    I have databound RadTreeViewItem.IsExpanded in my item container style, but when the item is created, it ignores the binding (which is set to true) and sets the property to false.  I found another thread in the forum describing the same behavior happening with the IsChecked property.

    Call stack:

      Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll!Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeViewItem.IsExpanded.set(bool value) Line 390 C#
    > Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll!Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeViewItem.OnIsExpandedChanged(bool oldValue, bool newValue) Line 1186 C#
      Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll!Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeView.RestoreContainerProperties(object item, Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeViewItem treeViewItem) Line 678 C#

    Hello Brian,

    I tried to reproduce the reported behavior on our side with our latest official release and it seems that the code works as expected. Could you please take a look at the attached project and let us know if there is something that I missed? It will be great if you can change the code so that the issue can be reproduced on our side and send it over. By doing this we will be able to further investigate the possible reasons behind.

    Hi Brian,

    I have the same problem.

    The Binding continues until I manually expand or collapse the node.
    At that moment, the Binding is stopped.

    The problem also exists in the example you sent.

    I demonstrated the problem in the video. See attached link.

    Hello Brian,

    To update the property of the model (DataItem) when you expand/collapse a node manually you can set the Mode of the binding to TwoWay.
    <Style TargetType="telerik:RadTreeViewItem" x:Key="MyStyle">
        <Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding IsExpanded, Mode=TwoWay}" />
    </Style>

    I have the same problem. I have the IsExpanded Binding bound two way, the bound property value in the node view model is initialized to true, before the item becomes visible. Then this value is set to false with the following call stack. Please advice how to stop that. Otherwise I cannot define a preexpanded tree.

    The problem seems to occure with nodes that have no child nodes. It seems that the control resets the is expanded state to false in this case.

    Hello Arthur,

    I've tested the reported behavior with the latest version of Telerik UI for WPF, but I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on my side. Can you check the attached project and let me know if I am missing anything?

    Hello Martin,

    I have opened a ticket and discussed the issue there. The problem occures, when the virtualization is turned on. Please see ticket 1451753 and the steps to reproduce. I hope that this issue reaches the developers as this is completely unexpected, that the virtualization changes the state of the view models.

    Regards,

    Arthur
