ItemContainerGenerator returns null when item is collapsed

[Lauren Nickerson]

As the title says, the item exists within the RadTreeViewItem.Items, yet it returns null, even when searching by index, see the following screen shot:

The RadTreeView is data bound using several HierarchyDataTemplates, I tried this with regular items like so:

        <telerik:RadTreeView>
            <telerik:RadTreeViewItem x:Name="firstTelerikItem" Header="Item 1" IsExpanded="True">
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Item 1.1" x:Name="containerTelerik1_1" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Item 1.2" x:Name="containerTelerik1_2" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Item 1.3" x:Name="containerTelerik1_3" />
            </telerik:RadTreeViewItem>
            <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Item 2" />
            <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Item 3" />
        </telerik:RadTreeView>

And in there it works fine, but not with the databound ones.

Lmk, thanks!

Hi Lauren Nickerson,

Yes - this is the expected behavior - the container is not used and is null.

I see, is there any work around to get the container when the parent item is collapsed?
