Not able to set text on radpanelitem clientside when item is expanding/collapsing

[Jan Pfeffer]

Hey at Telerik

I am trying to set the text of a radpanelitem when the item is either expanding or collapsing.

I have set the a text on the value attribute and i would like to switch the text to nothing when the item is collapsed and the text from the value attribute when the item is expanded.

I use the method set_text, but it doesn't seem to work.

I have attached a sample project showing my problem here.

I hope u can help me.

Hello Jan,

You can use the following line of code in order to get the desired functionality of the RadPanelBar:

function rpbPlaygroundClientItemExpand(sender, eventArgs) {
               var radMenuItem = eventArgs.get_item();
               var value = eventArgs.get_item().get_value();
               radMenuItem.set_text(value);
               $telerik.$(".rpText").css("display", "inherit");
           }
           function rpbPlaygroundClientItemCollapse(sender, eventArgs) {
               eventArgs.get_item().set_text("");
           }
