Org Chart Control

[Bill]

I could not find where we use to make suggestions about new controls, but I would like to see plans for an Org Chart control.
I am currently using this one:
http://www.smartwebcontrols.com/SampleCode/SmartChartLite/OrgChartwithBackground.aspx
But it would be cool to see you guys develop one to go with your incredible suite. I have used the telerik controls since you guys started, but this would be a great edition.
If not, does anyone have a suggestion about other "Affordable" Org Chart controls?
Thanks,
~bg

Hello Bill,

Unfortunately, we cannot presently give you a timeframe for implementing this feature. Still, you are the first to request such functionality and the priority of this feature is very low.

However, I'd suggest you take a look at our RadTreeView for Silverlight that supports horizontal expanding and could be used as an organigram. We have a similar example that shows the approach - Lookless Layout Support.

Kind regards,

I too would like to see Telerik release a Org Chart control.

I also am currently using the smartwebcontrol chart. I searched the web constantly before I "settled" on the smart web control. I use their chart in conjuction with the RadGrid and when the chart posts back I update the rad grid with new data. It is an ugly mixture and would much rather have a telerik org chart that would mesh much better with the other telerik controls I use.

I'm sure any org chart control Telerik released would control the market for such controls. 

*If you read this post and would also like an org chart control post a response and let's get some motivation behind a new control!*

Hi chabian,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. As Paul noted, we do not have immediate plans for org charts but we do take into account the demand rate for a given feature, so we will consider this when discussing our plans. Still, I believe you will understand we cannot engage with any specific terms and/or commitment.

Kind regards,

I agree.  This org chart would be a nice addition.

I reckon in the meantime, I'll have to figure something else out.

[Doug]

I supposed I jumped into this late, but I just spent an hour perusing the web for an org chart component, and the best thing out there is ILog (which is primarily Flex) and it's $700 (ouch).  I would sign any petition to see an org chart component in the Telerik suite.

[Chris]

Org and other diagrams are part from specialized controls f.e. mindfusion netdiagram. Its no problem to combine this controls with telerik controls in websites or applications. And a solution is immediately possible ....

Just google for Organisation Chart Component and you'll find one.

[Stuart]

Yes and organogram structure control will be totally cool though I believe it would be especially difficult to code, also what mite be worth looking into is extending this control to draw mindmaps.

I find it to be a very nifty feature lets say the case where teams of developers or marketers need to get together and draw up a rapid action plan to achieve a goal and need to display it visually in real time for everyone to view, with a mix of axaj and such a component it will be a breeze.

Without any real silverlight org chart controls out there, this could get you a whole new market.

Plus I could get a ton of new dashboard/automation projects. =)

Please add my vote.

one more from me ...

[Jonathan]

1 more from me, any word if an org chart control is coming soon?

[Shaun Peet]

I think the new RadSiteMap would be a better candidate as the closest control to achieve this.

One more vote for an org chart control. It would be a great addition since many of us develop business apps...

I really need an Organisation Chart Control. It would be very nice to have it into the Telerik ASP.NET AJAX Controls.

Is there any status update on this type of control from the Telerik Team? I am currently working on an HR module and this will be very useful so I would like to know if it is in the works or not.

Thanks!

[Steve]

Yeah, I know I just voted on this a few months ago, but technically it's "Next year" so I'm +1ing it again

Hello,

Glad to hear that you added support for presenting an org chart in Ajax. Does the Org Chart allow collapse and expand? Are there events for selection changed?

Thanks!

[Sebastian]

Hello Pinkle,

The first version of our AJAX org chart will not support there features. I will pass your feedback to our developers to be contemplated for the future versions of the control.
