Parent of SelectedItems

[Glenn]

I am currently spinning through all the SelectedItems. Is there any way to determine what is the parent node for each object in the SelectedNodes collection?

Thanks,
Glenn

Hi Glenn,

Yes - you can use the ParentItem property.

Thanks Valentin,

However, I am binding the RadTreeViewItem to a business object and when I do something like this:

if (this.RadTreeView1.SelectedItems.Count > 0) {
      foreach (telerik.RadTreeViewItem obj2 in this.RadTreeView1.SelectedItems) {
          _Buffer.Add(obj2.DataContext, obj2.ParentItem.DataContext);
      }
  }

I receive an InvalidCastException - unable to cast my business object to type 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeViewItem'

Thanks,
Glenn

Hello Glenn,

This is because the SelectedItems collection contains the list of the busines objects. You need to get the container that has been generated for your object. Please check this help article:
