Prevent a node from being selected.

[Sylvain]

Hiya,

I'm currently evaluating the controls and I like what I see so far.

I'm testing out the RadTreeView and for the life of me, can't find anything that would easily let me prevent a node from being selected.  There is a BeforeSelect event that I handle but that doesn't have a Cancel property in the RadTreeViewEventArgs.

In the MS TreeView, you simply set e.Cancel = true and done, the new node doesn't get selected.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Sylvain

Hi Sylvain,

Thank you for writing.

The BeforeSelect event is obsolete. Please, use the Selecting event of RadTreeView in the way shown in the codeblock below:

void radTreeView1_Selecting(object sender, RadTreeViewCancelEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Node.Text.Contains("Personal"))
            {
                e.Cancel = true;
            }
        }

If you have any additional questions, please contact us.

Wow.  Very impressed with the quick response.

As it turns out, I wasn't using the latest version of the controls.  Downloaded them this morning and presto, works like a charm :)
