Rad Grid forgets collapsed/expanded state when clickin on edit

[Christoph]

Dear Sirs

I ran into a nasty problem thats really annoying me. I setup a Rad Grid with various groupings.
I can now expand and collapse those groups and it gets remembered over postbacks.
Once i click into "edit" on an item, all collapsed / expanded groups revert to their original state (either all expanded or all collapsed)

Why isnt it keeping my collapse/expand state?

Thanks for the help

Hello Christoph,

I have seen an interesting Code library submission which demostrates how to persist the expanded state of the Groups on Rebind. Go through it and see whether it give some insights.
Persist Groups Expanded State on Rebind

Thanks,

Just to clarify, I have the same problem as the OP.  

1. In the current release , the RadGrid does not save it's expanded/collapsed state when the grid transitions from read mode to edit mode ?

2.Is the proposed solution here, still the best solution, as it's been quite a long time, and seems the Telerik control should do this already?

 

Thanks.

Hello Ryan,

You can use the RetainExpandStateOnRebind property to achieve this requirement.
I hope this will prove helpful.
