RadPanelItemBinding Add property ExpandedImageUrl in binding

[ncollet]

Hello,

I use a RadPanelBar and I want to use a sqldatasource. There’s no problem if I don’t need to use the “ExpandedImageUrl” panelbar’s item’s member.

In my code I got something like that :

            DataSet dsMenu = new DataSet();

            dsMenu.Tables.Add("Menu");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("IDMenu");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_Text");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_Tooltip");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_ImageUrl");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_ExpandedImageUrl");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_NavigateUrl");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_Target");

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Menu_ParentID");

 

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows.Add();

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["IDMenu"] = "1";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_Text"] = " ";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_Tooltip"] = "Mon espace";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_ImageUrl"] = "~/images/espace-over.gif";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_ExpandedImageUrl"] = "~/images/espace-over.gif";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_NavigateUrl"] = "";

            dsMenu.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Menu_Target"] = "";

            RadPanelBar1.DataFieldID = "IDMenu";

            RadPanelBar1.DataFieldParentID = "Menu_ParentID";

            RadPanelBar1.DataTextField = "Menu_Text";

            RadPanelItemBinding item = new RadPanelItemBinding();

            item.ImageUrlField = "Menu_ImageUrl";

            item.ToolTipField = "Menu_Tooltip";

            item.NavigateUrlField = "Menu_NavigateUrl";

            item.TargetField = "Menu_Target";

            RadPanelBar1.DataBindings.Add(item);

My problem is that I haven’t member for my item to manage the ExpandedImageUrl like it’s possible with HoveredImageUrl

Is this just an omission or a will of the developer. In the first case, is it possible to enhance the possibility of RadPanelItemBinding

Thanks for your answer.

Hello ncollet,

At the time being the ExpandedImageUrl property cannot be mapped by using RadPanelItemBinding. You can however use the ItemDataBound event of the panelbar:

e.Item.ExpandedImageUrl = (string)DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem, "Menu_ExpandedImageUrl")

I hope this helps,
