Saving and restoring state of TreeView checkboxes

[marksweat]

My app has a TreeView with tristate checkboxes. The state is stored in a database. I'm wondering about the best way to save and restore state for parent nodes that are Indeterminate.

If I simply save the collection of nodes I get from the treeview.Checked method and restore the same nodes (as checked), the TreeView doesn't end up looking like the original state. Parent nodes that are indeterminate are restored as Checked and all their children are restored as checked.

Do I need to go through the Checked nodes and remove the ones that are indeterminate for storage? This seems to work differently in the current version of the TreeView than it did in a version from a few years back.

Hi Mark,

Have you tried making avail of RadPersistenceFramework for this scenario?
