Hello,
I have a RadTreeView with several levels of nodes. I define a name of a node and after click on a button I need to show a node with this name. I know how select the node and expand parent nodes but I do not succeed to scroll to the selected node . I checked many examples by Google and in this forum but all they do not work. Particularly, example from Help does not work:
function ScrollNode()
{
   var tree = $find("<%= RadTreeView1.ClientID %>");
   var node = tree.findNodeByText("My Node");
   if(node)
   {
       node.scrollIntoView();
   }


So I really need a working example of this operation (preferably, in the client side).

Hello eugen100,

If your RadTreeView doesn't implement scrolling (meaning you don't have a height set on it) this method will not work. In my experience it only works when you have a height set on the RadTreeView to create the scrollbars. If you don't want to set a height on your RadTreeView, you can use this method from the Telerik static client library. Like so:

function ScrollNode()
{
   var tree = $find("<%= RadTreeView1.ClientID %>");
   var node = tree.findNodeByText("My Node");
   if(node)
   {
       $telerik.scrollIntoView(node.get_element());
   }
}  

I hope that helps.

Hello, Kevin
Thank you for your answer. You are right - I didn't added Height to RadTreeView. Now I added this property and also I call

selectedNode.scrollIntoView()

with delay (using setTimeout). In this case it really scrolls to the selected node. But without delay it does not work. Also method you suggested ($telerik.scrollIntoView(node.get_element()); ) does not work  without Height. In any case thank you

Hello Eugen100,

You can also refer to this help topic where the same functionality is explained. As for the scrollIntoView event it is expected that it doesn't work when the Height property is not set because there is no scroll area at all.

Hope this will be helpful.

Hi,

I solved the problem using the code below (using jQuery):

function ScrollNode()
{
   var tree = $find("<%= RadTreeView1.ClientID %>");
   var node = tree.findNodeByText("My Node");
   if(node)
   {
       $('html, body').animate({
                    scrollTop: node.get_element().offsetTop
                }, 2000);
   }
}

I hope it may help
