Select-Unselect Child nodes based

[NLV]

Hello Team,

I'm facing the following issue with the Telerik Rad Tree View.

I've a tree view with multiple parent and child node relations. For instance consider a node A which has 5 child nodes a,b,c,d and e. Now i've set the CheckChildNodes property of the control to true.

Now i select the node A. So it will in turn select a,b,c,d,e. I'm unchecking a,b. Then i'm doing a postback which goes to another page and shows some content pertaining to the nodes selected. Now i click the "back" button in the browser and come to the original page. So the treeview shows the node A as selected and c,d,e as selected (and a,b as unselected). Fine till now.

Now if i unselect the node A, it is selecting all its child nodes a,b,c,d,e. If i check the node A, it is unselecting all its child nodes a,b,c,d,e. Exactly opposite!

Could some one provide some insights in this issue?

Thank you.

Regards
NLV

I guess it is a small glitch with the control. Check out the link for a sample.

Please help me with a fix for this at the earliest possible.

Hello NLV,

Please find attached the modified version of the page here.
Now the checked state will be preserved upon clicking the Back browser button.

Thank you for your reply. That fixed the issue.

Is there a client side function to check all the nodes of a tree view equivalent to the server side CheckAllNodes() ? I've hundreds of nodes. I dont want to loop through everything.

Thank you.

Hello NLV,

I am afraid you need to loop through all nodes and check them manually. Currently there is no single method to check/uncheck all nodes but I have added it as a feature request in our Public Issue Tracking System and you can go and vote for it here:

The file's no longer available; what was the solution?

Hello Attila,

The problem with the TreeView is that after the back button is pressed, it loses all it's state (checked nodes, selected nodes etc.). The CheckBoxes however keep their state. So in order to recreate the checked state of the treeview you have to hook on it's ClientLoad event and manually check all nodes that have their checkboxes checked. 

Here's the code that does the trick:

function clientLoad(sender) {
    var tree = sender;
    var allNodes = tree.get_allNodes();

    for (var i = 0; i < allNodes.length; i++) {
        if ($telerik.$(">div>.rtChk", allNodes[i].get_element()).is(":checked")) {
            allNodes[i].check();
        }
    }
}

 
All the best,
