Sorting in treeView

[Prash]

hello,

I have a requirement that the treeView should get sorted according to some parameter.
Is this possible to achieve ?
A code sample would be helpful.

Thanks and regards

Hello Prash,

Here is how you can sort your items:

treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "C" });
treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "F" });
treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "A" });
treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "D" });
treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "B" });
treeView.Items.Add(new RadTreeViewItem() { Header = "E" });

treeView.Items.SortDescriptions.Add(new System.ComponentModel.SortDescription("Header", System.ComponentModel.ListSortDirection.Ascending));

Let me know if you have further questions.

Hello Tihomir,

Thanks for the reply, but I have already tried it, I have the treeview which has more than five levels. Sorting is working fine for the 2nd level onwards but not for the first. Can you please reply on the same.

Thanks and regards

Hello,

I have observed the treeView closely, and have come to know that the treeview sorting is behaving erroneously and the multilevel treeview is not getting sorted properly.

There is a root node, site, and the first level children are the network groups, and the hierarchy goes on till 5 levels. but the sorting is not there in the 2nd level and the 4th level.

can you please look into this.
Thanks and regards

Hello Prash,

Maybe I am missing something, but the code I sent you in my first reply sorts the *first* level of items and you are saying you tried it and it works from the second level onwards. I tested the sample with a hierarchy of 6 levels and sorting seems to work fine. Can you please send me a sample project which demonstrates your scenario in which sorting does not work?

All the best,

Hello,
I am preparing the sample for the same, the problem here is the Demand On Load, i guess, because the normal samples are working fine for the sorting, but we have implemented the treeview with Demand on Load, this may be the problem i guess. Can you please look into the On demand load on treeview for sorting. That will be helpful.
