For the TreeView control, is it possible to have a data structure where the sub-items belong to an element other than one called "items"? For example, if I have the following structure:
I know I can use a template for the "category" element at the top level, but I'm not sure how I can specify that the sub-items are in the "nodes" element.
$("#treeView").kendoTreeView({ dataSource: [ { category: "A", nodes: [{name:"Node 1"}, {name:"Node 2"}]} ]});I know I can use a template for the "category" element at the top level, but I'm not sure how I can specify that the sub-items are in the "nodes" element.
<script id="treeview-template" type="text/kendo-ui-template"> # if (item.category) { # #= item.category # # } # // How do I now tell it to render the "nodes" element as children to the category element?</script>1 Answer, 1 is accepted

Hello Andre,

This is currently not supported. The JSON should contain "items". This will be addressed once we have a true hierarchical DataSource and the treeview binds to it.
