TreeList, restore previously expanded items after redirect

[Diego]

Hi,

I need to restore the expanded state of a RadTreeList after a redirect. I am storing the expanded items in Session before the redirect. However, server-side expansion only expands the root, not the child items.

Can someone share a JavaScript example or approach to fully expand all previously expanded nodes after a redirect using the stored session data? Or maybe provide a better example on Server Side

Thanks!

This is the example I was using on server side, but it only expands the root element


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using Telerik.Web.UI;

namespace Momentum.Mapp.WebApp.SysMgmt.Groups
{
    public partial class GroupMaintenanceServer : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                RadTreeList1.NeedDataSource += RadTreeList1_NeedDataSource;
            }
        }

        protected void RadTreeList1_NeedDataSource(object sender, TreeListNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
        {
            RadTreeList1.DataSource = GetData();
        }

        protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            var expandedItems = RadTreeList1.Items
                .Where(i => i.Expanded)
                .Select(i => (int)i.GetDataKeyValue("ID"))
                .ToList();

            Session["ExpandedNodes"] = expandedItems;
        }

        protected void RadTreeList1_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (Session["ExpandedNodes"] is List<int> expanded)
            {
                foreach (TreeListDataItem item in RadTreeList1.Items)
                {
                    int id = (int)item.GetDataKeyValue("ID");
                    if (expanded.Contains(id))
                        item.Expanded = true;
                }
            }
        }

        protected void RadTreeList1_ItemCommand(object sender, TreeListCommandEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.CommandName == "EditItem" && e.Item is TreeListDataItem dataItem)
            {
                int id = (int)dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("ID");
                Response.Redirect($"EditPage.aspx?id={id}");
            }
        }

        // Ejemplo de datos simples
        private DataTable GetData()
        {
            var dt = new DataTable();
            dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(int));
            dt.Columns.Add("ParentID", typeof(int));
            dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));

            dt.Rows.Add(1, DBNull.Value, "Continents");
            dt.Rows.Add(2, 1, "Asia");
            dt.Rows.Add(3, 1, "Europe");
            dt.Rows.Add(4, DBNull.Value, "Oceans");
            dt.Rows.Add(5, 4, "Pacific");
            dt.Rows.Add(6, 4, "Atlantic");

            return dt;
        }

     }
}
