Update SelectedNode.DataBoundItem

[jed]

Hi,

i am trying to build an editable TreeView:

if selectedNade change the current selected value goes to a radtextbox:

private void radTreeView1_SelectedNodeChanged(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTreeViewEventArgs e)
        {
                TestItem item = radTreeView1.SelectedNode.DataBoundItem as TestItem;
                if (item != null)
                {
                    radTextBox1.Text = item.Name;
                    radTextBox1.Enabled = true;
                }
        }

on KeyUp Event i store the value back:

private void radTextBox1_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (radTreeView1.SelectedNode != null)
    {
        TestItem item = radTreeView1.SelectedNode.DataBoundItem as TestItem;
        if (item != null)
        {
            item.Name = radTextBox1.Text;
        }
    }
}

this doesn't work immediately, but if i click on another node then the last node updates correctly. i tried refresh(), update() and implementing INotifyPropertyChanged, but nothing worked

is live updateing possible?

greetings

Hello Jed,

Thank you for contacting Telerik Support.

Please find attached a sample project where changing the text in the RadTextBox immediately affects the corresponding RadTreeNode. For this purpose it is necessary to use BindingList instead of List and TestItem class should implement INotifyPropertyChanged as it is described in the following help article.

public class TestItem : System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged

{

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;



    protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)

    {

        if (PropertyChanged != null)

        {

            PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));

        }

    }



//some other properties and fields



   public string Name

   {

       get

       {

           return _name;

       }

       set

       {

           _name = value;

           OnPropertyChanged("Name");

       }

   }



}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions, I would be glad to help.
