[Solved] Use the Same Template for Parent and Children

[WILLIAM]

I'm having this issue as well.  The ItemSource for the treeview is an Office with a list of Children offices so I want to use the same template.

In that article is suggested not setting ItemTemplate property.  However, that's the only way I can get it to display the parent correctly.  Also, the children are not displaying at all.  Below is my template and treeview settings.  Am I missing a binding somewhere or do I have some property not set/not set correctly?  It's probably something simple.

Thanks for your help!!

<DataTemplate x:Key="OrgUnitsItemTemplate">
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <telerik:Label Content="{Binding ParentOrgUnit.Description}" />
    </StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>

<telerik:RadTreeView Name="uxOrgUnits"
    SelectionMode="Extended" IsLineEnabled="True" ItemsOptionListType="CheckList"
    IsOptionElementsEnabled="True" IsDragDropEnabled="False"
    IsRootLinesEnabled="True" IsTriStateMode="True"
    ItemTemplate="{StaticResource OrgUnitsItemTemplate}">
</telerik:RadTreeView>

Hello William,

In order to display hierarchical information in the RadTreeView control, you need to define its ItemTemplate as a HierarchicalDataTemplate. And in order to display a hierarchy of items, which dept is undefined, you should not set the HierarchicalDataTemplate.ItemTemplate property.

I attached a sample solution demonstrating how to implement your approach. Let me know if it helps.
