Hi,

I was expecting the Validating or Validation event to fire after committing an edit of a node. Currently calling radTreeView BeginEdit() function to initiate editing and commit changes using Enter.

I need to validate the name and text of the edited tree node before accepting the change.  Is there something I need to enable for the event to fire?  Or should I be using a different event?

Regards,
Brad

Hi Brad,

The event that you are looking for is ValueValidating. Here is a code that examplifies its usage:
void radTreeView1_ValueValidating(object sender, CancelEventArgs e) 
        { 
            string value = this.radTreeView1.ActiveEditor.Value as string
            if (value.Contains("a")) 
            { 
                e.Cancel = true
            } 
        } 

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have further questions.

Sincerely yours,

Hi,

I have a question: Why don't you at least fix the documentation then?

http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/tree_nodesediting.html

Let me give you a scenario how things happen:
1) something does not work as expected
2) consult documentation
3) test what documentation says
4) something still does not work
5) consult forum
6a) if you're lucky someone else had the same problem before you, in which case you get the solution
6b) otherwise, you ask the question in the forum, you get the answer a few days later (if it was Friday, then you get the answer on Tuesday/Wednesday next week)

Telerik, why do things need to be so complicated?

Hello Dragoljub,

Thank you for pointing this out. Your feedback is very valuable to us. Documentation has already been fixed, but the change will become visible in a couple of weeks.
