What control could I use to represent deep hierarchy structure?

[Pooya]

I'm going to build a hierarchy structure. Each layer contains about 12 columns and in total I'll have 7 layers of hierarchy.

I have used RadGrid Hierarchy nested table features on some of the pages which had 1-2 nested tables and it works fine, however, on this page because mainly there are 7 layers of hierarchy I can't use RadGrid Nested Tables as the 7th Nested table gets opened in the middle of the page in that case!

What other control could I use to represent such structure?

E.g. Master Detail View, not sure?

Thanks,

Hello Pooya,

If you want to use Master DetailView, then one suggestion is to implement Hierarchy with DetailTables collection. Check the following demo which explains the same.
Grid / Several Tables at a Level.

Also check the following help documentation which explains how to bind detailtables in hierarchical grid.
Hierarchical data-binding using declarative relations.

Thanks,
Princy.

Please read my question more carefully.

Like I said, I've already used DetailsTable of RadGrid but for this page it doesn't work for the reason mentioned (too many detailstables can't fit on the page).

Maybe an option would be to Add one RadGrid Per Layer and they sit under each other.

Clicking on a row on the Top RadGrid, reloads the RadGrid underneath and so on.

So my page's height would increase.

How would you design such scenario?

Representing it like Master/Detail View: http://asp.syncfusion.com/sfaspnetsamplebrowser/9.2.0.138/Web/Grid.Grouping.Web/Samples/4.0/Populate%20Data/MasterDetail/cs/MasterDetail.aspx

7 Grid, one over the other.

Does RadGrid support this kind of scenario? I'd like to be able to still use its exporting, sorting and paging features.

Many thanks,

[Pooya]
