Hello, I want to develop an application for Silverlight 4 that shows a list of workflows in a hierarchical structure, but when a row is expanded it must show also some custom information. To understand the application better I have attached 2 pictures: The first one shows all the list of workflows collapsed, and in the second one I have expanded some of the workflows and some of them have a hiercarchical structure. (for example "SharerScript" is inside "MasterScript").

The idea to implement a Telerik control is to add more functionality to my custom grid (like sorting columns or resize). I have studied 2 possibilities: The RadTreeListView and the Hierarchical GridView. I'm not sure that I can use the RadTreeListView because I have read that is for displaying only a homogeneous data, and when I expand a row it shows some custom information.
And about the Hierarchical GridView I have seen that displays the hierarchical data in nested RadGridViews, but I don't really need a second gridview to show the row details, so I don't know which is the best control to develop my idea.

Can you give me your opinion according to the images of my actual application?

Hi Ivan,


I would suggest you to use a RadGridView and to manage the hierarchical data in proper way.
To achieve exactly the same look from the pictures above you have to restyle the whole GridView in similar way.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
