MultiSelectTreeComponent

Represents the Kendo UI MultiSelectTree component for Angular.

Selector

kendo-multiselecttree

Export Name

Accessible in templates as #kendoMultiSelectTreeInstance="kendoMultiSelectTree"

Inputs

clearButton

(default: true) If set to true, renders a button on hovering over the component. Clicking this button resets the value of the component to undefined and triggers the change event.

disabled

Sets the disabled state of the component.

fetchChildren

A function which provides the child nodes for a given parent node.

filterable

(default: false) Renders the built-in input element for filtering the MultiSelectTree. If set to true, the component emits the filterChange event, which can be used to filter the MultiSelectTree manually. A built-in filtering implementation is available to use with the kendoMultiSelectTreeHierarchyBinding and kendoMultiSelectTreeFlatBinding directives.

hasChildren

A function which determines if a specific node has child nodes.

isNodeExpanded

A function that is executed for each data item and determines if a specific node is expanded.

isNodeVisible

A callback which determines whether a tree node should be rendered as hidden. The utility .k-display-none class is used to hide the nodes. Useful for custom filtering implementations.

itemDisabled

A function that is executed for each data item and determines if a specific item is disabled.

listHeight

Sets the height of the options list. By default, listHeight is 200px.

The listHeight property affects only the list of options and not the whole popup container. To set the height of the popup container, use popupSettings.height.

loadOnDemand

(default: false) Indicates whether the child nodes will be fetched on node expand or will be initially prefetched.

loading

Sets and gets the loading state of the MultiSelectTree.

placeholder

The hint which is displayed when the component is empty.

readonly

Sets the read-only state of the component.

textField

The fields of the data item that provide the text content of the nodes inside the MultiSelectTree (see example). If the textField input is set to an array, each hierarchical level uses the field that corresponds to the same index in the array, or the last item in the array.

The textField property can be set to point to a nested property value - e.g. category.name.

valueDepth

Sets the levels in the data set where the values can be found when valueField is an Array. The field serves to correctly allocate a data item used when the MultiSelectTree is initialized with a value.

valueField

The fields of the data item that provide the value of the nodes inside the MultiSelectTree (see example). If the valueField input is set to an array, each hierarchical level uses the field that corresponds to the same index in the array, or the last item in the array.

The valueField property can be set to point to a nested property value - e.g. category.id.

valuePrimitive

Specifies the type of the selected value (more information and example). If set to true, the selected value has to be a primitive one.

checkableSettings

Defines the checkable settings of the MultiSelecTree nodes. If no value is provided, the default CheckableSettings are applied.

data

Sets the data of the MultiSelectTree.

The data has to be provided in an array-like list with objects.

dataItems

Keeps the current dataItems object in order to resolve selection. Needs to be provided when when programmatically setting a value and valuePrimitive is set to true.

popupSettings

Configures the popup of the MultiSelectTree.

The available options are:

• animate: Boolean—Controls the popup animation. By default, the open and close animations are enabled.
• width: Number | String—Sets the width of the popup container. By default, the width of the host element is used. If set to auto, the component automatically adjusts the width of the popup and no item labels are wrapped.
• height: Number—Sets the height of the popup container.
• popupClass: String—Specifies a list of CSS classes that are used to style the popup.
• appendTo: "root" | "component" | ViewContainerRef—Specifies the component to which the popup will be appended.

tabindex

Specifies the tabindex of the component.

value

Sets the value of the MultiSelectTree. It can either be of the primitive (string, numbers) or of the complex (objects) type. To define the type, use the valuePrimitive option.

tagMapper

A user-defined callback function which receives an array of selected data items and maps them to an array of tags.
