    DESCRIPTION

    SOLUTION

    RadPanelBar [v.4.x]

    SOLUTION
    We are using the PersistStateInCookie property to persist the state between pages (expanded and selected items).



    RadPanelBar [v.3.x]

    SOLUTION
    The items from the first root group (Bekleidung) use the FindPanelItemById to find the item and make it Selected. Whereas, the items from the second root group (Pistolen) use a query string passed along with the NavigateUrl value from the data table to specify the SelectedPanelItem.

    Either way works. Just note that if you are using the second method, the NavigateUrl value must be of the form: "Pistolen1.aspx?sid=Pistolen2_1"

    Hi,

    I use this code [RadPanelBar v.3.x only] to select the item in other level diferentent that the first level.

    1 PanelItem selected = RPBCatalogoDer.FindPanelItemById(MenuID);  
    2             if (selected != null)  
    3             {  
    4                 selected.Expanded = true;  
    5                 RPBCatalogoDer.SelectedPanelItem = selected;  
    6                 while (selected.ParentItem != null && selected.ParentItem.ID != "RPBCatalogoDer")  
    7                 {  
    8                     selected = (PanelItem)selected.ParentItem;  
    9                     selected.Expanded = true;  
    10                 }  
    11             } 

    RPBCatalogoDer -> Is the name of the PanelBar
    MenuID -> Is the Numeric ID of the item

    Thanks,
    William V
