Change node template?
posted

Is it at all possible to change the template for how nodes are displayed in a XamDataTree?  See the attached image for example.  Here, I want two levels of nodes.  For the child nodes, I want them displayed as a list with three columns and however many rows needed.  In the attached image, there would be 9 sub-nodes below the main node Alarm.  Any suggestions how to accomplish something like this?

Thanks,

Arthur

    Hello Arthur,

    XamDataTree is designed to display one node at a specific level and arranging the nodes in multiple columns is not supported. You can try to modify the default XamDataTreeNodeControl template so that on node consists of three items separated by white space. This will probably require the changes of the data source as well since the node should receive the data from to more items. You can find the default style in the generic.xaml file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Infragistics\2014.2\WPF\DefaultStyles folder if you would like to try this approach.
    You can also suggest a new product idea this feature to be implemented at http://ideas.infragistics.com. Additional details on the process could be found below.

    Steps to create your idea:
                   
    1. Log into the Infragistics Product Ideas site at http://ideas.infragistics.com (creating a new login if needed).
    2. Navigate to the product / platform channel of your choice (e.g. WPF, Windows Forms, ASP.NET, HTML5 / Ignite UI, iOS / NucliOS, etc.)
    3. Add your product idea and be sure to be specific and provide as much detail as possible. Explain the context in which a feature would be used, why it is needed, why it can’t be accomplished today, and who would benefit from it. You can even add screenshots to build a stronger case. Remember that for your suggestion to be successful, you need other members of the community to vote for it. Be convincing!

    The benefits of submitting the product idea yourself include:
    - Direct communication with our product management team regarding your product idea.
    - Notifications whenever new information regarding your idea becomes available.
