Control location in TreeViewAdv

[Nicolas]

Hi, I am trying to change the location of all the controls in a TreeViewAdv, and apparently, it is not taking the value. I tried several other variants with the same result. Thanks in advance! - Nicolas

For i = 0 To TreeViewAdv1.Controls.Count - 1

TreeViewAdv1.Controls(i).Location = New Point(200, 0)

Next

Hi Nicolas, 

 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support. 

 

We can customize the location of nodes in TreeViewAdv by using the property named “Indent” and each custom controls location can be customized by using the property named ”CustomControlLocation”. Please make use of the below code example. 

 

Code Example[C#]: 

 

'To set the location of the Nodes. 

Me.treeViewAdv1.Indent += 10 

'To Set the location for the custom control. 

For i As Integer = 0 To Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes.Count - 1 

Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(i).CustomControlLocation = New Point(Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(i).CustomControlLocation.X + 10, Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(i).CustomControlLocation.Y) 

Next i

Hi, I tried this, and the setting of location is working using the "CustomControlLocation", but not quite as intended. Apparently, this location is a location which is dependent of the given name of the node. So, even if we use the same X and Y location for all nodes, the controls will still be misaligned. I would like these controls to be perfectly aligned with each other, thanks in advance - Nicolas

Hi Nicolas,  

  

Thank you for your update.  

  

We assume that your requirement is to align all the custom control in the same X and Y location. If so the reported requirement can be achieved by finding the largest node from the TreeViewAdv and assigning the proper control location. Please make use of the below code example.  

  

Code Example[VB]:  

  

Private Sub buttonAdv2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles buttonAdv2.Click  

            'To Set the location for the custom control.  

            Dim node As TreeNodeAdv = Nothing  

            Dim longest As String = Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(0).Nodes(0).Text  

            'To find the largest test from the collection of child node.   

            For Each tree As TreeNodeAdv In Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(0).Nodes  

                If tree.Text.Length > longest.Length Then  

                    node = tree  

                    longest = node.Text  

                End If  

            Next  

            'To set the customcontrol location.  

            For Each custombound As TreeNodeAdv In Me.treeViewAdv1.Nodes(0).Nodes  

                custombound.CustomControlLocation = New Point((node.TextBounds.X + node.TextBounds.Width - custombound.TextBounds.Width), custombound.CustomControlLocation.Y)  

            Next  

  

        End Sub
