React TreeView icon and images

Tree node with icons

Display nodes with labels and icons to present the content in a more readable format. This is helpful in making a typical directory tree and file system.


Checkbox

It provides built-in support for checkboxes, allowing users to select more than one item. The TreeView checkbox has a tri-state mode also, which is applicable only for parent nodes. In this mode, the parent node will go into the indeterminate state when the child nodes are partially checked.

Drag and drop

Nodes can be dragged and dropped at all levels of the same TreeView.

React TreeView component drag and drop inside a tree

Inside the tree

Tree nodes can be dragged and dropped from one parent node to another within the same level or at different levels.

React TreeView component drag and drop between trees

To an outside tree

Extending the drop behavior allows users to drop tree nodes from one TreeView to another.

React TreeView component dragging and dropping to external container

External container

Drop tree nodes to any external container or component by extending the TreeView node drop action.


Multiple node selection

Allows users to select multiple nodes. When the drag-and-drop feature is enabled, all the selected nodes can be dragged at the same time.

React TreeView editable nodes

Editable nodes

Edit the tree nodes’ label text on the client side by double-clicking it. When editing TreeView nodes, the TreeView data source will also be updated with the modified data.


Sorting tree nodes

Render the TreeView nodes in the ascending or descending order based on the label text for improved readability.

React TreeView node template

Node template

The React TreeView component can be customized through its node template support, which allows defining a custom structure for tree nodes. You can use node templates specifically for parent nodes, child nodes, or both, and include images and any custom element structure.


Expand collapse icons

Easily customize the expand and collapse icons based on the requirement of your application.

React TreeView expand collapse icons customization


React TreeView tooltip

Tooltips for tree nodes

It supports tooltips for tree nodes that display information about the nodes while hovering over them. You can bind a tooltip from a data source along with node fields.


Context menu

A context menu can be integrated with the React TreeView component to open when a node is right-clicked. The menu helps users perform node manipulations such as adding, removing, and renaming nodes.

React TreeView text wrap

Text wrap

A node’s text wraps when it reaches edge of the TreeView. The node’s height will be adjusted automatically based on the content.


Tree Node Customization

It allows you to customize the tree nodes by level. For example, apply specific styles to leaf nodes, first child nodes, and second level nodes, etc.

React TreeView TreeNode customization


React TreeView TreeNode validation

Tree Node Validation

You can add validation to the tree node’s text on editing like required, a minimum or maximum length, etc.


Accessibility

Keyboard navigation in React TreeView

Keyboard navigation

The React TreeView component ensures that every cell is accessible using the keyboard. Major features like sort, select, and edit can be performed using keyboard commands alone; no mouse interaction is required. This helps in creating highly accessible applications using this component.

Accessibility and screen reader support in React TreeView

Screen reader

The React TreeView has complete WAI-ARIA accessibility support. The Data Grid UI includes high-contrast visual elements that help visually impaired people to have the best viewing experience. Also, valid UI descriptions are easily accessible through assistive technologies such as screen readers.

Show right-to-left language in React TreeView

Right to left (RTL)

Right-to-left rendering allows displaying the text and layout of the TreeView from right to left. This improves the user experience and accessibility for RTL languages.
