Hi,
I have hierarchical data that I need to display as nested hierarchies. I'm currently letting the xamDataGrid display it a a treeview but would like the nodes to be fully expanded always without the option to collapse. So the questions are how do I force the treenodes to fully expand initially and how do I hide the expansion indicators (+/-)? Or is there a better way to do this? I'm open to any and all creative ideas.
Secondly, I need to combine two datafields into one for display (i.e city, state). Does the databinding support this in some way or do I have to create a property (I'm displaying a hierarchy of objects with nested collections of objects) in the object that does the concatenation? I've read the help about complex data and I don't think my need is addressed by it and I saw another post that expressed the same need and it was never responded to. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Glenn
Hi Glenn,
I'm dealing with the same 'expand' problem. There is a FieldSettings property named "ExpandableFieldRecordExpansionMode" that has an "AlwaysExpanded" option but I can't get it to work. I've tried applying it at the Grid level and at the FieldLayout levels without any results. I talked to a support rep yesterday who couldn't figure it out. I've submitted it as an email support request and if I get any response, I'll update you.

Thanks Will!
I had tried the same property and, like you, it didn't do anything for me either. I guess we'll just have to wait...
