Hello, I just have a simple question is it possible to remove the expand arrow? I just want the group to always display all the items without the option to collapse. Also, I have some items which are not in a group because the column they are grouped by is empty. Is it possible to hide the group area for these?
Thank you

Hello, Willy,
If you want to hide the expand/collapse arrow for the groups in RadListView you can use the following code snippet in the VisualItemFormatting event:
private void radListView1_VisualItemFormatting(object sender, ListViewVisualItemEventArgs e)
{
SimpleListViewGroupVisualItem groupItem= e.VisualItem as SimpleListViewGroupVisualItem;
if (groupItem != null)
{
//hide the group arrow
groupItem.ToggleElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
}
}As to the question about the group size, note that RadListView offers the GroupItemSize property. Thus, you can specify the desired height for the group item. However, it affects all the group items. However, if you set the AllowArbitraryItemHeight property to true, the groups with empty text will be almost invisible:
public RadForm1()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.radListView1.VisualItemFormatting += radListView1_VisualItemFormatting;
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
this.radListView1.Items.Add("Item" + i);
}
radListView1.EnableCustomGrouping = true;
radListView1.ShowGroups = true;
ListViewDataItemGroup docGroup = new ListViewDataItemGroup("Documents");
ListViewDataItemGroup diskGroup = new ListViewDataItemGroup("");
radListView1.Groups.Add(docGroup);
radListView1.Groups.Add(diskGroup);
foreach (ListViewDataItem item in radListView1.Items)
{
if (radListView1.Items.IndexOf(item) % 2 == 0)
{
item.Group = docGroup;
}
else
{
item.Group = diskGroup;
}
}
this.radListView1.AllowArbitraryItemHeight = true;
}I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
