Winforms RadGridView - Expand all parents that meet search criteria

Hi Curtis Hines,

What comes up to my mind is to get the GridViewSearchRowInfo row. In its SearchProgressChanged event handler, you can get all cells that match the searching criteria. Then you can get their row info object and set their IsExpanded property to true.

GridViewSearchRowInfo searchRow; searchRow = this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow;
searchRow.SearchProgressChanged += SearchRow_SearchProgressChanged;

private void SearchRow_SearchProgressChanged(object sender, SearchProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.Cells != null)
    {
        foreach (GridSearchResultCellInfo cell in e.Cells)
        {
            cell.RowInfo.IsExpanded = true;
        }
    }            
}

I have tested this approach on my side and it is working. But the project is pretty simple and I am not sure if it is going to cover all your scenarios but you can try it. You can share if it is working in your application.
