I would like to disable the normal expand/collapse behavior when doubleclicking on a treeview node. Is this possible?

If not, if I add code to the Doubleclicked event handler to "take over" the expand/collapse state, would this happen before or after the node expands/collapses "under the hood"?

Hi Troy;

  Are you asking about doing this on a TreeView Control or a TreeView DataWindow?

Regards ... Chris

If it's a treeview, then take a look to ItemExpanding event. Returning 1 prevents treeview from expanding.

And of course you do have also itemcollapsing event...

Yes, that is a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, it seems to be in effect not just for doubleclick, but for single clicking on the node's negative sign - not sure exactly what that is called, but the box to the left of the node's label that normally allows you to expand/collapse that node. For my purposes, I need to allow collapsing that way but not by doubleclicking. There isn't that context passed in to the event, but maybe I can figure it out somehow.

What you should think is what is the difference between clicked and doubleclicked event. A single click will call only clicked event. But I believe that a doubleclick will call clicked and then doubleclicked event. So I'm not sure what you have in mind is possible.

Put code in the SelectionChanging event of the treeview in order to determine how to proceed, of IF you wish to proceed!
