Way to make parent editable, but leaf not?

Matthew posted over 15 years ago

Hello,

I have created a UltraWebTree (2008 V3) that is bound to a datasource. I would like the parent item to be editable, but the leaf not editable.

Right now, I'm capturing the AfterNodeUpdate() client side event to change the leaf back to what I saved on the NodeClick() client side event.

While that prevents the user from changing a group item's name, it would be nice to be able to not have the edit box activate in the first place; while still letting them change the group name.

Is there a way to control which node items are editable on the server, when it's being bound to the datasource?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.

    function BeforeBeginNodeEdit(treeId, nodeId) {
        if (igtree_getNodeById(nodeId).getLevel() > 0)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }
gives me the results I want: to allow the user to change the text of the first level of the tree, but ignore any double-clicking they may do to the other levels.

Not sure if this will totally help you or not, as I needed to turn off edit capability for all nodes, but I did so with the following client side snippet:
        // turn off edit capability of tree
        function igtree_beginedit(tn,nodeId)
        {
            //custom logic here
            return false;
        }

Perhaps you can tweak to only call this on the nodes you need to "turn off".
Good luck,
Dan
