I'm trying to bold or highlight single words in a node or cell but have not found any functionality other than changing properties on a node or cell level, which bolds the entire node/cell which is not what I want.
Also I have tried several different ways of word wrapping but nothing seems to work other than in the default view. I am trying to get my text to wrap in the Outlook express view style on a per cell basis but the text seems to just flow off the screen. I have tried setting the CellWrapText property, the AutoSizeMode property, the Multiline property, and have tried increasing the size of the lables/cells to account for the text wrapping but it remains on one line.
Here is the code:
public void BuildTreeTest() { var item1 = new NmfcItemVM(); //var item2 = new NmfcItemVM(); item1.Description = "Explosives, consisting of ammunition, explosive or incendiary, or gas or smoke or tear producing; Explosives, NOI; Propellants, explosive; Blasting Explosives, consisting of ammunition, explosive or incendiary, or gas or smoke or tear producing; Explosives, NOI; Propellants, explosive; Blasting" + "Explosives, consisting of ammunition, explosive or incendiary, or gas or smoke or tear producing; Explosives, NOI; Propellants, explosive; Blasting (ITEM LEVEL DESCRIPTION)"; item1.Id = "YVV00H9W"; item1.Item = "104000"; item1.ItemSub = "00"; var note1 = new NoteVM(); note1.Description = "Note: explosive ITEM LEVEL NOTE"; note1.Id = "103000"; item1.Notes.Add(note1); var pointer1 = new PointerVM(); pointer1.Description = "Pointer parent 2"; pointer1.Item = "105000"; pointer1.ItemSub = "00"; var pointer2 = new PointerVM(); pointer2.Description = "Pointer parent 1"; pointer2.Item = "106000"; pointer2.ItemSub = "02"; item1.Pointers.Add(pointer1); item1.Pointers.Add(pointer2); var sub = new NmfcSubItemVM(); sub.Description = "Nmfc sub item, Chain, iron or steel Nmfc sub item, Chain, iron or steel Nmfc sub item, Chain, iron or steel Nmfc sub item, Chain, iron or steel (SUB LEVEL DESCRIPTION)"; sub.Class = "50"; sub.SubItemNumber = "00"; sub.Item = "107500"; var subNote = new NoteVM(); subNote.Description = "Iron SUB LEVEL NOTE"; subNote.Id = "103455"; sub.Notes.Add(subNote); item1.SubItems.Add(sub);

Hi Quinn,
You should be able to accomplish this by using an UltraFormattedTextEditor as the editor for the Description column. You can read about using embeddable editors with UltraTree in our documentation.
I believe that UltraFormattedTextEditor will provide all the options you need. Please try it out and let me know whether it works for you.
I figured out how to dynamically change the text using the UltraFormattedTextEditor like you said by doing something like this:
var ufte = new UltraFormattedTextEditor();var testPig = itemVM.Description;var som = testPig.Replace("explosive", "<span style=\"color: Red;\">explosive</span>");ufte.Value = som;ufte.WrapText = true;itemNode.Cells["Item"].Value = itemVM.Item;itemNode.Cells["Description"].EditorComponent = ufte;itemNode.Cells["Description"].Value = ufte.Value; //itemVM.Description;itemNode.Cells["Description"].Column.CellWrapText = DefaultableBoolean.True;
However I can't figure out what value to change to set the cell's height to account for the text wrapping, currently it appears on one line with arrows. I have tried overriding the ItemHeight and MaxLabelHeight on the node but that doesn't seem to work: the size increases but the text still stays on one line with arrows. Any suggestions? thanks.
Picture:
This should work if you set UltraGrid.DisplayLayout.Override.RowSizing to 'AutoFree', and set the CellMultiLine property of the description column to true.
Please try this out and let me know whether it works for you.
Hi mike,
I'm using an ultratree not an ultragrid.
I ended up switching to the default view and formatting text to the best of my ability using the editorComponent. It seems its not possible to resize on a per cell basis in the other views because it changes the size of cells for the entire column. So I suppose my problem is now resolved.
I used the grid properties in error. UltraTree has similar properties, but they are located in a different place.
You can set Mutliline on the override for a particular node:
ultraTree1.Nodes[0].Override.Multiline = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True;
You can also set Multiline for an entire node collection:
ultraTree1.Nodes.Override.Multiline = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True; ;
Finally, you can set CellWrapText on a column:
ultraTree1.ColumnSettings.ColumnSets[0].Columns[0].CellWrapText = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True;
The combination of either (or both) of the above Multiline properties and the CellWrapText property should give you the result you need. Please try this out and let me know whether it works.
