I am using the UltraWinTree to allow the user to build a hierarchical task list. They can enter details about the tasks such as Start and End dates, budget dollars, comments. As I add columns the user needs to scroll to the right and I want the Task Name column to remain in view as the user scrolls right. I can do this with the UltraGrid, can I do this with the UltraWinTree Columnset?
No, the UltraWinTree does not currently support fixed columns. You should Submit a feature request to Infragistics
I have been very successful in the past using Infragistics controls to accomplish everything I needed. Would it be possible to use the WinGrid and get the same Outlook Express look I am getting from UltraTree?
Yes, that is very fine! Please, tell me where I can find the API for that!
How to fix a column in the UltraTree?
Thanks a lot!

I have to admit that I am incorrect in my statement and did not read the subject matter correctly. I am using the XAML controls now and thought you were refering to the xamDataGrid. When I started using the grid it did not have fixed columns and put in a request for fixed columns. I have not used the Win controls since CLR 3.0. This may have been an old request from me years ago and not sure if it is implemented in the WinTree.
I do not use the Tree View in the XAML controls, at least not yet, but have used the xamDataDrid to build a hierarchical view and make use of fixed and dynamic columns to allow N level of hierarchy and N number of columns.
Sorry for giving you the wrong information.
Does not matter! :) But back to my question: Is there any chance to get fixed columns in UltraWinTree??? Please help me, we absolutely need this!
Thanks!
If you have not already done so, I recommend that you Submit a feature request to Infragistics.
Beyond that, all I can tell you is that there have been no publicly-announced plans to implement this in the next volume release. I can't say what might be implemented in the release(s) after that.
I need this feature urgently. Is there a way by which I can simulate this behaviour? Anything I can do through code to prevent the first two columns from scrolling?
Assuming its not available as of now, Is there any alternative way of freezing the columns ? Changing to grid is ruled out completely.
Is this feature available in any new releases..?
We are also looking for a solution to fix the first three columns of an UltraWinTree with ColumnSet.
The reasons we use a Tree and not a Grid are the same, that other customers mentioned:
- the hierarchy and structure of the tree suits our purposes and
- we already built a lot of code around the tree hierarchy, that cannot easily (if at all) be transfered to a Grid.
It's been more than a year since the last post on this matter. Are there any news on behalf of this subject?
Hello ,
Our product ideas are implemented based on count of the requests of this particular feature. When there is enough Infragistics customers which want this features to be implemented, our Product Management team evaluate how much time and effort the implementation of this feature will takes and if there is enough resources for the planning period, the features is assign as task to the developers for implementation.
Could you please let me know why you don’t consider to use UltraGrid instead of UltraTree, since UltraTree is in GridForm, what exactly in your scenario stops you to use UltraGrid. UltraGrid supports fixed columns, it is hierarchical just as UltraTree and paling within underlain data source you will achieve heterogenic structure. I’ve seen your post from 1 of April 2011 and if this is the only reason which stops you to use UltraGrid, the other option which I could offer you is to consider to use our “Consulting Service” for your particular scenario. On the following link you will find more information about this service:

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Hi Infragistics-Team!
So your answer is a certain rejection to the feature request from all the users!?
Cannot find the feature, so you did not implemented it. Are there any plans to implement it? What can I say to my CEO and customers?
Please be so kind and give us a comprehensible answer!
Thanks in advance!
