Greater control for item templates.

It would be nice to have more control over the item templates. ie, be allowed to more easily do stuff like:

  • Make the item non-selectable, or only selectable by a child element.
  • Make the item drag-and-droppable only via a grip element.
  • Make the item template display as a block, not inline.

Hello Levi,

The solution you found is correct. If you need additional width to the items it needs to be set up with CSS.

Ianko,

I figured out a workaround to the inline/block issue. The crux is that the template is surrounded by <span class="k-in"></span> which has no width. Adding a width in the css solves this.

Hi Levi,

The select and draganddrop can be disabled by using the corresponding events, which is the better option to accomplish that as you can dynamically interfere with the node:

https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/treeview/events/dragstart

 

As for the block vs inline rendering, can you provide some more details on the demand and the use case? Currently, the templates are rendered in a block element and I am not sure what would be the benefit to control whether the template element is inline or block.
