To reproduce: use the following code snippet and follow the steps in the attached gif file. private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.order_DetailsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Order_Details); this.ordersTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Orders); radGridView1.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true; radGridView1.DataSource = this.nwindDataSet; radGridView1.DataMember = "Orders"; radGridView1.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill; radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Templates.First().AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill; radGridView1.EnablePaging = true; radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Templates.First().EnableFiltering = true; FilterDescriptor fd = new FilterDescriptor(); fd.PropertyName = "UnitPrice"; fd.Operator = FilterOperator.IsGreaterThan; fd.Value = 40; radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Templates.First().FilterDescriptors.Add(fd); radGridView1.MouseDown += radGridView1_MouseDown; } private void radGridView1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { GridDetailViewCellElement detailCell = radGridView1.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location) as GridDetailViewCellElement; if (detailCell != null) { radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Templates.First().FilterDescriptors.Clear(); } } Workaround: private void radGridView1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { GridDetailViewCellElement detailCell = radGridView1.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location) as GridDetailViewCellElement; if (detailCell != null) { radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Templates.First().FilterDescriptors.Clear(); GridViewHierarchyRowInfo hierarchyRow = (GridViewHierarchyRowInfo)((GridViewDetailsRowInfo)detailCell.RowInfo).Owner; hierarchyRow.IsExpanded = ! hierarchyRow.IsExpanded; hierarchyRow.IsExpanded = ! hierarchyRow.IsExpanded; hierarchyRow.ChildRows.Last().EnsureVisible(); } }
