Items Binding
The DropDownTree allows you to declare its items within the helper declaration. This approach is suitable for a limited number of options, because each item is defined manually in the Items configuration.
The following example demonstrates how to configure a DropDownTree with three levels of hierarchy.
@(Html.Kendo().DropDownTree()
.Name("dropdowntree")
.Items(dropdowntree =>
{
dropdowntree.Add().Text("My Documents")
.Expanded(true)
.Items(root =>
{
root.Add().Text("Kendo UI Project")
.Expanded(true)
.Items(project =>
{
project.Add().Text("about.html");
project.Add().Text("index.html");
project.Add().Text("logo.png");
});
root.Add().Text("New Web Site");
root.Add().Text("Reports");
});
})
)
