columns.encoded Boolean (default: true)

If set to true, the column value will be HTML-encoded before it is displayed. If set to false, the column value will be displayed as is. By default, the column value is HTML-encoded.

Example - preventing HTML encoding

<div id="treelist"></div>
<script>
  $("#treelist").kendoTreeList({
    columns: [
      { field: "lastName"},
      { field: "position", encoded: false},
      { command: [ "edit" ] }
    ],
    editable: "popup",
    dataSource: [
      { id: 1, parentId: null, lastName: "Jackson", position: "<strong>CEO</strong>" },
      { id: 2, parentId: 1, lastName: "Weber", position: "VP, Engineering" }
    ]
  });
</script>
