How can I access (click) to the cell of a table derived from XtraTreeList of DevExpress.

Hi,



I can't find a way to click on a check-box inside a table which is also and XtraTreeList without using screen coordinate. (see attached picture)

I look into the availables method which provide by the object (XtraTreeList), there is not methode ClickCell or any method to simulate the click on the cell.



For example, I want to click on the check-box in the 1st column, at the node TT (see picture below). How can i do it. Please help!



I'm able to get the node, the column without problem. I'm also able to set the value of the cell to true, so the check-box will be check. But since, it is not a Click, the even behind the check-box does not fire.



All helps are very appreciated

    Hi,


     


    You can try using the following approach (refer to the control's documentation to learn more about the Bounds property):


    var wTreeList = // obtain your tree from the Object Browser


    var cell = // obtain the cell to click it


    var bounds = cell.Bounds;


    wTreeList.Click(bounds.Left +  bounds.Width / 2,


                             bounds.Top + bounds.Height / 2);




     


    If this doesn't help, can you create a sample app and post it here so we can try to test it?

    Hi,



    Here a sample of the tree list. I'm unable to get the cell. I look in the object inspector of TestComplete 9.10, there is no method offer to get the cell.



    Please help.

    Hi,


     


    Thanks for the sample. I've used the script from this How To article to enable a check box next to the specified tree item. I only modified the Main_Sample function in this way:


    function Main_Sample()


    {   


      var p = Sys.Process("TreeListCheckbox");


      var wMain = p.WinFormsObject("Form1");


      wMain.Activate();


      var wTreeList = wMain.WinFormsObject("treeList1");


      var nodes = wTreeList.Nodes;


      var nodeStr = "root|b";


      var colStr = "Visible";


      


      if (clickNode(wTreeList, nodes, nodeStr, colStr, 0))


      {


        Log.Message("The '" + nodeStr + "' node was successfully clicked.");


      }


    }

    Hi Tanya,



    Big thank for the help. It works fine. I did not know that I have to get into the ViewInfo to be able to get access to the cell. Thank you again.



    I do have another question related to this. I don't understand why when I create a form which use the private DevExpress.XtraTreeList.TreeList directly. Example

    private DevExpress.XtraTreeList.TreeList aTree;



    I saw a method ClickCell in Object Inpsector. But when I create a class which inherite from a class using XTraTreeList. Then, i don't see the method ClickCell.



    Here an example that the method ClickCell is not available:



    class MyTreeList : DevExpress.XtraTreeList.TreeList

    {

         public MyTreeList()

         {

         }

    }



    partial class Form

    {

        private void InitializeComponent()

        {

             this.treeList = new MyTreeList();

             .

             .

             .

        }

    }

    Hi,


     


    You need to add the TreeListCheckbox.MyTreeList class to Object Mapping's Developer Express Controls  WinForms | XtraTreeList to show TestComplete that your class is inherited from the known one.


    Actually, after that, you can use the ClickCellXY method to enable/disable the check box.
