How to select items from a angular js tree view

What are you clicking on?

The first example I linked to, the expanders (the bit you need to click on) was a child object of the node.

The second example was a little more fiddly. You can still find the node using content text, but it's the little arrow on the left you need to click to expand it. This is not seen as a child object like in the first example. But instead, you just click half way up the height of the node and a couple of pixels in from the left and it expands as it's supposed to.

If your one uses clicks on the node directly (rather than an embedded child object), then you need to do something similar to the first reply. ie. get the co-ordinates of the node, work out the centre-point, and just apply a mouse click there. Similar to the second example. If it's the "+" in a box you need to click, get the left edge and centre point of the node , relative to the control container, and then move left a set number of pixels and that should click on the expander.

There will be a way of doing it. Might just need a little more thought than usual. All the elements seem to be there. You just need to work out a way of manipulating it if it's not giving you out-of-the-box methods you can use. Not all controls do. Another possibility may be to use keypresses to move around inside it. Depends if the active node is flagged in a way that you can detect. eg. Move down all nodes in a loop checking which one is active each time. When the one you want becomes active, hit enter, or space, or whatever key acts as a shortcut in your case.

Your second screenshot isn't very helpful without some context. I have no idea where that control sits. Is it a node? Is it a child of a node? Where does the top level container sit? And there are a bunch more properties cut off and we can't see any of the available methods ....
