jqxTree Knockout Selectable ???

[AKaplanBlocked]

In a knockout environment, how can I add the function of the select event to the control such as,

<div data-bind="jqxTree:{source: [], select: $data.selectedItem }"></div>

All the demos are in a jquery selector format, and that doesn’t work well w context control.
I’ve tried overriding and expanding on the control, but that’s not working because I might be doing something wrong.

var originalJqxTreeInit = ko.bindingHandlers.jqxTree.init,
originalJqxTreeUpdate = ko.bindingHandlers.jqxTree.update;
ko.bindingHandlers.jqxTree = {
        init: function (element, value, allBindings, viewModel) {
        var wrappedValue = function () {
            return function (data, event) {
                ko.bindingHandlers.jqxTree.select.call(viewModel, data, event);
                value().call(viewModel, data, event);
            };
        };
        originalJqxTreeInit(element, wrappedValue, allBindings, viewModel);
    },
    update: originalJqxTreeUpdate,
    select: function (event) {
        var args = event.args,
            item = $(args.element).jqxTree('getItem', args.element),
            dropDownContent = '<div style="position: relative; margin-left: 3px; margin-top: 5px;">' + item.label + '</div>';
        $(args.element).jqxDropDownButton('setContent', dropDownContent);
    }
}

can someone point me in the right direction?

this is so stupid… how can a company produce a control without a select method?! How is anyone going to be able to interact w it?! Can someone please help?

Hello AKaplan,

jqxTree has a method for selection, called selectItem. Unfortunately, this method has still not been implemented in the jqxKnockout plug-in. The only available settings as of now are source and disabled, as you can see from the plug-in’s API Documentation.

What’s the point of that? In what application scenario do I only need to view the control and not interact w it?
