Nested grid inside a Tree grid

[VaniParticipant]

Hi,
Can we get a nested grid inside a tree grid? If yes please explain how to get it
Thank you.

Hi Vani,

No, this is not possible and should not be. The TreeGrid by itself is Hierarchical Grid which displays hierarchies of data which makes the using of nested grids pointless. If you need Nested Grids, you can check DataTable or Grid widgets.

How about the following scenario: we have a hierarchical structure of companies. Company A owns child-companies 1, 2, 3, and child-companies 1, 2, 3 each own grand-child companies 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b, 2c, 3a, 3b, 3c.
Each of the companies, no matter what level, has employees. I would like to show in a treegrid something like the following:

>A
Ronald
Nancy
>1
Neil
John
Anna
>1a
Albert
Fred
>1b
Nicole
Adrian
Brian
>1c
Eric
>2
>2a
>2b
>2c
>3
>3a
>3b
>3c
As you indicate, this is not possible in a treegrid. But I don’t see how this can be done in a Data table or a Grid either, as they don’t support hierarchical data. This is not a theoretical situation, I really do need to implement this. Could you please give me any advice how to approach this?

Hi AneVisser,

Nested Grids inside TreeGrid are not supported. The TreeGrid supports the features demonstrated on its Demo page. Your Data can be easily represented with hierarchical JSON – http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxtreegrid/javascript-tree-grid-binding-to-nested-json.htm?arctic. The DataTable supports Nested Grids and so do the Grid.
