Rename a TreeNode

[ohad weiss]

Hi all

I have a question abount renaming a selected treenode.
My user can place the cursor on a treeview, click on the right button of the
mouse, and a contextmenue is beeing populated, in which he can Add, rename
or delete a node from the treeview.

When he select the new option, the code I use is:

treeview1.Nodes.Add("New")

When he select the delete option, the code I use is:
treeview1.Nodes.Remove(treeview1.SelectedNode)

When he select the rename option, I need a code no let him change the
selected node's name.

How can I do it?

thanks

If you want to change the text (rename) of the selected node use:

TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text = "Your new text"

Hi Lloyd ,

Thanks for your reply, but it seems that you didn't understand me.
I need to let my user rename it from the treeview itself, means, He stand on
the relevant node, click on it and it allow him to change it's name (like as
you rename a folder in the windows explorer)

I've used something like this:

Private Sub treeview1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles treeview1.KeyUp
'
' Catch special key F2
'
If e.KeyCode = Keys.F2 Then
treeview1.LabelEdit = True
treeview1.SelectedNode.BeginEdit()
End If

End Sub

Private Sub treeview1_AfterLabelEdit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.NodeLabelEditEventArgs) Handles treeview1.AfterLabelEdit
'
' Handle edited label and disable label edit
'
treeview1.LabelEdit = False
If e.Label Is Nothing OrElse e.Label.Trim.Length = 0 Then
' Can not be empty text
e.CancelEdit = True
End If

End Sub

Does not exactly answer, how to do it from the context menu, but I hope you'll get the idea.

Hi ohad,

You call BeginEdit on the node. Also make sure that the treeview has
LabelEdit set to True
