Kendo-angular: Grid API for expand/collapse of detail rows

[gyoshev]

There have been requests for more control over the expanding and collapsing of the detail rows. The grid should provide methods that allow that.

[rusev]

Adding public API for expand/collapse is in our to-do list. We'll update the documentation when it is available.

[gyoshev]

It would be easier for customers to track this item, so let's close it when the functionality has been implemented.

Is there currently a preferred way to handle the expand/collapse event? Perhaps off of the dataStateChange event?

[rusev]

@burkeholland there isn't event for expand/collapse yet. dataStateChange is related to data state - like page index/size, sorting etc.

[burkeholland]

Understood. It would be nice to have the event to decide whether or not to destroy/recreate the detail grid on expand/collapse.

Hey guys, is there away to show the grid fully expanded all rows?

e.g. the old way:

dataBound: function() { this.expandRow(this.tbody.find("tr.k-master-row")); }

[rusev]

@lelong37 There isn't dataBound event analogue as the Grid is repainted right after data property is provided.

Here is a possible implementation of the scenario - http://plnkr.co/edit/Rqc2lBCljEF4x5WOJj0C?p=preview

Perhaps we can add this snippet to the docs as well?
