Thoughts about TreeViewGrid or Collapsable DataGrid

Requirement: collapse and expand rows, master and detail rows

• • http://sourcegrid.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=66251 is not implemented for Sourcegrid
    • also see help file: Q: How can I create a tree view with SourceGrid? (hierarchical view) A: For now SourceGrid doesn't support this kind of view. I hope to work on this for a future release.
  • http://www.codeproject.com/KB/grid/practicalguidedatagrids4.aspx the old .net 1.1 Winforms grid has expand and collapse methods, but this is not the new DataGridView
  • old DataGrid: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagrid.collapse.aspx
  • extend datagrid, cells with combobox or colors: http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/20060202.asp

    • ChristianK used the 'TreeListView' control, which is part of this very good control, in a project that is unrelated to OpenPetra and found it very powerful and rather easy to use. It is under GPL License. Unfortunately it does not support mono (as of June 2010, though it seems that earlier versions did).

• Alternative:
  • manually create a DataTable, mix Master and Detail rows. problem with sorting?!!
  • GL: connect transactions with a_detail_number_i. add a new GL Batch screen without journals? or depending on settings, and whether there are more than one journal per batch?
  • Gift: insert the detail rows. similar to 2.3
