Description

The Kendo UI for jQuery DropDownTree supports loading child nodes on demand by setting the loadOnDemand property to true.

This demo demonstrates how the DropDownTree can efficiently handle large hierarchical datasets by fetching child data lazily when parent groups get expanded. With pre-selected values, you need to implement a valueMapper function to resolve the selected values to their corresponding data items.

When load on demand is enabled, the component will automatically request child data from the server when a parent node is expanded for the first time. This is particularly useful for scenarios with deep hierarchical structures or when dealing with large amounts of data.

This DropDownTree example is part of a unique collection of hundreds of jQuery demos, with which you can see all Kendo UI for jQuery components and their features in action. View the source code of the demos from the library or directly adapt, and edit them and their theme appearance in Kendo UI for jQuery Dojo or ThemeBuilder.
