How to rename directly in the TreeView node?

[sinosoidal]

Hi, Do you people know when you click once in a treeview node in explorer for example? We can then rename directly that item. What do i need to do in order to implement that? Thx, Nuno

You may create a custom control that on the rename shortcut converts the node head to a textbox and take the text and set it . OR Handle the F2 shortcut for example, and pop a custom messagebox up, take the new name, and set the text to it.

Here is some code, you can refer, string

selectedNodeText;
private void RenametoolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TreeNode node = this.treeView.SelectedNode as TreeNode;
selectedNodeText = node.Text;
this.treeViewTestplan.LabelEdit = true;
node.BeginEdit();
}

    void treeView\_AfterLabelEdit(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.NodeLabelEditEventArgs e)
    {
        TreeNode node = this.treeView.SelectedNode as TreeNode;
        this.treeViewTestplan.LabelEdit = false;

        if (e.Label.IndexOfAny(new char\[\] { '\\\\', '/', ':', '\*', '?', '"', '<', '>', '|' }) != -1)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Invalid StepName.\\n" +
              "The step Name must not contain " +
                  "following characters:\\n \\\\ / : \* ? \\" < > |",
              "step name Edit Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK,
              MessageBoxIcon.Error);
            return;
        }
        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(e.Label))
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Step name is Invalid");
            e.CancelEdit = true;
            return;
        }

string label = (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(e.Label) ? e.Label :selectedNodeText);
if (null != e.Label)
{
(node.ExecutionObject as Step).Name = label;

        }
        
    }

    void treeView\_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
    {           
        if (e.KeyCode == Keys.F2)
        {
            this.RenametoolStripMenuItem\_Click(this, null);
        }
    }
