How to search and retrieve the tree node based on its text in winforms treeviewadv?

Search and retrieve the TreeNodeAdv text

TreeViewAdv has built-in support to search the TreeNodeAdv based on its text, by using the class named TreeViewAdvFindReplaceDialog. It can be done using the following categories:

TreeViewSearchOption
TreeViewSearchRange
TreeViewSearchNavigation

TreeViewSearchOption

This property specifies the Searching option in TreeViewAdv.

MatchWholeText
MatchCase

MatchWholeText

This option helps match the whole searched text with the TreeNodeAdv text, while performing a search in TreeViewAdv.

The screenshot below illustrates the TreeViewAdv performing search option with MatchWholeText

MatchCase

This option specifies whether casing needs to be considered during the search process.

The screenshot below illustrates the TreeViewAdv performing search option with MatchCase

TreeViewSearchRange

This property helps to specify the search range in TreeViewAdv during the search process. These options are categorized as follows.

TreeView
RootNode
ChildNode

TreeView

This option helps specify whether the search needs to be performed with all levels of TreeNodeCollection in TreeViewAdv.

The screenshot below illustrates the TreeViewAdv performing search range with TreeView

RootNode

This option helps to specify whether the search needs to be performed only with the parent level of the TreeNodeAdv.

The screenshot below illustrates the TreeViewAdv performing search range with RootNode

ChildNode

This option helps to specify, whether the search needs to be performed only with the child level of TreeNodeAdv.

The screenshot below illustrates the TreeViewAdv performing search range with ChildNode

TreeViewSearchNavigation

This property helps to specify the navigation option for TreeViewAdv, upon using find and replace in the TreeNodeAdv process in TreeViewAdv. These options are categorized as follows:

SearchUp
SearchDown
SearchAll

SearchUp

This option helps to specify whether the search needs to be performed from the bottom to the top of TreeViewAdv.

SearchDown

This option helps to specify whether the search needs to be performed from the top to the bottom of TreeViewAdv.

SearchAll

This option helps to specify whether the search can be performed in the above cases repeatedly. The following code example demonstrates the same.
