Nested Groups Over a single property in ListCollectionView

Question

I have an object which have a string property containing \ character inside like a file path. And a want using a ListCollectionView to generate nested groups for all strings inside my property.

e.g.

      Department\Human Resources\Ioan Toader the Department Group will contain Human Resources which contain the item Ioan Toader

Is possible to archive something like that with ListCollectionView grouping.

My property contains a variable numbers of items separated with \

Thanks for your help

Answer 2

My problem is I have one property which has to be split by / character and the depth of hierarchy is not the same in all groups.

Answer 3

Hi Ioan Toader,

I think there is no direct method to split your string property by ListCollectionView, you could try to split it by code, and then group then, there is a sample code block about how to split string, refer to below link:
