Recently a BE.NET user was requesting a link list widget that supported multiple group which is not available in the current 'Link List' widget. Therefore, I have spent some time to create a new widget by using the ASP.NET treeview control to have a better UI grouping presentation.

Throughout the development cycle, I thought of it will be added value if I exposed some of the basic settings to the user like list below,

• Main node title.


• Group node image.


• Link node image.


• Show/Hide the main node.


• Show/hide the dotted line.


• Expand/collapse node capability.


• Cutomize the group and link node style.


• The easy way to rearrange the group and link order.


• Show/hide individual group/link.


• Support multiple sub group.
