Dynamic indentation in devexpress aspxgridview

Question

Are anyone aware of any method to achieve indentation in the ASPXGridView (we are running the 10.x version currently available)

What we got

What we'd like to achieve

Some information about the code-behind.

The grid is populated by an ObjectDataSource and the indentation is stored in a property alongside with the other data. In example the BMI row will have 0 indentation while the GENDER will have 1, and MAN will have 2. Etc...

The indentation is calculated runtime since relations might change.

public void GetItemsRecursive(int? parentId, int level)
{
    List<qstFeedbackLine> q;

    if (parentId == 0)
        q = _db.qstFeedbackLines.Where(x => x.ParentId == null).ToList();
    else
        q = _db.qstFeedbackLines.Where(x => x.ParentId == parentId).ToList();

    foreach (var item in q)
    {
        // Store the indent
        item.Indent = level;

        // Add item to List
        _items.Add(item);

        level++;
        // ...and get the children of the current id
        GetItemsRecursive(item.FeedBackLineId, level);
    }
}

Any advice out there?

Thanks!

Ended up using the ASPxTreeList component instead!
