Hello,

I would like to request that you guys add an event after a Grid Save ajax call completes successfully. I need to be able to synchronize the contents of two grids (when one updates, the other fetches new data) and right now there is no event I can call that isn't super chatty (meaning it also fires at times other than when the data source changes).

Preferably like a SaveCompleted event or something like that.

Thanks!

Hi Robert,

Thank you for the suggestion. At this stage the implementation of such event is still not scheduled, but this idea sounds really good and I will suggest to send it as a feature request at our UserVoice forum. This way the community would be able to vote and comment it - its implementation depends on the users feedback and the number of votes. 

Meanwhile, for your scenario you could use the change event of the dataSource which fires when the data is changed.

As I mentioned, the change event is too chatty. It doesn't send back what type of change event happened, so you can't filter for specific types of changes. If I called $("#otherGrid).dataSource.read() every time the Change event fired, I'd be reading in the same information over and over again about 8x more then actually necessary.
