Prevent Kendo grid data bind events when updating multiple model properties

[Tom]

Hi, 
I'm updating multiple properties on a Kendo datasource row model (using model.set javascript), and I want the grid to update only after the last change is made. Another issue is that i don't know (without many if statements) whether any of the properties actually changed.
Regards,

Hi Tom,

You can prevent the data bind action at the dataBinding event. For example:

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");

grid.bind("dataBinding", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); });
//begin modifying the data
//.....
//finish modifying the data
grid.unbind("dataBinding");
grid.refresh();

I hope this solution will fit in your scenario.
