"#=count#" not working in Footer Template

[Lisa]

Hi - I want to add counts on a grid, and am copying code I've used on another grid with no problems.

Here is my column definition for the field in question, it gives me an error that "count" is not defined.

{ field: "SchoolYear", title: "Assessment Year", aggregates: ["count"], footerTemplate: "Count: #=count#", groupFooterTemplate: "Count: #=count#", groupHeaderTemplate: " #=value# - Count: #=count#"},

If I remove the "#=count#", and have this it renders fine, just no count of course

{ field: "SchoolYear", title: "Assessment Year", aggregates: ["count"], footerTemplate: "Count: ", groupFooterTemplate: "Count: #=count#", groupHeaderTemplate: " #=value# - Count: #=count#"},

What I don't understand is why I can use "#=count#" in the groupFooter and groupHeader templates and it's fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Lisa

Hello Lisa,

 

Could you please try to replicate the described problem with http://dojo.telerik.com/AmUxi example? Maybe I am missing something, but the count aggregate is shown in the footer template.

You example does work, and I can get the code to work on a couple of my grids just fine.  I don't understand why it's not working in some cases, and why using the count in the group templates is fine.  Could it be something like a timing issue on getting the data somehow?

Hello Lisa,

 

The easiest way is to provide a sample dojo example that replicates the problem.  The same approach works absolutely fine when grid is populated with remote data. Please review our Grid / Aggregates demo.
