About cellIndex property on the grid with locked columns

[Wanchang]

Hi,

I use cellIndex property on the grid. But it returns strange value when the grid has locked columns.

I tried the propety on the Frozen columns demo page using Google Chrome Developer Tools.

1. When I click "Order ID" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 2.
2. When I click "Ship Name" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 3.
3. When I click "Ship Country" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 2.
4. When I click "Ship City" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 3.
5. When I click "ShipAddress" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 4.

I expect in above case 1 cellIndex returns 0, and in case 2 cellIndex returns 1.

Is this the correct behavior of cellIndex property?

When I click "Ship Name" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 3.

When I click "Ship Name" cell at the first row and input $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").cellIndex($0) to the console, it returns 3.

I also tried to change groupable property to false at Dojo.

But the result didn't change.

Hi Kiriya,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Your observations are correct. The issue is caused by the fact that when there are locked columns, the argument, passed to the cellIndex() method, should be wrapped in a jQuery object, e.g. ...cellIndex($($0)).

The documentation for the cellIndex() method will be upgraded accordingly.

Thanks for your reply. I implemented the workaround and solved this issue.

But when I clicked the "Mark as answered" hyperlink, http 500 error occurred.

So I can't mark my question as answered.
