Hi,

Is there a sample code for adding a MVC kendo UI grid in a partial view, and setting its datasource and columns in a view

Thanks,

Hi Annie,


Generally the Grid columns should be specified in it's initialization code. Could you please elaborate what are you trying to achieve so I could assist further?

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Dimiter,

I would like to initialize the grid in a partial view, just setting sorting, reordering, paging, then in the view
that calls the partial view set the datasource of the grid and also set the columns. This is so that we can re-use the same grid in multiple views

Thanks,
Annie

Hi Annie,


The current scenario is not directly supported in the MVC Grid. A similar alternatives that I could suggest, although they do no match the current requirements directly are:

Binding to a collection of dynamic objects
Binding to a DataTable
