I'm using DropDownList in grid as EditorTemplate. If no value is selected I get a message that says "The Id field is required". How to change the message or remove it completely?

Hi All,

We have a table for managing a business process that needs to display an item from the inventory tables. Therefore we need the column showing what Item a record will use to be a ForeignKey column. We have had various problems getting this to work, and our best solution so far is still not functional. The DropDownList just closes as soon as you click into it. It is bound with server filtering.

The column definition:

columns.ForeignKey(p => p.ItemMasterId, ds => ds.Read(r => r.Action("ItemMasters", "MasterMix")), "ItemId", "ItemName", true)
                                    .Title("Item Name").Width(500).EditorTemplateName("ItemMasterDropDownEditor");

The editor template:

@model object

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(model => model)
        .DataSource(source =>
        {
            source.Read("ItemMasters", "MasterMix").ServerFiltering();
        })
        .Filter(FilterType.Contains)
        .DataValueField("ItemId")
        .DataTextField("ItemName")
)

The server-side call:

The list is working correctly showing all we need. We just can't get the dropdown to stay open and have the cursor in the filter search text box.

Thanks in advance... Bob Graham

The left column should occupy vertically the same as the right column.

Hi,

Telerik.UI.for.AspNet.Core v2023.2.82 is still referencing multiple deprecated MS packages, all of the dependencies that start with 'Microsoft.AspNetCore' are version 2.1.0 and are showing as Deprecated by Microsoft.

I need to find refresh values of DropDownList programmatically. That's what I tried:

		    let nameDropDownList = $('#Configs').getKendoDropDownList();
			console.log(nameDropDownList);
			console.log(nameDropDownList.datasource);
		    nameDropDownList.datasource.read();	
            nameDropDownList.value(currentConfigName);

When read is called, I get:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'read')

Log shows me, that datasource is undefined.

            @(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
                .Name("Configs")
                .DataTextField("Name")
                .DataValueField("Name")
                .Filter(FilterType.StartsWith)
                .DataSource(s =>
                {
                    s.Read(r => r.Action("Read", "FilteringTable"));
                }))

I would like to store filter's state in url. The url should be formed by pressing apply button. When the page with url containing filter information is opened, the filter should consume this information and display on the page.
