Hi Team,
I am using the kendo grid of the UI for ASP.NET MVC, and the height of the grid gets shorter on initial render of the grid. Once I click on anyone of the columns of the grid, it gets to its actual height assigned in the grid.
Please find the attached screenshot and let me know if I am doing anything wrong.
As you can see, in the first screen shot, the grid is shorter, and in the second screenshot, the grid has its actual height.
Please get back to me team as soon as you can. I really appreciate your help.

How to define the paperSize in the onPDFExport function? Currently getting the error unknown paperSize. Variable width is the total width of all of the columns in the grid, and it is not undefined.
Current code:
function onPDFExport(e) {
var grid = $("#CustomerOrderYearlyAllGrid").data("kendoGrid");
var width = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < this.columns.length; i++) {
this.autoFitColumn(i);
width = width + this.columns[i].width;
}
debugger;
var CustomerID = $("#CustomerID").data('kendoDropDownList');
var selectedCustomerName = CustomerID.text();
grid.options.pdf.fileName = selectedCustomerName + " Summary (Yearly).pdf";
grid.options.pdf.paperSize = (width + "px","500px");
}

I'm using .paperSize("auto") for my Export to PDF, and I want using the .TemplateId("templateName") so that I could include a header when I export to PDF. Using paperSize("auto") will not apply the template. How do I use paperSize("auto") and also include a header? Any help with be appreciated
<script type="x/kendo-template" id="page-template">
<div class="page-template">
<div class="header">
#=getDllValueForPrint()#
</div>
<div class="footer">
@*<div style="float: right">Page #: pageNum # of #: totalPages #</div>*@
</div>
</div>
</script> .Pdf(pdf => pdf
.FileName("Customer Orders Summary (Yearly).pdf")
.AllPages()
.PaperSize("auto")
.Margin("2cm", "1cm", "1cm", "1cm")
.Landscape()
.TemplateId("page-template") function getDllValueForPrint() {
var CustomerID = $("#CustomerID").data('kendoDropDownList');
var selectedCustomerName = CustomerID.text();
return selectedCustomerName;
}
This is a follow up question of this question:
https://www.telerik.com/forums/cannot-read-property-'removeclass'-error-after-calling-setoptions
I made that work, and I'm calling the setOptions method and it is setting the Height, PageSize and PageSizes properties.
But now, I'm having a different issue. I'm working on a grid that has a button on the toolbar. This is the code for the toolbar.
.ToolBar(t =>
{
t.Template(@<text>
<div class="grid-toolbar-primary">
@(Html.Kendo().Button()
.Name("appSettingItemAddButton")
.Content(HtmlLocaleHelper.GetLabelText(CoreConstants.Localization.Labels.Grid.CreateNew).ToString())
.HtmlAttributes(new { @type = "button" })
.Events(e => e.Click("onAppSettingGridOnAdd")))
</div>
</text>);
})This code is working fine, and the toolbar and the button are being displayed. But with my new code, that call the setOptions method, the toolbar and the button are not being displayed anymore.
I found this post on the forum Save/Load - Custom Toolbar Disappears in UI for ASP.NET MVC | Telerik Forums, and it looks like it is a known issue. According to what I found, the workaround is to get the options and save them somehow, and then use that value to set the options again.
In my case, I will need to also change the Height, PageSize and PageSizes, so I started by trying to just get the toolbar and set it, but is not working:
//Get the settings to set the toolbar
var options = kendo.stringify(grid.getOptions());
console.log("options = " + options);
if (options) {
var parsedOptions = JSON.parse(options);
console.log("parsedOptions: ");
console.log(parsedOptions);
console.log("#grid-toolbar-primary: ");
console.log($("#grid-toolbar-primary").html());
parsedOptions.toolbar = [
{ template: $("#grid-toolbar-primary").html() }
];
var optToolbar = parsedOptions.toolbar;
console.log("optToolbar: ");
console.log(optToolbar);
}
grid.setOptions({
groupable: true
, pageable: {
pageSizes: selPageSizes,
pageSize: selDefaultPageSize
}
, dataSource: { pageSize: selDefaultPageSize }
, height: selGridHeight
, toolbar: optToolbar
});Just to test it, I also tried to just get the options and then set them again (no changes at all), but I still can't see the toolbar after setting the options:
//Get the settings to set the toolbar
var options = kendo.stringify(grid.getOptions());
console.log("options = " + options);
if (options) {
var parsedOptions = JSON.parse(options);
console.log("parsedOptions: ");
console.log(parsedOptions);
console.log("#grid-toolbar-primary: ");
console.log($("#grid-toolbar-primary").html());
parsedOptions.toolbar = [
{ template: $("#grid-toolbar-primary").html() }
];
var optToolbar = parsedOptions.toolbar;
console.log("optToolbar: ");
console.log(optToolbar);
grid.setOptions(parsedOptions);
}If I look at the console, the parsedOptions object has a toolbar object, but it looks empty:
In summary, what I need to do is to modify a grid for the three properties (Height, PageSize, PageSizes) and make sure that the grid will still work as it was designed originally.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.
ClientGroupHeaderColumnTemplate prefers "data.FIELDNAME.sum" to "aggregates.FIELDNAME.sum" when using more than 7 aggregates. < 7 aggregates, either one works. Adding an 8th aggregate = "no bueno".
I kept getting an error on grouping if I added an 8th aggregate. With 7 or less aggregates, there didn't seem to be a problem.
I changed my ClientGroupHeaderColumnTemplate to use "data.FIELD.sum" instead of "aggregates.FIELD.sum" and the problem went away, but the problem seems to only exist after the 7th aggregate.
I'm not using all of the aggregates in the same ClientGroupHeaderColumnTemplate. Just adding a new line in the datasource to enable an aggregate on another column (> 7) triggered the fail.
If someone can advise what I might be doing wrong (other than using excessive aggregates), please advise.

Hi guys,
My project is aimed to record employee registration. I want to add a grid into my project.
Link: ASP.NET MVC Grid Batch editing Demo | Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC
But I check my reference which is missing Kendo.Mvc.Examples.
In the demo project (location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Progress\Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC R1 2021\wrappers\aspnetmvc\Examples\MVC5\Kendo.Mvc.Examples), Kendo.Mvc.Examples is in the reference (under Kendo.Mvc).
Could you tell me how to add this reference into my project? Or is there any other document can help me develop the Grid.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi All,
When I want to add Scrollable menu, I meet this issue, Please Help me!
The item need to add: ASP.NET MVC Menu Scrollable Demo | Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC
I just create an new project (Kendo UI MVC5 Application) and I want to a scrollable navigation menu.
After I copy and paste the code from menu demo, the menu is show up but it isn't scrollable.
I screenshot the issue(when mouse move to "Men", nothing show up)
I put these code in index.cshtml which is under Home folder
<div class="k-content">
<h4>Horizontal</h4>
@(Html.Kendo().Menu()
.Name("horizontalMenu")
.Scrollable(true)
.Items(items =>
{
items.Add()
.Text("Mens")
.Items(children =>
{
children.Add().Text("Jackets and Coats");
children.Add().Text("Jeans");
children.Add().Text("Knitwear");
children.Add().Text("Shirts");
children.Add().Text("Belts");
children.Add().Text("Socks");
children.Add().Text("Fan Zone");
});
items.Add()
.Text("Ladies")
.Items(children =>
{
children.Add().Text("Jackets and Coats");
children.Add().Text("Jeans");
children.Add().Text("Knitwear");
children.Add().Text("Shirts");
children.Add().Text("Belts");
children.Add().Text("Socks");
children.Add().Text("Fan Zone");
});
items.Add()
.Text("Kids")
.Items(children =>
{
children.Add().Text("Jackets and Coats");
children.Add().Text("Jeans");
children.Add().Text("Knitwear");
children.Add().Text("Shirts");
children.Add().Text("Belts");
children.Add().Text("Socks");
children.Add().Text("Fan Zone");
});
items.Add()
.Text("Sports");
items.Add()
.Text("Brands");
items.Add()
.Text("Accessories");
items.Add()
.Text("Promotions");
items.Add()
.Text("Contacts");
items.Add()
.Text("About us");
})
)
</div>
<style>
.k-menu-scroll-wrapper.horizontal li.k-item.k-last {
border-right-width: 0;
}
</style>
And I didn't change anything in HomeController.cs:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
namespace Work_Time_Record.Controllers
{
public class HomeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.Message = "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC!";
return View();
}
}
}
Is there any issue about controller? I'm new in ASP.Net MVC, Please let me know if need more information!
Thanks a lot,
Mike
Hi,
I feel like I may be missing something, but like my title says, my grid is not populating with data after the read function. Here is my code:
// grid
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" /> <title></title></head><body> <div> @(Html.Kendo().Grid<DataManager.Models.CommodityCodesViewModels.IndexViewModel>() .Name("commodityCodesGrid") .Columns(columns => { columns.Bound(c => c.CommodityCodeId).Width(100); columns.Bound(c => c.CommodityCode).Width(100); columns.Bound(c => c.Description).Width(100); }) .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "height: 700px;" }) .Scrollable(s => s.Height(700)) .Groupable() .Sortable() .Pageable(pageable => pageable .Refresh(true) .PageSizes(true) .ButtonCount(5)) .Filterable() .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource .Custom() .Batch(true) .PageSize(20) .Schema(schema => schema.Model(m => m.Id(p => p.CommodityCodeId))) .Transport(transport => { transport.Read(read => read.Url("http://localhost:51088/api/commoditycodes") .DataType("jsonp") ); }) )) </div></body></html>
// View Model
public class IndexViewModel{ public int CommodityCodeId { get; set; } [Required, MaxLength(3)] public string CommodityCode { get; set; } [Required, MaxLength(50)] public string Description { get; set; }}
I have also attached two screenshots. One illustrates the returned data via the corresponding url, and the other shows the response when testing the grid.
Thanks,
Ruben
