Hi All

We are new to Kendo, hence this might be a simple scenario that we are not able to get around.

We have a grid, in which Employee Name column is actually a DropDown selection with in column that uses DropDownFor. We initially bound our column to Employee Object in the Model, but then Filtering, Export to Excel etc features didn't work. Upon some research we found that we need to bind to a view model that has only basic data types and not any complex data types.

We then created a view model on top of our Model and bind that to grid, but doing this we have lost the Employee Id which was earlier being set properly. Grid now shows Employee Name only which is not a unique field, we need to know the ID of selected member.

Can you please help us understand how we bind an object to column and still preserve all features of the grid like Filtering etc. 

If that is not possible can you suggest a way where in we can set ID of selected employee within viewmodel and not just name.

Please let me know if I can explain any further.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm using scheduler timeline view. When browser is in full screen , it works well. But after resized, resource header goes to misaligned just like attached.
Yellow is <td> , red is <div class="k-scheduler-items">.

How can I fix it?

There must be something about the ToDataSourceResult method that I do not understand.  When DataSourceRequest.Page is 1, the resulting DataSourceResult.Data has the 10 elements that I passed into it, but, if DataSourceRequest.Page is 2, the resulting DataSourceResult.Data has 0 elements.  It is as if ToDataSourceResult is doing paging by only selecting the elements for the selected page range, but I am doing my own paging, so I want all elements passed to ToDataSourceResult to be included in DataSourceResult.Data.  Does this mean I should not be using ToDataSourceResult and should just populate the Data field manually?

I have the data source defined using Read for my Kendo MVC grid.  Every time that the data is refreshed, I want to include some data from the browser.  I don't care if  I have to use params or query string or whatever, but I need to be able to specify values to include in the ajax call to the server and those values will change as the user interacts with the page.  How do I get those values included in the ajax call?  There must be a standard way to do this, since it is hard to imagine a grid without fields on the screen controlling the grid data, but I cannot find any examples of this in the demos.

We are using the Kendo Grid for MVC and provider a software for agencies to see their list of clients. One of our grids is fairly large and has about 15 columns, and depending on the agency there can be upwards of 15,000 records returned within this single grid. We are noticing that the load time in this scenario is very long (9 seconds). I would have thought that by using ajax and paging that this time would be much lower and that as you change places or search in the headers it would do another call with those filters.

Here is what we have currently.

What can be done to speed up this grid?

Found a similar question here: https://www.telerik.com/forums/datarangepicker-label-localization

So I know, this element is new to Kendo UI and the localization files aren't completed. The difference to the post is, I'm using MVC. Is it possible to modify the missing localization values through razor? Or directly change the "Start" and "End" messages?

If not, how can I implement the solution in the other thread? Or are there other solutions?

Before someone is asking. The localization for other elements works properly:

<script src="https://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2020.1.219/js/cultures/kendo.culture.de-DE.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2020.1.219/js/messages/kendo.messages.de-DE.min.js"></script>

I have a simple kendo editor in my MVC app. When using Firefox, BR tag is being added at the end of the string typed into the editor. This does happen in Firefox only.

@(Html.Kendo().Editor().Name("MyEditor")

.HtmlAttributes(new { cols = "5", rows = "5", style = "width: 500px;height:50px" })

.Tools(tools => tools.Clear()))

var r = $('#MyEditor').data('kendoEditor').value()

How should it be fixed, so I don't get the unwanted html?

I use ToDataSource to return a subset of records to display in the grid, using the DataSourceRequest's Page and PageSize to determine which rows to return.  What I can't figure out is how to indicate to the grid how many total records there are, so that it can display the right page count.  Is this as simple as returning a different structure that includes the total record count or what?  I cannot find any examples of this online.

return Json(enumerable.ToDataSourceResult(request));

I had the following set up using version 2020.1.114:

bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/kendo/css")
                .Include("~/Content/kendo/2020.1.114/kendo.bootstrap-v4.min.css")
                .Include("~/Content/kendo/2020.1.114/kendo.mobile.all.min.css")
            );

bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/kendo")
                .Include("~/Scripts/kendo/2020.1.114/kendo.all.min.js")
                .Include("~/Scripts/kendo/2020.1.114/kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js")
            );

@Styles.Render("~/Content/kendo/css")

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/kendo")

I used the VS extension to upgrade to 2020.1.406, changed the paths in BundleConfig.cs, recompiled, and now the <link> and <script> tags don't get rendered at all.  This is all with "debug=true".  The other bundles I have set up are rendering fine... It's ONLY the kendo ones that don't.

Literally only upgraded to 2020.1.406.  Nothing else changed in the application.

Anybody else seeing this issue?

Thanks in advance!
