I have a combobox as a wrapper in MVC within a cshtml page.  I need to modify the read.URL to build my url and supply the appropriate search criteria.  I found a similar question and provided a link below to the answer, however this is using pure javascript and doesn't really fit my situation. How do i create a custom function in the .Read of the datasource so that i can build my url but do it with the MVC Wrapper?  Also is there more detailed documentation with comments etc the api just shows you a very slim example for a feature and doesn't really document what is going on.  Any help would be appreciated.

 Link to answer that answers my exact question but i need the answer for the MVC Wrapper not javascript:

When I try to add checkboxes to the TreeView,devtools int he browser show I am getting "Invalid Template"

This works (but no checkboxes).  But if I uncomment the ".Checkboxes part, it throws error.  I have tried many variants, including just ".Checkboxes(true)".

<script id="UserDetailsTemplate" type="text/kendo-tmpl">

    @*@Html.Kendo().TextBox().Value("foo #= User_Login#").Name("yoda_#=User_Login#")*@
    @(Html.Kendo()
          .TabStrip()
          .Name("userTabStrip_#=Person_ID#")
          .SelectedIndex(0)
          .Items((items) =>
                 {
                     items.Add()
                          .Text("Contact Info");
                     items.Add()
                          .Text("Permissions")
                          .Content(obj => Html.Kendo()
                                              .TreeView()
                                              .DataTextField("Name")
                                              .Name("userModulePermissions#=Person_ID#")
                                              //.Checkboxes(cbxConfig => cbxConfig.Enabled(true)
                                              //                                  .CheckChildren(true)
                                              //                                  .Name("checkedNodes"))
                                              .DataSource(d => d.Read("PermissionsTree_Read",
                                                                      "SettingsUsers"))
                                              .ToClientTemplate());
                     items.Add()
                          .Text("Group Membership");
                 })
          .ToClientTemplate()
          )
</script>

Here is the action the provides the tree data:

         public JsonResult PermissionsTree_Read(long? id)
        {
            var moduleId = id;
            var tracDB = new TRACEntities();
            // because modules & permissions are not same thing, we have to distinguish what "level" we are at in the tree
            // modules are root level, permissions (sub_sections) are next (leaf) level
            if (moduleId == null)
            {
                var result = GetOrgModules()
                    .Select(m => new {   
                                         id = m.Module_Type_ID,
                                         Name = m.Module_Type_Name,
                                         hasChildren = GetUserModuleSubsectionPermissions(m.Module_Type_ID).Any(),
                                         @checked = false
                    });
                return Json(result,
                            JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
            }
            else
            {
                var result = GetUserModuleSubsectionPermissions((long) moduleId)
                    .Select(p => new {
                                         id = p.Sub_Section_Type_Id,
                                         Name = p.Sub_Section_Type_Desc,
                                         hasChildren = false,  //always leaves
                                         //@checked = false  //I have tried with and without this line -- it was just a guess that this was needed
                                     });
                return Json(result,
                            JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
            }
        }

Here's my ViewModel

    public class EmailStartsViewModel
    {
        public int Year { get; set; }
        public int Week { get; set; }
        public int Starts { get; set; }
    }​

 I would like to display a line chart that has a category axis value for each week of the year i.e. 1 - 52, and that groups the data by year, so that it display a line for each year.

The data covers 2012 through the present, and looks like this: 

Year     Week Starts
2013    1         1
2015    1         11
2014    2         1
2015    2         8
2013    3         3
2015    3         20
2013    4         9
2015    4         30
2012    5        1
2013    5        3
2014    5        1
2015    5        18

etc up to week 53 (because of partial weeks) 

With these settings 

                  .DataSource(ds => ds
                      .Read(read => read
                          .Action("StartData", "Starts")
                          .Data("StartSettings"))
                      .Group( group => group.Add(model => model.Year))
                              .Sort(sort => sort.Add(model => model.Week))
                  )
                  .Series(series =>
                  {
                      series.Line(model => model.Starts, categoryExpression: model => model.Week).Name("Starts");

                  })
                  .CategoryAxis(axis => axis
                      .Categories(model => model.Week)
                  )​

It starts with week 5 which is the first week that has data in the first year. Weeks 1-4 aren't displayed

I've tried various combinations like directly specifiying the categories 

.CategoryAxis(axis => axis
                      .Categories("1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6"....."52"))

and removing the categoryExpression in 

series.Line(model => model.Starts, categoryExpression: model => model.Week).Name("Starts");​

and it either doesn't show all the weeks, or puts values in the wrong category, or both.

 What's the right way to go about this?

 The treeview events demo has event handlers such as the following:

         function onCheck(e) {

                  kendoConsole.log("Checkbox changed :: " + this.text(e.node));

                  //???????  do something useful  ?????

         }

But how would I do something useful, like get ID, checked status (checked or unchecked), or other fields of the item checked?

If the data source has model with fields "Id", "name", "something", how would I get those values?

I wish to connect the treeview checkboxes to an "enabled" field for records in my database.

Specifically, when a checkbox is clicked, I want to all an action to update the corresponding enabled field.

Also, with checkchildren(true), I want to likewise update the enabled field of all children.

What are the basics of how to do this?

The only demo using checkboxes also uses hard-coded tree items, with no connection to remote data.

Hi telerik team,

I've a Multi-column comboBox and I need to get the value of 3 of the columns when the user select one item in JavaScript.

Here's my comboBox code:

Can anyone give me a clue about how to read the value of "ID", "Reference" and "InternalCode" in the comboBox1_onChange event?

Thank you.

I'm trying to use Kendo UI Grid in Orchard CMS (http://orchardproject.net) and I've almost been able to get it to work all the way but I can't seem to get validation to work. I've decorated my model with:

        [DisplayName("Namn")]
        [Required(ErrorMessage = "Ange värde")]
        public string Name { get; set; }

but when I try to update/create with empty value I get an error:

{"Message":"The request is invalid.","ModelState":{"civilStatusTypeViewModel.Name":["Ange värde"]}}​

But I am not getting any "visual validation" error message in the page.

It is quite complicated to setup Kendo UI with Orchard so this is most likely a configuration error, like a missing .css or .js, but I can't figure out where to look so I would be grateful for any help on how to solve this.
