I'm using Kendo().DropDownList() with OptionLabel configured.

When trying to get selected item Text / Value, I'm getting incorrect values.

for example if I choose the first drop down option I'm getting the value of the option label.

if I choose the second option I'm getting the values of the first option.

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
            .Name("SelectedSubjectId")
            .DataTextField("Text")
            .DataValueField("Value")
            .Filter("contains")
            .OptionLabel("Select Subject")
            .BindTo(Model.MailSubjectList)
            .Events(events =>
                    {
                        events.Select("onSelect");
                    })
        )

Javascript:

onSelect = function (e) {
    var dataItem = this.dataItem(e.item.index());

     // or even

    var selectedValue = this.value()

    var selectedText = this.text()

};

How can I get the correct selected value (Text / Value) ?

Thank you.

To avoid sending thousands of records back to my control, I have set the minlength equal to 2. This has been working without issue until I upgraded Kendo UI from a 2014 version to the latest 2015 version. The filtering and control works but the first time you type to start filtering and you reach your minlength, the dropdown appears(as expected with the filtered data) but the text that was typed in the combobox gets erased. When you continue typing, no additional filtering happens until you reach the minlength, at which point the control behaves correctly. The only way for the problem to reoccur in that control again is to reload the page.

I have several pages that use this control. All of them now have this behavior but worked fine before the upgrade.

Let' s say, there a mvc grid with a dropdown list inside it. The grid has three mode; view edit and add modes, in other words users are able to  view, edit, and add records.

The data source of this dropdown list changes dynamically depending on the modes; for example,

if in view mode, the ddl lists item1, item2, item3 item4, and item5,

if in Add mode, the ddl lists item2, item3.

if in Edit mode, the ddl lists item2, item5,

That means the ddl source from different linq queries depending on grid modes.

Is it possible to achieve it? Thanks

Hi

I am using a customized response for the grid which contains the default "data" JSON in a property, such as:

{
  "success": true,
  "result": {
    "data": [
      {
        "srtOrder": 60,
        "id": 1
      },
      {
        "srtOrder": 70,
        "id": 1
      },
      {
        "srtOrder": 30,
        "id": 5
      }
    ],
    "total": 96,
    "aggregateResults": null,
    "errors": null
  },
  "error": null,
  "unAuthorizedRequest": false
}

So the grid should use the data from the "result" property.

How can I define this using the MVC version of the grid?

My model which is attached to the grid matches the "data" property.

Hi,

 I am bind the kendo grid @ Client side. Any idea of how to show the destroy delete command based on other column status? Appreciate your help on this.

Thanks,

Hi all:

 We have a functional requirement to be able to edit the data in a column inside a kendo grid, by selecting a different header.

 For example, let's say we have a kendo grid that has six columns. 

 Name City Class etc

We need the ability for a user (with the given permission) to select a different option for each header column. 

Let's say they decide that they don't want "Class" as the third header/column.  We'd like the user to be able to click into the header, a dropdown appear and then the user can select a different data source.  Once selected the grid would update with the new data in the third column.

 Anyone able to point me in the right direction?  We also need to be able to reorder the kendo columns but I see that already with the Grid/Column reordering drag drop feature which is perfect.

 Thanks!
