I've been developing an app for some time now using the Kendo UI MVC wrappers. I just updated my Telerik components with version 2014.2.1008 this weekend. All of a sudden, the DatePickerFor is not working correctly for nullable DateTime values where it had been working before. Instead of a non-null date value being displayed, I see something like {0:17} in the edit box and it won't validate.

Assuming my model has a property like this:

     public DateTime? DueDate { get; set; }

The following .cshtml markup produces the erroneous result:

    @Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(model => model.DueDate)

The following .cshtml markup produces the correct result, but I can't use it because the value may be null:

    @Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(model => model.DueDate.Value)

I can't deploy other code I've been working on tonight because of this problem. I need a resolution to this ASAP.

When I group the Grid, the vertical lines are broken that separates the columns. Is there a way to force the Grid to have those lines not broken by the grouping rows. Please see attached Image.

I have just migrated an ASPNET application that was relying on Telerik ASPNET controls (i.e., the good'ol Rad* server controls) to ASPNET MVC using UI for ASPNET MVC. All nice & fine so far, until migrating the look&feel of the old app.
Thing is we have customized the ASPNET Rad*-controls to a high degree (using the predefined CSS classes). And since the UI for ASPNET MVC uses different styling method (Kendo UI-based, that is k-* CSS classes for most part), I am wondering if there is any tool/decently quick way to migrate the old ASPNET classes to these Kendo ones for MVC?!
Thanks in advance (and sorry if this topic already exists, but my search did not yield such results).

Hi
I am looking for same functionality of Telerik WebMail demo (http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/webmail/default.aspx) but in MVC.

Do we have a same demo in MVC as well
Can we use same controls in MVC

Thanks

I'm using the scheduling control for a custom application and my customers have asked to show only the US timezones, how do I go about doing this?

Hi,

On batch update in the grid it sends two sets of requests one to do update and another to do create
Is there a way to send only one request so that I get all the errors back in a single modelstate object

Thanks,
Annie

Hi:

Is there a way we could increase the width of the vertical scroll bar in Kendo grid? What is the styling property i should use?
Can you please provide a sample snippet?

Thank You,

Title:
Kendo MVC grid – how to send an ajax post from javascript (or jquery) along with currently selected row of
data from grid (without using the "update" built in button of the grid)

I tried to create hidden variables for the model that the grid is using so that
the controller can grab it, when we do an ajax post. The following code doesn’t
seem to wrok.

What am I missing?

Steps I did in my code and the questions:

-    Created submit button; when the button is clicked, it
should grab the currently selected row of data from grid and pass it to the
controller.

-    Getting the current row seems to work in the javascript I wrote below ($("#btnSearch").click)
and the ajax post goes to the conttoller. But then the model data does NOT have DisposalContainer filled in. Am I
making a mistake in ClientTemplate of mvc grid (when i am trying to make some hidden variables for the model) or am I NOT passing the DisposalContainer (or any model data would do fine) correctly?

 My model that is bound to the grid is:
    [Serializable]
    public class PackUnitModelView
    {
        public string Item;
        public int ShippedQty;
        public int ReturnedQty;
        public string ItemDescription;
        public string DisposalContainer;        // Non-Harzardous, Flammable-INC15-E2, Reactive-BPO, Flammable-AF07
    }

===================================================================================

Code in the controller:

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult PackUnits_Update(PackUnitModelView packUnit, string packageID)

{

  // will do some db persistent stuff.

  Return View();

}

Code in the view (*.cshtml):

==================================================================================

    <input type="Submit" id="btnSearch" style="height:32px; font-size:14px; background-color:#3399FF" class="k-button" title="Search" value="Search" />

 

==================================================================================

    @(Html.Kendo().Grid<PackUnitModelView>()

        .Name("gridPackUnits")

        .Columns(columns =>

        {

            // do
this in case if I need to pass pacakage unique id along with each
PackUnitModel.

            //
columns.Bound(c => c.Id).Visible(false);

            columns.Bound(c =>
c.Item).Title("Item").Width(50)

                    .ClientTemplate("#= Item #" +

                            "<input type='hidden' name='PackUnitModelView[#=
index(data)#].Item' value='#= Item #' />");

 

            columns.Bound(c =>
c.ShippedQty).Title("Shipped").Width(60).HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:center" })  // For text alignment on the column use the HtmlAtributes
like it is done here.

                    .ClientTemplate("#= ShippedQty #" +

                            "<input type='hidden' name='PackUnitModelView[#=
index(data)#].ShippedQty' value='#= ShippedQty#' />");

           

            columns.Bound(c =>
c.ReturnedQty).Title("Returned").Width(60).HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:center" });

                    //columns.Bound(e =>
e.Industry).ClientTemplate("#= Industry #" +

                    //"<input type='hidden' name='Occupation[#=
index(data)#].Industry' value='#= Industry#' />");

           

            columns.Bound(c =>
c.ItemDescription).Title("Item
Description").Width(250);

            columns.Bound(c =>
c.DisposalContainer).Title("Disposal
Container").Width(150);

        })

       

        .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "height: 290px;"
})       //
grid height

        .Scrollable()

        .Selectable()

        //.Groupable()          // This will show the title for the
grid and the title text can be set via jscript code
"kendo.ui.Groupable.prototype.options.messages =.." below

        .Sortable()

        .RowAction(row =>

                        {

                            //if (condition) // would be check the container hazardous
stata - then color as red

                            {

                               
row.HtmlAttributes["class"] = "k-state-selected";

                            }

                        })

        .Reorderable(reorder =>
reorder.Columns(false))

        .Resizable(r => r.Columns(true))

        .Events(e => e.DataBound("DataBoundGrid"))

        .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

            .Ajax()

            .Read(read => read.Action("PackUnits_Read", "Main"))

            .Update(update => update.Action("PackUnits_Update", "Main", new { packageID = "111-11-1111" }))

        )

    )

   ===============================================================================

Javascript functions:        

// Index function to get the dynamic value of columns and put in the hidden variable of
//html page - so that model can be bound to controller function when we do HttpPos (via ajax typically).

function index(dataItem) {

        var data = $("#gridPackUnits").data("kendoGrid").dataSource.data();

        return data.indexOf(dataItem);

    }

============================================================================
$("#btnSearch").click(function (e) {
            var grid = $("#gridPackUnits").data("kendoGrid");
            var selectedBackup = grid.dataItem(grid.select());

            if (selectedBackup == null)
                return;
            selectedBackup.dirty = true;

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "Main/PackUnits_Update",   // post to your controller action that does what you want
to do with the model
                dataType: "json",
                data: { DisposalContainer: 'cont', PackageID: 1234}
            });

           e.preventDefault();

        });

    });

Hi,

I wonder if it's possible to hide a row when I'm grouping the results by column but still showing the ClientGroupFooterTemplate in my case is "Subtotal".

I attach a image to explain better the scenario.

And here's my code


Thanks for the help I hope it's possible

Hi There,

I'm trying to get a combo box to have a custom template depending on the row, as it needs to have essentially sub headers within the combobox. Currently using a non-Kendo combobox we have this however is something like this even possible within Kendo?
