Hello,

We have purchased a license for KendoUI. I have downloaded the 'KendoUIComplete' NuGet package from the downloads page (KendoUIComplete.AspNet.Mvc.2013.3.1316.nupkg). Am I within the license to host the NuGet package on an internal NuGet server for accessibility and performance?

Paul.

[Solved] Default behavior for ToDataSource changed in 2013.3.1316

Hi Guys!

I have just recently updated my web application project MVC5 EF6 from kendo 2013.3.1119 to 2013.3.1316 and have noticed default behavior changed when calling ToDataSourceResult on a EF table value mapped function.
Previously when calling ToDataSourceResult without any SortDescriptors the order will be applied on first column. But in current version when calling ToDataSourceResult without any SortDescriptors it no longer adds order by first column.

Would like to know if this recent change is a feature or not ?

Cheers!

Numeric Text Box on Mobile

Hi,
I am trying to get the numeric text box to be of type 'number' so that it displays the numeric keypad on mobile, but uses the arrows on desktop.
But from looking at the code, it appears that the input type should be 'number', so I am confused.
I am probably missing something as I am relativley new to kendo.

Thanks in advance.

K-Windows look odd in popup editors

I see that kendo has added an i-frame qualifier to kendo window editors, this causes them to have no padding and makes the content appear flush with the window border.

This looks strange and should be fixed.

Adding your own padding causes a vertical scrollbar to appear.

Delay in closing window and no loading panel shows either

Hi,

I am using a partial view to open as a pop-up editor window from my Index view.
I have custom edit & submit buttons in this window.
I use the $(".k-grid-update").trigger('click'); code to update and close the window after the custom code has completed but there is a substantial delay before closing the window and no activity or loading panel appears to show the form is being processed. It simply hangs for a couple of seconds and then completes the process by closing.
I've tried to force a custom 'Busy Indicator' once the form has been submitted but even this appears and disappears yet the window still remains open and closes after a delay.

My code for the custom button is below.

can you please let me know why there is such a long delay (2-3 seconds delay before closing)?
If this is normal then is there any way to show an indicator so the user knows the form is being processed and the window will be closed. So the users does not attempt to re-submit their form?

Regards,

Shuja

!function ($) {

$.extend($.fn, {

busyIndicator: function (c) {

b = $(this);

var d = b.find(".k-loading-mask");

c ? d.length || (d = $(

"<div class='k-loading-mask'><span class='k-loading-text'>Loading...</span><div class='k-loading-image'/><div class='k-loading-color'/></div>"

).width(b.outerWidth()).height(b.outerHeight()).prependTo(b)) : d && d.remove()

}

});

}(jQuery);

function ApprovalSubmit() {

var r = confirm("Are you sure you want to submit your approval selection?");

if (r == false) {

alert('Form NOT submitted');

return;

}

ErrorMsgClear();

var qiaComments = $('#QiaStatusComments').val();

var mainDiv = $("#MainDiv").closest("div.k-window");

mainDiv.busyIndicator(true); // show

mainDiv.busyIndicator(false); // hide

/*mainDiv.data("kendoWindow").close();

win.kendoWindow({

return;

Please help me to resolve the issue.

Thanks and Regards

Problem with version 2013.3 1316 and a Kendo Grid populated by AJAX Datasource?

Hello Kendo,

I had been running version 2013.3.1119.440 of the Kendo.Mvc.dll in my MVC 4 application. Grid was working fine. This morning I downloaded and installed the latest version of Kendo. I updated my project, and was referencing the new .dll .... when I ran the application all seemed to be working fine (drop downs, tools tips, etc), all except for the Kendo grid. My grid is populated via Ajax calls. The grid does not load the data, but all associated data calls seem to be working fine. (i.e. counts on data pulls, etc) Such counts display fine, drop down is pulling data just fine ... just no data is displayed in the Grid.

I had to uninstall version 2013.3 1316, and re-install the previous version 2013.3.1119 ... recreated the reference in my application, and then the Grid was working fine. All is back to normal.

Please confirm that the Grid works with an AJAX datasource ... and if there is something wrong with the latest download.

Thanks,

Carl

Additional data is not sent with the read request with the Q3 2013 service pack release (v. 2013.3.1316)

If your are using the Q3 2013 service pack release, the additional data added with the read request Data function will not be sent to the server because of a bug in the transport. In order to avoid the problem, please use the latest internal build in which the problem is fixed.

Kendo DatePicker bug in popup editor

The Kendo DatePicker has a bug it seems when you place it in a popup editor.
This widget does not bind to a DateTime model property when you place it in a popup editor.
In the attached sample project I changed the culture in the web.config to 'auto' which on my workstation is set to 'en-AU.'
In this sample the 'PostedOn' property is a nullable DateTime though it makes no difference to this bug.
Adding ParseFormats strings makes no difference either.

This project is a modified sample that you have provided previously (see URL: http://www.kendoui.com/forums/kendo-ui-web/date-time-pickers/datetimepicker-format-doesn-t-work-with-initial-default-value.aspx)
As you can see from the attached screenshot kendo datepicker reports on erroneous date even though it is a valid date.
Outside the popup editor, this same datepicker works perfectly good.
Any workaround?

Regards,
Menashay

Set a default value if the bound value is null

Hi ,

I am using a combobox with a remote datasource. This field is bound to an integer property on my model.In the case of adding creating a new record combobox doesn't show any selection as the property is null.

@{

Html.Kendo()

.ComboBoxFor(model => model.SendFromId)

.DataTextField("Text")

.DataValueField("Value")

.HtmlAttributes(new { style = "width:250px", data_value_primitive = "true" })

.DataSource(source =>

{

source.Read(read =>

{

read.Action("People", "Home");

});

})

.Events(e=>

{

e.Change("onComboChanged");

})

.Deferred()

.Render();

}

Now I need to set a default value when the property is null. I have tried to set using the Value but it causes problem while edit.Though I change the selection and submit the form the Value parameter shows up again if I try to edit the record.
Did anyone have this kind of scenario before. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Ramoji
