I have created a window as below. How do I open this window from a button click? I have set visible to false so it doesn't show at start up. How do I then show this window from a button?

@(Html.Kendo().Window()
.Name("kendoWindow") //The name of the window is mandatory. It specifies the "id" attribute of the widget.
.Title("Login") //set the title of the window
.Content(@<text>
This is my window.
</text>)
.Draggable() //Enable dragging of the window
.Resizable() //Enable resizing of the window
.Width(600) //Set width of the window
.Modal(true)
.Visible(true)
)

Selecting rows on several pages

Hi,

In one of my projects I have to display a Popup window with a grid (it is binded to a remote data source), allow the user to select
multiple rows from any of the grid's pages and copy them to another grid datasource when the user hit a button.

I have almost succeed in the way:

I'm able to display both grid
I have added a checkbox to each row to allow users to select rows
store the Ids of my selected rows in a json string
restore selection when user move from one page to another
Get the list of selected Ids

The problem I have now is that I'm able to copy to the target datasource only the data items of the current page.
Herebelow is the javascript function I use to copy data item:

function moveTo(from, to) {

for (var i in checkedIds) {

var isFound = to.dataSource.get(checkedIds[i]);

if (checkedIds[i] != "") {

if (isFound == undefined) {

// Set 'From' Datasource to the correct page

var ItemIdx = i % from.dataSource.pageSize();

var PageNb = ((i - (ItemIdx)) / from.dataSource.pageSize()) + 1;

//alert("Item: " + ItemIdx + " Page: " + PageNb);

from.dataSource.page(PageNb);

var view = from.dataSource.view();

var item = view[ItemIdx];

to.dataSource.add(item);

}

When copying item from a not displayed page, the item from the current page, with the same index is copied instead
Note that the ItemIdx and PageNb are correct, this was double checked.

what am I doing wrong ?

Window won't open after calling "load" on an unrelated div.

I have a window on my page:

@(Html.Kendo().Window()
.Name("window")
.Title("Add New Comment").LoadContentFrom("AddComment", "Comparisons", new { startDate = @ViewBag.startDate, endDate = @ViewBag.endDate })

.Draggable()
.Resizable()
.Width(450).Height(500)
.Position(settings => settings.Top(100).Left(100)).Visible(false).Modal(true).Iframe(true)
.Actions(actions => actions.Close())
)

I open the window with a hyperlink, here is the binding:

$("#addCommentLink").click(function () {
$("#window").data("kendoWindow").refresh().open();
});

I have a div that's not related at all to the window.

<div id='dummy'></div>

At some point I load the div with a partial render.

function ReloadCommentSection() {
$("#dummy").load('@Url.Action("CommentEventSection", new { startDate = @ViewBag.startDate, endDate = @ViewBag.endDate })');
}

Once that div is loaded, the window won't open any more. I get an error that  $("#window").data("kendoWindow") is undefined.

What am I doing wrong?

Adding aggregates to group headers

I have a grid ( built with javascript not razor ).
I have aggregates running on several columns and they display fine in the footer of each group once a grouping is added.
if I minimise the group then that information is hidden so I would like to move all the aggregates in the header of each group so they are always visible even when the group is minimised.
The standard groupHeaderTemplate only applies when that particular column is added to a group. What I want is for the aggregates to show regardless of which column is added to the group.

Is this possible ?

Positioning grid incell tooltip validation message

Hi,

I was having a hard time in trying to figure out how to position the validation message of an editable cell. My problem is that once it appears it is blocking the cell itself.

Thanks in advance.

Grid in Mobile Tabstrip and 2 mobile grids on 1 page

In trying to develop a website using the MVCwrappers I am having 2 issues related to the grid.
- When 2 mobile grids are on a page the bottom grid covers half of the top grid.
- I have a grid in a mobile tabstrip, but the grid will not display if the Mobile property is set to "PHONE". However, it does show up when set to "AUTO".

Dropdownlist passing weird dates to another datasource

Hi ,

In one of my project I have to let the user pickup on item from a dropdown list and then Add the corresponding Item from my model to a Grid datasource.
The Dropdown list is bind to a property of my ViewModel which is filled by the controller. The grid datasource is also bind to another ViewModel property which is empty and should be passed to controller upon From submit. Both properties are of the same type (TempPp)

My viewmodel contains 2 DateTime properties and after calling the values of those two properties are not displayed properly in the grid

The value sent by the controller is {01/11/2012 00:00:00} and the displayed value is /Date(1351724400000)/
or {31/12/2013 00:00:00} and /Date(1388444400000)/

Here is myViewmodel

01.using System;

02.using System.Collections.Generic;

03.using System.Linq;

04.using System.Web;

05.using Airbus.Asam.Contracts;

06.using Airbus.Asam.BusinessObjects;

07.

08.namespace Customer.Asam.Presentation.Supplier.ViewModels

09.{

10. public class TempPP

11. {

12. public Boolean isInDB { get; set; }

13. public string ID { get; set; }

14. public string PPSRCAPPLICATION { get; set; }

15. public string PPREF { get; set; }

16. public string PPSITE { get; set; }

17. public string DESCRIPTION { get; set; }

18. public System.DateTime DATEFROM { get; set; }

19. public System.DateTime DATETO { get; set; }

20. public string PPLEVEL { get; set; }

21. public Nullable<decimal> QUOTA { get; set; }

22. }

23.}

Here is a simplified version of my Razor view:

@model Customer.Asam.Presentation.Supplier.ViewModels.ARRViewmodel

@using Customer.Asam.Resources

@using Customer.Asam.Presentation.Supplier.Common

@using (Html.BeginForm("Create_Step3", "", FormMethod.Get, new { @id = "FORM_ARR_3" }))

{

<div>

<h2>@Asam_Strings.TITLE_CREATE_ARR_STEP 3 @Asam_Strings.TITLE_CREATE_ARR_PREVENTION_PLAN</h2>

@Asam_Strings.LABEL_PP_REFERENCE

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()

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

.BindTo(Model.tempPP)

.Name("tempPP") //The name of the combobox is mandatory. It specifies the "id" attribute of the widget.

.DataTextField("PPREF") //Specifies which property of the Product to be used by the combobox as a text.

.DataValueField("ID") //Specifies which property of the Product to be used by the combobox as a value.

.Events(e => e

.Select(@<text>

function(e) {

e.preventDefault();

var dataItem = this.dataItem(e.item.index());

if (e.item.index() > 0)

{

var grid = $("#RefPP").data("kendoGrid");

grid.dataSource.add(dataItem);

}

} </text>))

)

<script>

function indexPP(dataItem) {

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

return data.indexOf(dataItem);

}

</script>

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model.RefPP)

.Name("RefPP")

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.PageSize(1)

.ServerOperation(false)

)

.Columns(column =>

{

column.Bound(c => c.PPREF)

.ClientTemplate("#= PPREF # " +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].PPREF' value='#= PPREF #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].PPSRCAPPLICATION' value='#= PPSRCAPPLICATION #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].PPSITE' value='#= PPSITE #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].DESCRIPTION' value='#= DESCRIPTION #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].DATEFROM' value='#= DATEFROM #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].DATETO' value='#= DATETO #' />" +

"<input type='hidden' name='RefPP[#= indexPP(data)#].QUOTA' value='#= QUOTA #' />");

column.Bound(c => c.PPSITE);

column.Bound(c => c.DESCRIPTION);

column.Bound(c => c.DATEFROM)

.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}");

column.Bound(c => c.DATETO)

.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}");

column.Bound(c => c.QUOTA);

}

)

</div>

}

Disable alpha input / validation

I've read through the API and was wondering if there is a way to only allow dates to be selected from the calendar OR a real date typed in. Currently someone could type in "Bill" or "I want to type an alphanumeric sentence"... I'd like to prevent someone from even entering anything except for a valid date.

I am currently validating this value after the fact and then alerting the user they have entered an invalid date, but just want to be able to cut out that step (or at least part of it) if possible.

Thanks
Jason

Grid Create & Update sending malformed JSON to server

This means my model is not binding and the operations are not working.

The read method works just fine, but that is it.... For Example, my Destroy Method:

CONTROLLER:
public ActionResult Memo_Delete(MemoModel memo)
{
using (var context = new eEntities.eWJB())
{
Note _note = context.Notes.First(i => i.nMemoID == memo.memoID);
context.Notes.Remove(_note);
context.SaveChanges();
}
return Json(new[] { memo }.ToDataSourceResult(request, ModelState));
}

The JS Below sends the following malformed JSON to the Controller: It looks like Query Parameters / Not JSON:

Any Suggestions? I have tried the parameter mapping with no luck.

clientID=8&memoID=2&memoTime=Sat+May+08+2004+13%3A05%3A00+GMT-0700+(Pacific+Daylight+Time)&subject=General+Notes&memo=%24200+Appraisal+%230403053&initials=MM&code=4&eyesOnly=false&sticky=false
