Hi, 
I am just getting started with Kendo UI and am having trouble getting the Inline-Editing of a Grid to render properly when using the Html Helper (Html.Kendo().Grid<>()). Kendo seems to interfere with the default MVC 4 and MVC 5 styles even when I have a fresh "Kendo UI C#" project created right out of the box.

I am tempted to give up on the Html Helpers all together and use the JS only route using Json calls for every data load etc, but it seems I would have to do quite a bit more work.

I have attached a screenshot that shows the styling issues I mean. For instance all textboxes are 300px wide (which I believe is the MVC template default). How have you worked around this?



Thanks,
Matt

Hi!

I'm trying to make a scheduler read-only by setting scheduler.options.editable = false. This prevents users from creating new events, from double-clicking to get the editor, and from resizing events. However, they are still able to MOVE events. 

How can I disable that as well, and thus make the scheduler truly read-only?

Best regards,

Hi,

I am using the image browser to upload  images to  FTP server(we are using Akamai FTP). I have written a process  whereby the file is uploaded,and the MVC controller uploads and saves the image in my FTP specified location with the same name with which is is uploaded as.  It then returns the JSON result with that name of the image. I have checked the sample "KendoEditorImageBrowser" given by your team but  this process is working perfectly on a local machine. However, for FTP server or for other locations the image was uploaded, but the thumbnail keeps on rotating.

While debugging the code I found that the Thumbnail is getting called with only the file name but not the path with Which I call or  in which the file is located(I have provided the path location in code) which is of no help for me.

But when I close and reopen my Image Browser the image is getting loaded correctly.  I am using the latest Kendo UI version

This is my Controller code:

Hi,

Attended your webinar yesterday and they said that the new responsive controls would integrate perfectly with bootstrap 3. I was just wondering, I actually started a new Asp.net mvc project with the bootstrap 3 template last friday, and integrated KendoUI with it. I found it to be a bit of a hassle because of the different jquery version. Boostrap is currently at jquery-2.0.3 whereas my current Kendo version is at jquery-1.9.1.
What is the best practice when including these files in the master _Layout.cshtml file? Luckily, Bootstrap 3 is backwards compatible down to jquery-1.9.0. Will the new responsive version ship with a newer jquery version?

If I have a parent menu item which has a child menu item that points to an action, the action has an access control that is the user needs to have certain role. As Kendo documentation says, if the user doesn't have that role, the menu will automatically not show. My question is: I understand the child menu item will not show; what about the parent menu? Will it still show or not?

Thanks.

Hi,
I've been trying out the new Map widget and, whilst the map displays fine, I can't seem to get any markers to display on the map.

I've used the MVC Wrapper markup below (based on the GeoJSON example on your demos web page). I've tried to figure out the correct configuration  for adding a single test marker but, as I say, nothing shows up. Are markers supported in the beta version or can you see anything wrong in my markup?

@(Html.Kendo().Map()
.Name("map")
.Center(37.5, 110)
.Zoom(3.4)
.Layers(layers => {
layers.Add()
.Style(style => style.Fill(fill => fill.Opacity(0.7)))
.Type(MapLayerType.Shape)
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
.GeoJson()
.Read(read => read.Url(Url.Content("~/Content/Countries.json")))
);
})
.Events(events => events
.ShapeCreated("onShapeCreated")
.ShapeMouseEnter("onShapeMouseEnter")
.ShapeMouseLeave("onShapeMouseLeave")
.ShapeClick("onShapeClick")
)
.Markers(markers => {
markers.Add()
.Shape(MapMarkerShape.Circle)
.Position(37.1, 110.1)
.Size(20)
.Color("Red");
})
)

Thanks, Ian

I'm currently working on converting a Silverlight project into an MVC project.  
I'm working on a grid where the number of columns and the names of the columns are not known at design-time.  
Each column in the grid, other than the first one, should contain a checkbox.  I'd like each checkbox to be incell editable with a batch save option.
A screenshot of the current Silverlight version is attached.

I'm having a lot of difficulty getting this to work.  I tried a few different ways by using examples found in this forum.  
http://www.kendoui.com/forums/kendo-ui-complete-for-asp-net-mvc/grid/kendo-mvc-grid---data-binding-to-dynamic-object-model.aspx

So, my question is, is there a way to make a grid truly dynamic that also works with batch/incell editing?

Thanks.

I'm trying to filter a Kendo Grid for sales between a start date and end date but have been unable to do so with filter.push gt and lt.  Any help would be appreciated.

            var dFrom, dTo;
            var dateCriteria = $("#searchCustomerOrder").val();
            var dateFrom = new Date(0);
            var dateTo = new Date(0);
            var pos = dateCriteria.indexOf("-");
            if (pos > -1)
            {
                dFrom = searchCustomerOrder.substring(0, pos);
                dTo = searchCustomerOrder.substring(pos + 1);
                if (dFrom && dTo)
                {
                    dateFrom = new Date(dFrom);
                    var secs = dateFrom.getSeconds();
                    if (secs == 0) {
                        var milli = dateFrom.getMilliseconds();
                        milli = milli - 1;
                        dateFrom.setMilliseconds(milli);
                    }

                    dateTo = new Date(dTo);
                    secs = dateTo.getSeconds();
                    if (secs == 0) {
                        milli = dateTo.getMilliseconds();
                        milli = milli + 86399999;
                        dateTo.setMilliseconds(milli);
                    }                  
                    if (!isNaN( dateFrom.getTime()) && !isNaN( dateTo.getTime()))
                    {
                        $datefrom = dateFrom;
                        $dateTo = dateTo;
                        $filter.push(
                            { field: "OrderDate", operator: "gt", value: $datefrom });
                        $filter.push(
                            { field: "OrderDate", operator: "lt", value: $dateTo });
                    }

            }
