Hi,

can anyone show me how to use a template for the labels in a chart legend in Kendo for MVC? The fluent api allows for controlling font, color, position, etc, but the labels template is nowhere to be found.

Below is a piece of code taken from the DataViz demo, to illustrate what I mean.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi

I'm generating the graph dynamically based on loaded description and data.
The (simplified) code as follows:
Is there a better (dynamic) way to set chart type without having the if/switch block?
Besides Aggregate I have a lot of options to set for most (but not all) series. So I wouldn't need to copy the lines for every possible chart type. Is it possible in current solution to catch each series (created by e.g. .Area()) in a variable and conditionally set properties on it?
Would the current approach to build a "very dynamic" chart in a View recommended? Is it possible build it completely in an Action instead?
Yes, the question might be related to razor/htmlhelpers in general, still interested in recommended Kendo approach. Thanks.

Hi I have seen a similar post however I would like some clarification.
Desi: we have MVC.NET application which binds grid to model via Ajax binding.  When user submits the data and we refresh the page, we have a requirement to keep the user original selections (sorting, filtering, etc.).  You already posted that you do not support scenario like this "out of the box".  However I would like to know whether there is a way (some js method or control id or anything at all that would allow me to get to those selections before the page submitted via JavaScript.
Thanks.

Hi,

Kindly refer the below points and then suggest us to proceed further.

1. We have large database , our main criteria is to improve the performance of data binding in web.
2. As we have read about Kendo UI as client based, so we have doubts whether we can go for MVC Entity Framework with Kendo UI without using web service.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi all.

Currently, I have the following code in my project:
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.CPF, new { alt = "cpf", style = "width: 150px;" })

Now, I would like to transform it in a Kendo control with a mask like that: "000.000.000-00". How can I do that with Kendo?

Thanks.

Hello,

I followed every step like the mvc  examples to try to bind a list view.

My setup is as follows:       

The Controller:
 The Model:
The view:
This is practically the same as in the example.

But it doesn't display data. 

The resultset from "return Json(GetScans().ToDataSourceResult(request));" does contain the dataset.

What am I doing wrong here...!

Thanks,

Dear Wizards of the Realm,

New to MVC4 and to Kendo. So probably some misconceptions. Tried for a couple days. Need suggestions.

1. Started Visual Studio 2012 new project using Asp.net mvc 4 web app. Connected to existing database with edmx file. Put in a controller. All works great - retrieve, create, update, delete.
2. From Telerik menu, reconfigure to use KendoUI. Using 2012.2.710. (Separate note - if trying to upgrade to 2013.1.x.x - a breaking upgrade). Add an Admin and a Member area - routing seems to be working oK
3. Add Kendo Grid

            @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model).Name("KeysGrid")
            .Columns(columns =>
            {
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.ID).Hidden();
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.CreateStamp).Visible(false);
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.OwnerAccountsID).Visible(false);
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.ReplacedBy).Hidden();
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.Name).Width("20%");
                columns.Bound(curkey => curkey.Description).Width("60%");
                columns.Command(cmd =>
                {
                    cmd.Edit().HtmlAttributes(new { title = "edit this key" }).;
                    cmd.Destroy().HtmlAttributes(new { title = "delete this key" });
                })
                    .Width("20%")
                    .Title("Commands")
                    .Width(75);
            })
            .ToolBar(toolBar => toolBar.Template(@"
                <div>
                    <a onclick='createRow()' title='Create a new key' style='float:left;'> <img src='/Content/images/button_add_01.png' style='width:32px; height:32px; text-decoration:none; border:none;' /></a>
                    <a onclick='callHelp()' title='Help on keys' style='float:right;'><img src='/Content/images/button_info_01.png' style='width:32px; height:32px; text-decoration:none; border:none;' /></a>
                </div>
            "))
            .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp)
                .TemplateName("AddEditKey").Window(w => w.Title("Add / Edit Keys")))
            .Pageable(pages => pages.PageSizes(new int[] { 10, 20, 50 }))
            .Resizable(p => p.Columns(true))
            .Sortable()
            .Selectable()
            .Filterable()
            .Scrollable(p => p.Enabled(false))
            .Groupable(p => p.Enabled(false))
            .DataSource(datasource => datasource
                .Ajax()
                .Events(e => e.Error("error_handler")
                )
                .Create(c => c.Action("Create", "YFKey", new { area="Member", controller="YFKey", action="Create" }))
                .Update(c => c.Action("Edit", "YFKey", new { area="Member", controller="YFKey", action="Edit" }))
                .Destroy(c => c.Action("Delete", "YFKey", new { area="Member", controller="YFKey", action="Delete" }))
                )
            )
4. Now when go to index page, grid shows data from underlying database. I edit grid, popup comes up with proper fields, edit data, save - popup goes away and changed fields marked with little red triangle - changes to underlying DB not made.
5. In Chrome, hit F12, look at network, it's getting a 500 Internal Server Error. All data from edit form looks proper - just not happening. Any ideas?

Autogenerated controller from database methods include:
        [Authorize]
        public ActionResult Edit(long id = 0)
        {
            YFKey yfkey = db.YFKeys.Find(id);
            if (yfkey == null)
            {
                return HttpNotFound();
            }
            return View(yfkey);
        }

        //
        // POST: /Member/YFKey/Edit/5

        [HttpPost]
        [ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
        public ActionResult Edit(YFKey yfkey)
        {
            if (ModelState.IsValid)
            {
                db.Entry(yfkey).State = EntityState.Modified;
                db.SaveChanges();
                return RedirectToAction("Index");
            }
            return View(yfkey);
        }

Note that at the same time, the auto created forms from the database first edmx file still work, and even on the same form.

Maybe obvious to me someday, but not today.
Thanks.

Hi,

how do i add a custom column to a child grid containing a Action Link with the ID of the current child row entity?

here is a example of the hierarchical grid:
The Question is: How can the Id of the ChildModelEntity be resolved and passed into the ActionLinkMethod?  "#=Id#" returns the Id of the parent model.

Thanks in advance for answers!

Morning folks!

What I'm trying to do is...when I change the item of the dropdownlist, I'll need to REload the TreeView with the selectedValue of the dropDownList.

In my case, as I'm a new kendoui user, I'm not going on the right track, for sure.

Any ideas?

Here's my JS dumb script...hope you can help me!
