[Solved] Reason for kendo.jquery passed to function in kendo.all.js Q3 2012?

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a reason for window.kendo.jquery being passed to functions instead of jquery.

This happens in the kendo.all.js file since Q3 2012.

Thank you.

decimal separator problem in grid column

I have application, which uses cs-CZ globalization. Everything is OK, but Kendo grid is not. Problem is in decimal separator in decimal columns. Grid calls my Action method and every sends "." instead of "," as decimal separator. There is my Action method:

ActionResult UpdateProjectEmployee([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Models.ProjectEmployee employee )
{
    if (employee != null & ModelState.IsValid)
   {
      ...

My Action method fails (ModelState.IsValid is false), because MVC is not able to create my model, beacuse of decimal separator is "." and Convert methods expect "," because I use cs-CZ globalization. I thing, it is a bug in kendo Grid! I resolved this by using FormCollection instead of my model:

ActionResult UpdateProjectEmployee([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, FormCollection data )
{
    CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo("en-US");
    Models.ProjectEmployee employee = new Models.ProjectEmployee();
   employee.TotalHours = Convert.ToDecimal( data["TotalHours"], ci );
...

But it is not so nice :(

Customizing the "Custom Editor"

First things first...
This example does not have the correct "code behind"
http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/editing-custom.html

I want to create a custom-editor popup.

Actually I'd like to create a custom-editor that shows up like the detail template does...

So two questions:

Where is a good example of creating a custom-editor (using Razor preferably)?
Is it possible to have the custom editor display as a detailed editable template "InLine"

Themes to match those for asp.net mvc extensions

I'd like to maintain same appearance for web apps built on asp.net mvc extensions when considering migrating to Kendo UI Web.

Is there any plan to make available the same set of themes for Kendo UI Web as existed in past for Telerik ASP.NET MVC extensions?

[Solved] Grid sorting / Filtering - doesn't work

I'm trying to recreate a data grid that I've got working with the old MVC extensions, with the Kendo UI MVC extensions, but the documentation is virtually non-existent. Looking at the example, I've managed to get data into a grid, but it doesn't sort or filter (I'm not sure about apging, as there's only a few records at present.

The view is:-

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<PLCV2.Models.PLCVUser>()

.Name("Grid")

.Columns(columns =>

{

columns.Bound(p => p.UserName);

columns.Bound(p => p.FullName);

columns.Bound(p => p.SystemAdmin);

columns.Bound(p => p.SystemUser);

})

.Pageable()

.Sortable()

.Scrollable()

.Filterable()

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.Read(read => read.Action("AjaxBinding", "UserMgmt"))

)

and the controller is:-

public ActionResult AjaxBinding([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)

{

Models.PLCVdBDataContext db = new Models.PLCVdBDataContext();

var query = from p in db.PLCVUsers

select p;

//query = query.OrderByDescending(c => c.UserName);

return Json(query.ToDataSourceResult(request),JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

}

How do I enable sorting and filtering?
Also, I had to add the AllowGet JsonRequestBehaviour, to get the grid to work. Your examples don't seem to require this - how?

Where is the documentation for the MVC extensions? I can only find a very brief (and very lacking!) migration overview, which fails to mention many of the server-side changes (no GridAction, the new DataSourceRequest etc..).

I'm keen to try out the new extensions, but without more documentation, it doesn't seem feasible.

how to refresh a huge grid if only few data have been changed

Hi everybody,

I am working on a grid which contains a lot of data (like 100 000 rows). I was wondering how I could refresh it in case of some data would be changed in the dataSource without reload the entire grid.

Is it possible? I have been searching for the answer in the documentation and other posts but have not found anything!

I really need to figure it out asap!!
any answer would be much appreciated
Thank you very much

Books (preferably available on Kindle) about Kendo UI

I have downloaded Kendo UI and viewed the tutorials and I have found the documentation but it's not easy to figure out. To be honest, the documentation is like Microsoft's - that is to say if you want to know whether to write a colon or a semicolon, it's brilliant. But nowhere does it even begin to explain how to start with Kendo. Has anyone written a book from the perspective of someone new to Kendo who wants to write a project using, say ASP.NET MVC4? And if so, can anyone recommend a good book.
