When defining filter in my views using the new helpers, the filter values come back null. Here is one example (I have few other very similar grids all producing the exact same result for me).

In this example, I am giving the filter a value coming from the ViewBag.StatusID, however hard-coding a specific value (1) produces the same null value.

View

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Mobooka.Models.Campaign>()
	.Name("CampaignsGrid")
	.Columns(columns =>
	{
		columns.Bound(o => o.CampaignID).Title("ID").Width(80);
		columns.Bound(o => o.Offer.OfferName).Title("Offer");
		columns.Bound(o => o.Offer.Advertiser.Company.CompanyName).Title("Advertiser").Width(180);
		columns.Bound(o => o.Status.StatusName).Title("Status").Width(100);
	})
	.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
		.Ajax()
		.Read(read => read.Action("GetCampaigns", "Home"))
		.Filter(filter => filter.Add(f => f.StatusID).Equals(ViewBag.StatusID))
		.PageSize(25)
		.ServerOperation(true)
	)
	.Filterable(filtering => filtering
		.Enabled(true)
	)
	.Pageable(paging => paging
		.Enabled(true)
		.Info(true)
		.PageSizes(false)
		.Refresh(true)
	)
	.Scrollable(scrolling => scrolling
		.Enabled(true)
		.Height(560)
		.Virtual(true)
	)
	.Sortable(sorting => sorting
		.Enabled(true)
		.AllowUnsort(true)
		.SortMode(GridSortMode.SingleColumn)
	)
)

Controller

public ActionResult Index()
{
	ViewBag.StatusID = (int)Enumerations.Status.Pending; 
	return View();
}
...
public JsonResult GetCampaigns([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)
{
	IEnumerable<Campaign> campaigns = db.Campaigns....;
	return new JsonNetResult(campaigns.ToDataSourceResult(request));
}

I need to show images in panelbar items but I'm having no luck.
Please can you show code to use the template property of a panelbar item ... I have the following to start with:-
.........
.ItemDataBound((item, product) =>

{ 
    item.Text = product.Player.FullName;
    item.Template .....
} 
.....

Thanx.

 

 

 

 

 

//item.Action("Index", "Player", new {id = product.Id});

item.

 

 

 

 

 

Selected = false;

item.

 

 

 

 

 

HtmlAttributes["id"] = product.Player.Id;

}));

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey I've been trying to get the value from a dropdownlist, and cant seem to get it working. Am I doing something wrong.
The dropdown displays normally and everything and i map the event fine, but once it fires i get this javascript error when it tries to get the value:

 "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'value' of undefined" Here is my code:

                @Html.LabelFor(m => m.Country)
                @(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(m => m.Country)
                  .Name("CountriesDropDown")
                  .DataTextField("Name")
                  .DataValueField("CountryID")
                  .DataSource(source =>
                  {
                    source.Read(read =>
                    {
                        read.Url("/WebUI/API/Countries/");
                     });
                   })
                  .Events(e => e.Change("CountryChange"))
                  )  

<script type="text/javascript">

    var CountriesList = $("#CountriesDropDown").data("kendoDropDownList");

    function CountryChange() 
    {
        alert(CountriesList.value());
    }
    
</script>

Thanks in advance!

Hello team;

Let's we want to build an application using Kendo UI MVC platform. This app needs to run om desktop and mobile.

My question is, what's to have the same desktop MVC controls for the Mobile counterpart, so we can use similar logic and controls, but different views for the devices.

Thanks!

Is there any way to format the pie chart legend items?  Meaning, instead of just listing the categories (e.g. Cars, Boats, Planes), is there a way to add additional data such as the value assoicated with each (e.g. 3 Cars, 5 Boats, 8 Planes).  I looked through the documentation but couldn't find a way.  However, it appears to be possible in your RadChart product via "LegendDisplayMode", so I'm hoping there's a way to do it in the Kendo version.  It seems like a very good feature to have.

Hi,
I have a tabstrip with two tabs and want to include a Kendo chart in the first tab. I can't work out whether it's possible to do this using the Kendo MVC helpers? If it is possible, does anybody have any example Razor code that explains how it can be done.

Thanks, IP

Hi,

We have been evaluating Kendo UI for Asp MVC (as a replacement for Telerik ASP MVC components) for a while and it certainly looks promising! The main question here is basically: when will a RC/RTM be available and is there a list of what will be supported/will have changed from the current beta?

Specifically we are using the the Grid component heavily and would really like to see some missing features.
* Toolbar templates (like http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/toolbar-template.html, in the end we would like to integrate it with a autocomplete/multi-column filter, will that be possible?)
* Multiple nested details templates. We ran into problems, but read in another thread that the functionality will be completely changed, so we stopped trying here. Will it be possible to ajax-load a full template from an action?
* Show/hide columns (context menu in Telerik ASP MVC)
* Binding to null values (as per uservoice request http://kendo.uservoice.com/forums/127393-kendo-ui-feedback/suggestions/2949884-fix-grid-binding-to-null-values) - REALLY important to be able to replace Telerik ASP MVC
* A new, user-friendly multisort (as per uservoice request here http://kendo.uservoice.com/forums/127393-kendo-ui-feedback/suggestions/2949890-fix-a-new-grid-multi-sort)

Also, the list component looks like a really nice addition, hopefully one that will be server-wrapped?

Finally, we hope globalization will be implemented in full and hope for some fully-fledged examples!


All in all though, Kendo UI looks real promising!

Kind regards
Victor Ström

when adding a grid through the html helper and setting the datasource as noted in the documentation:

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
            .Ajax() // Specify that the data source is of ajax type
            .Read(read => read.Action("Products_Read", "Home")) // Specify the action method and controller name
        )

there is no way to specify the html verb for the ajax call.  by default it seems to be a post, rather than a read, so if I use a rest based service, I get a failure, as it is trying to insert a record instead of retrieve a list of them.  is there a way to specify a Get?  (actually, shouldn't the grid ajax default to a get?  it seems to when I declare the grid using jquery, but not through the html helpers.)

I would have liked to have added this as a comment to hermann's thread but you don't appear to cater for that.
I would like to second everything that hermann said.
I used to have a Telerik subscription but I let it lapse because your documention was so unbelievably bad that I found it quicker to write things myself.
I have been waiting to see if the documention for KendoUI gets any better before I consider renewing my subscription but although it seems to have got a little better, you obviously still consider it to be a bore and only something to addressed months or even years afterwards.
I have tried for many hours to fight my way through what you laughably call Getting Started with Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC as well as other parts of your documentation but am still unable to get ANYTHING to work.
Could you please listen to what hermann has to say and make an effort to help him ( and myself) get as far as first base.
Thankyou.
