Column .Format("{0:#,0}") no longer working in a latest update

[Fillip]

When using the .NET MVC wrapper for our grids, we used to format our int columns like so:

columns.Bound(r => r.FileSize).Title("File Size")
                  .HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { @title = "File Size" })
                  .Format("{0:#,0}")
                  .Width(120);

When I upgraded from XX to XX, this no longer was working. I was able to use .Format("{0:n0}") and it worked fine. Kinda sad that this was depreciated seemingly unknowingly to developers. Did anyone else experience this break in code?

Also to note, our previous version of Kendo was 2015.1.425 and our upgraded version is 2016.1.412.

Hello Fillip,

 

I'm not able to re-create such issue locally. Here is a test page which uses the format in question. You can use the dropdownlist at the top, to switch to different versions. However, I'm getting the same result using any version.

Hi Rosen,

Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure if it matters, but I am initializing this grid via the .NET wrapper, not JS.     

Thanks for your time!

Hello Fillip,

 

There should be no difference if Grid is configured via the ASP.NET MVC wrapper or in JavaScript. As far as the Grid is using client-side rendering, the formatting is applied in the browser, thus the previous test page should be applicable. 

Could you please provide a small runnable test project which to demonstrate the issue you are observing. This will allow us to further investigate the case.
