[Solved] column menu fails on second try if columns has a ' field: "" '

[Morten]

Dear support

if there is a field: "" in the columns options the column menu will fail (not close or re-show) once shown on any of the other columns.

Please see this http://dojo.telerik.com/oJeqet

Hello, Morten,

Thank you for the provided example.

The issue occurs because setting the empty string to the field property is not meeting the field requirements:

https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/grid#configuration-columns.field

"The field name should be a valid Javascript identifier and should contain no spaces, no special characters, and the first character should be a letter."

If the column does not have a field bound to it, the field property could be omitted.

Regards,

Thanks Stefan,

I see, however, maybe a simple isnullorempty check could be squeezed in :-)

Best regards
