ColumnMenu Undefined Columns

[Matteo]

Hi,
I'm using ASP.NET MVC Wrapper for KendoUI in my project.
I saw Grid ColumnMenu and I want to use it and it works everything but the menu lists 3 undefined columns. My grid has 3 columns without model binding and with empty title but I set this

.IncludeInMenu(false)

but nothing changes. So I've tried to comment those columns but nothing changes again.
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks,
Matteo.

Hello Matteo,

What version of the framework do you use? I tried on my side (the latest internal build) the following setup:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.Order>()
    .Name("Grid")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(o => o.OrderID);
        columns.Bound(o => o.ShipCountry);
        columns.Bound(o => o.ShipName);
        columns.Template(@<text></text>).ClientTemplate("test");
        columns.Bound(o => o.ShipAddress).Filterable(false);
    })
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Read(read => read.Action("ColumnMenu_Read", "Grid"))
     )
    .Pageable()
    .Filterable()
    .Sortable()
    .ColumnMenu()
)

And The column is not displayed at the column menu until I specify a title. Could you try to update to the latest version (or latest internal build) and see if the problem persists?

Hi Petur,
My KendoUI version is "2013.1.319.340".
My grid code is this:

Html.Kendo().Grid(Model).Name("Grid")
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource.Ajax().Read(read => read.Action("", "").Data("")).Model(model => model.Id(m => m.ID)).PageSize(50).Events(events => events.RequestStart("")))
.Columns(columns =>
{
    columns.Template(o => "").ClientTemplate("").HtmlAttributes(new { @style = "white-space: nowrap;" }).Width(100).IncludeInMenu(false);

    columns.Template(o => "").Width(36).HeaderTemplate(h => "").HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:center" }).ClientTemplate("").IncludeInMenu(false);

    columns.Template(o => "").Width(36).HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:center" }).HeaderTemplate("").ClientTemplate("").IncludeInMenu(false);

    Html.OrderedColumns(columns);
})
.Selectable()
.Scrollable(scrolling => scrolling.Enabled(true).Height(300))
.Resizable(resizing => resizing.Columns(true))
.Reorderable(reorderable => reorderable.Columns(true))
.ColumnMenu()
.Sortable(sorting => sorting.Enabled(true).SortMode(GridSortMode.SingleColumn).AllowUnsort(true))
.Pageable(pageable => pageable.Enabled(true).Messages(t => t.Display("{0:d0} - {1:d0} of {2:d0} items")))
.Filterable(filtering => filtering.Enabled(false))
.Events(e => e.DataBound("").ColumnResize("").ColumnHide("").ColumnShow("").ColumnReorder(""))

The code "Html.OrderedColumns(columns);" renders the columns with Bound sorted by user settings. If I comment the 3 columns set in grid that you can see here undefined columns appears anyway.

Matteo

Hello Matteo,

I am not able to reproduce such behavior. Could you please check the attached project and modify it in a way it reproduces the case, so we can search for a solution?
