CurrencyTextBoxFor Read only issue

[PAUL]

Seems so simple. Would like to find a quick solution but never can. I have a autocomplete set to read only... no problem.

@Html.Kendo().AutoCompleteFor(model => model.CID).Name("CID").HtmlAttributes(new { @readonly = "readonly" })

Now I want to make CurrencyTextBoxFor read only. PROBLEM. Why is every widget different on basic attributes? Here is the code:

@Html.Kendo().CurrencyTextBoxFor(model => model.BudgetSpent).Name("BudgetSpent").HtmlAttributes(new { @readonly = "readonly" })

It doesn't work. Can't find it in documentation and have to move on to the next Kendo problem for MVC

Please help or point me to where I can find a solution to basic features like this.

Thanks

and after further investigation

@Html.Kendo().CurrencyTextBoxFor(model => model.AvailableBudget).Name(

 

"AvailableBudget").Spinners(false).HtmlAttributes(new { @readonly = "readonly" })


The text box itself is set to read only but the widget overlay is a separate issue...

Hello PAUL,

 
Could you please elaborate more on the "but the widget overlay is a separate issue...". What is the required behavior? After you make the input readonly, it can be focused, but not modified.

The required behavior is for the display to be read only. The problem is that there is a spinner on the number textboxes (which is a separate object) that can increment the display. So even though you could not type into the text box you could still click the up or down arrow and that would change the value in the textbox....therefore not read only.

The default value for the Spinners is true so setting it to false removed them and problem solved...

Sorry new to Kendo and just trying to get around...

Thanks
