Hi.

 I am trying to build a kendo grid with a custom editor. My grid has 2 checkboxes that have custom designs. I was able to create a template to handle the custom checkboxes. However, I am having difficulty with having that same custom design working in the edit mode. I have posted below my code which includes how I intended the custom checkboxes to be built: 

<div id="grid" class="settings-grid patient-settings"
               data-columns='[{title: "", width: "15px", attributes: {"class": "indent-cell"}},
               
               {field: "select", title: "select", width: "40px", template: "#if (select) { # <div class=\"checkbox\"><label class=\"check-label\"><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"check\" class=\"check\" checked=\"true\" disabled=\"true\"/> <span></span></label></div> # } else { # <div class=\"checkbox\"><label class=\"check-label\"><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"check\" class=\"check\"  disabled=\"true\"/> <span></span></label></div> # } #"}, 
                                         
               {field: "description", title: "Description", attributes: {"class": "desc"}},
                                         
               {field: "active", title: "Active", width: "63px",  template: "# if (active) { # <span class=\"icon_check\"></span> # } #"},
                                         
               {command: [ { name: "edit", text: {edit:"", update:"", cancel:""}}, {name: "destroy", text: "" }], title: "Actions", width: "15%"}]'>
 
 <script type="text/javascript">
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
            data: [
                
                    id: 1,
                    select: 0, 
                    description: "Option text goes and so forth ...",
                    active: 0
                }, {
                    id: 2,
                    select: 1,
                    description: "Option text goes right here and so forth ...",
                    active: 1
                }, {
                    id: 3, 
                    select: 1,
                    description: "Option text goes right here ...",
                    active: 1
                }, {
                    id: 4,
                    select: 1,
                    description: "Option text goes here ...",
                    active: 1
                }
            ],
            pageSize: 7,
            schema: {
                model: {
                    id: "id",
                    fields: {
                        select: {
                            type: "boolean",
                            editable: true,
                            nullable: false
                        },
                        description: {
                            type: "string",
                            editable: true ,
                            nullable: false
                        },
                        active: {
                            type: "boolean",
                            editable: true ,
                            nullable: false
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        });
     
    // Create an observable object.
    var vm = kendo.observable({
        settings: dataSource
    });
 
    kendo.bind($("#grid"), vm);
</script>

Hello George,

 

I would suggest to check this demo in our CodeLibrary which demonstrates how to create a template column which displays checkboxes for a boolean value and how to change the underlying model with a single click.

This has been a little help. I am also trying to use the custom edit method. However, when going into edit mode, the checkboxes are not ticked even though the property is set to true. I have created a dojo so you can see. I cannot seem to understand why this is happening.

Hello George,

 

Thanks for the Dojo!

 

You need to make sure that the checkbox is added after the Grid is fully rendered, you can use a simple timeout for that. Please check the following example:

Getting close. However, i'm noticing my code and the code in the dojo is not setting the change and updating the data source-- meaning...after confirming the change, and going back to edit it, it looks like things resorted back. 

 

Please advise!

Hello George,

You do not have any transport settings defined in your dataSource, so the data is persisted. I would suggest you to check the following how-to article that shows how to implement CRUD operations with local data:
