    Is there anyway to provide default grouping when the grid is rendered on the view? For example, in the grid below, I want to group by Type, by default. Thanks.

    @(Html.Kendo().Grid<SomeModel>()
            .Name("Grid")
            .Columns(columns =>
            {  
                columns.Bound(p => p.TYPE).Title("Type");          
                columns.Bound(p => p.NAME).Title("Name");
                columns.Bound(p => p.CITY).Title("City");
            })        
            .Sortable()
            .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
                    .Ajax()
                    .PageSize(100)
                    .Read(read => read.Action("GetInfo", "Summary"))
            )
    .Groupable (// group by first column)

    Nowadays you configure it using the datasource, for example

    .DataSource(ds => ds.Ajax().Group(g => g.Add(c => c.Name)))

    Hello Victor 

    I would like to display only the value when default grouping is enabled. Instead of displaying the column name and its corresponding value i would like to have only value to be display. In the attached file you can see Description and Facility Name are displayed on all groups, i would like to have only value without Description and Facility Name.

    Thanks

    Raj

    Hello Raj,

    You can use the ClientGroupHeaderTemplate("#: value #") in the respective columns configurations, e.g.:


    ClientGroupHeaderTemplate(System.String)
     
    Sets the client group template for the column.
     
    Parameters
     
    value System.String
     
    The template

    @(Html.Kendo().Grid<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.CustomerViewModel>()
            .Name("grid")
            .Columns(columns =>
            {
                columns.Bound(c => c.ContactName)
                    .ClientGroupHeaderTemplate("#: value #")
                  .Width(240);
                columns.Bound(c => c.ContactTitle).ClientGroupHeaderTemplate("#: value #");
                ...        })
            ...
            .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
                .Ajax()
                .Group(g => g.Add(c => c.ContactName))
                .Read(read => read.Action("Customers_Read", "Grid"))
                .PageSize(20)
            )
        )

    You can find more information about the Grid columns.groupHeaderTemplate and the available field references inside the template in the following API reference:

    http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/grid#configuration-columns.groupHeaderTemplate

    I hope this helps.

    On a side note, this thread is rather outdated, and in general I can suggest starting a new one in such cases, so that all information in the subsequent discussion will be up-to-date, and will be relevant to the current Kendo UI version. Thank you in advance.
