Dynamic Columns Issue

[Michael]

I have a problem with the grid in that when columns are being added dynamically if the column that is being added is beyond the right side of the view-able right edge of the grid the column does not appear added when scrolled to the right.It takes a refresh to do this. This behavior should not exist ideally. When the column is added I want it view-able. As I recall, you have to add another column so the column that was not view-able is pushed to the left now in the view-able area. How do we solve this problem?

Hello Michael,

Thank you for considering Kendo UI.

To achieve the desired behavior, you can add the new column to the columns array with its width specified, so that the total width of the Kendo UI Grid can be calculated correctly. Then use the setOptions method and pass it the modified columns array.

Please, check out this dojo for a sample implementation of the steps, described above.

I hope this helps.

Your code is not working for me. I have attached the file for the code. Tell me what to do with what i have to make this work. Also, I am using an older Kendo version possibly. But whatever, I just need it to work with my existing Kendo version. The version is 2012.3.1114.340 for Kendo.Mvc. I am going to use the latest version and upgrade but this needs to be corrected with the code I have attached.
