Editor in seperate view

[Chrys]

Is there a way to edit grid rows in a separate view. I need to accomplish this because the modal has too much information so it needs to be displayed in a separate view.

grid.bind("edit", function (e) {
                window.location = '@Url.Action("AddEditCoalition","Form",new{coalitionId=Model.CoalitionId})' + '&formId=' + e.model.Id;
});

The only problem is the modal shows up is there anyway to do this without the modal showing at all and it goes stratight to the seperate view?

Hello Chrys,

A more appropriate way to navigate to a separate view will be to use a custom command and to handle its click event in which to navigate to the other page:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Model>()
    .Name("Grid")
    .Columns(columns => {
        /*...*/
        columns.Command(command => command.Custom("Edit").Click("showEditForm"));
    })
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Read(/*..*/)
     )
)

<script type="text/javascript">
    function showEditForm(e) {
        e.preventDefault();

        var dataItem = this.dataItem($(e.currentTarget).closest("tr"));

        window.location.href = '@Url.Action("AddEditCoalition","Form",new{coalitionId=Model.CoalitionId})' + '&formId=' + dataItem.Id;
    }
</script>
