GRID: Model not updating if dataItem is editable

[Luca]

Hello,

I'm having a problem updating the model in a Grid Editing with kendo AngularJS.

It looks like the model updates if the field in the schema is set to editable: false but it does not update when is editable: true

here is a DEMO with both inline and popup editing.

When selecting Detroit from the City, the Country should change to USA. It does not do that when the field Country has editable: true, but if you change that to editable: false the page works. The goal here is to have USA selected by default by still give the user the ability to change the Country manually.

Is there any way to make this work?

Hi, Luca,

Thank you for the provided dojo and details.

The recommended approach to modifying the underlying model programmatically, is to use the model.set() method, instead of directly assigning the value:

//$scope.editor.Country = e.dataItem.Country;
$scope.editor.set("Country", e.dataItem.Country);

Applying the above change should take care of the issue and allow you to update the value without setting "editable" to false.

Updated dojo:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello Georgi,

Thank you so much for your support!
I forgot about the set method. This works just fine.

Thanks
