Grid with popup edit and dropdown

[Drew Auman]

Hello,
here's the part of the code from the template...

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(model => model.EmailType)

          .Name("EmailType")

          .BindTo(Enum.GetNames(typeof (EmailTypeEnum)).ToList())

                 )

When the popup is shown from an edit command, the value that is selected does not show in the grid after I click "Update". I can see the orange indicator that the fields is being edited in the grid, but the value is not shown.
If I do need to use a datasource object, can I use emuns as the underlying data type? If so please show an example.

Thanks

Hello Drew,

Recently we created a code library project which shows how to use Enumerations with Ajax editable Grid.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the response. The solution I'm developing requires a popup and not using batch editing (In grid editing). Are there any samples with this type of implementation?

Hello Drew,

Basically there should not be any difference. What exactly did you tried? I changed to code from the code library index view to the following and it seems to be working fine:

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<EnumerationEditing.Models.Product>()
    .Name("Grid")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(p => p.ID);
        columns.Bound(p => p.Name);
        columns.Bound(p => p.Category);
        columns.Command(p => p.Edit());
    })
    //.ToolBar(toolbar =>
    //{
    //    toolbar.Create();
    //    toolbar.Save();
    //})
    .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp))
    .Pageable()
    .Sortable()
    .Filterable()
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Batch(true)
        .ServerOperation(false)
        .Model(model =>
            {
                model.Id(p => p.ID);
                model.Field(p => p.ID).Editable(false);
            })
        .Read("Read", "Home")
        .Create("Create", "Home")
        .Update("Update", "Home")
    )
)

Let me know if further questions arise.
