HelperResult in template column

[Joseph]

Is it possible to display a helper in a template like this? I'm getting errors.  Maybe I'm not formatting it correctly?

 

columns.Template(template => RenderCustomerActions(template.CustomerID, template.HasMoveHistory));

 @helper RenderCustomerActions(int customerID, bool hasMoveHistory)
{
    <button type='button' id='openCustomerEditButton' title='Edit Customer' onclick='openCustomerEditWindow(@customerID, false, this);' class='k-button k-button-icon' data-toggle='tooltip'><span class='k-icon k-edit'></span></button>
    <button type='button' title='Delete Customer' onclick='deleteCustomer(@customerID, @hasMoveHistory);' class='k-button k-button-icon' data-toggle='tooltip'><span class='k-icon k-delete'></span></button>
    <div class="btn-group">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown"><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></button>
        <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
            <li><a onclick="openCustomerPaymentAddWindow(@customerID);">Add Payment</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>
}

 

I've also tried this the dropdown menu will show but it wont expand:

 

  columns.Template(@<text></text>).ClientTemplate("<button type='button' id='openCustomerEditButton' title='Edit Customer' onclick='openCustomerEditWindow(#=CustomerID#, false, this);' class='k-button k-button-icon' data-toggle='tooltip'><span class='k-icon k-edit'></span></button>" +
            "<button type='button' title='Delete Customer' onclick='deleteCustomer(#=CustomerID#, #=HasMoveHistory#);' class='k-button k-button-icon' data-toggle='tooltip'><span class='k-icon k-delete'></span></button>" +
            "<div class='btn-group'>" +
            "<button type='button' class='btn btn-primary btn-xs dropdown-toggle' data-toggle='dropdown'><i class='fa fa-caret-down'></i></button>" +
            "<ul class='dropdown-menu' role='menu'>" +
            "<li><a onclick='openCustomerPaymentAddWindow(#=CustomerID#);'>Add Payment</a></li>" +
            "</ul>" +
            "</div>").Title("").Width(100);

Hello Joseph,

> Is it possible to display a helper in a template like this?
No, this functionality is not supported at this time.

> I've also tried this the dropdown menu will show but it wont expand:
Do you initialize the drop-down menus after the Grid items have been loaded?

.Events(ev => ev.DataBound("onDataBound"))

function onDataBound(e) {
    e.sender.element.find('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
}

If this suggestion does not help, please provide a runnable sample project that shows the problem.

Yes, on my databound event on my grid I have:

  $(function () {
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()
})

 and the dropdown doesn't render in the grid.

I also tried

e.sender.element.find('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()

Still not working though
