Implementing Vertical Grids

[Farzana]

I need to implement vertical grids using kendo which is tied to the data models retrieved through a service call on DataSource read. In other words, the columns need to be displayed as rows and when I do an Add Record it should add a new column to the flipped or vertical grid and sync it with the server. How can I achieve that using Kendo Grid? I am using the angular implementation of Kendo.

Hello Farzana,

I am afraid this scenario is not supported by the Kendo UI Grid. You can achieve similar results by transposing the data either on the server or on the client (using the DataSource schema.parse function).

Would you have an example which implements the above suggestion? The vertical grid should still be able to handle the Adds/Updates (e.g. it should display a new column instead of a row on Add) and sync up with the backend datasource.

Hi,

While transposing the data can be achieved, displaying a new column on Add is something that would require significant modifications of the Grid's codebase. Currently we do not have an example matching your criteria.
