In MVC Custom Command Column, Name is required

[Andy]

So through a bunch of trial and error yesterday I made the determination that the Name method is apparently required.  If the TreeListCustomCommandBuilder.Name method isn't used, the data is simply not displayed.  

 

There are no clues that this field is required for the TreeList to function correctly and the API, found on page http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/aspnet-mvc/Kendo.Mvc.UI.Fluent/TreeListColumnCommandBuilder, doesn't indicate this at all.  

 Since debugging the MVC razor implementation is a pain, it would be helpful if the documentation would be corrected to indicate that it is required and if an exception would be thrown when that method isn't called.

Thanks.

Hello Andy,

Thank you for noticing this. Indeed at the moment it is not clear that the name is mandatory. We will update the documentation and the Visual Studio intellisense.

Thank you very much Andy!

I was searching why my custom command button was not working and found your comment. 1 year and 4 months after your comment, the documentation still doesn't mention that the Name() method is required.

Thanks
