Can the Notification be positioned within a given container with appendTo

Hi,

I have a series of tabs in my interface, and notifications belong in each.
So for this, I really need to insert my notification into the DOM of the TAB (which has it's own HTML content) - in order to show it "within that area"

Is this what the "appendTo" method is supposed to be used for?
I realize it says "Defines the element to which the notifications will be appended or prepended"
But why would you use it?

I'm asking because I cannot seem to get appendTo working, when I use it, my notification doesn't appear at all, and I just need a sanity check as to whether I should be bothering to use this to "position" the notification in the first place.

Validation pattern wrong

validation: {
pattern: {
value: "^\d+([ ](SS|FS|SF|FF))?([+]\d+)?([(]\d+[)])?[*]?$",
......

this is my string value 1 SS+1(1)*

Why it is wrong ????

in console : /^\d+([ ](SS|FS|SF|FF))?([+]\d+)?([(]\d+[)])?[*]?$/.test( '1 SS+1(1)*' ) that is true .
also I am testing it on web service https://regex101.com/#javascript - that is also true

Treeview: ways to store HierarchicalDataSource of a remote treeview

I wonder how people are storing the treeview in the database (table's, structure) and what queries they use for the 'crud' actions.

Cheers!

Treeview adding a node no sync is happening to remote transport

Situation:
Treeview with a 'remote' HierarchicalDataSource and autosync set to true.
Transport used: read/update/create/destroy

When adding a node it shows up in the treeview but no remote call (create you would expect) is made even after manually calling sync on the datasource.

Do I miss a step here ?

Another issue is when drag and drop a item in the treeview, it's calling the destroy transport. Is that normal ?

Cheers.

Treeview remote CRUD - update - php backend

Hello,

Say we have a treeview with a structure like:

- Main folder
- option 1
- option 2

What does Kendoui expect back with an remote update call when we update the text 'main folder' name to 'my folder' ?
All 3 nodes / only the main folder node or something else ?

Same question for updating option 1: all 3 nodes or only the updated node ?

Would also be nice to know this for create and delete as well. A php backend example for crud would be great.

Initial values serialization problem using wrapper

Hi,
I've come accross a very strange behavior of multiselect wrapper in a certain situation. I'm either not using the control properly or maybe it could be a wrapper bug.
The model contains two properties:
- ItemIds (to be Posted back on submit)
- Items (contains complete objects, with all properties for presenting like Code, Name and Id)

The initially preselected Model.Items are directly put into the code on the server, rest of items user can select is loaded via AJAX.

@(Html.Kendo().MultiSelectFor(x => x.ItemIds)

.DataValueField("Id")

.TagTemplate("#:data.Code# - #:data.Name#")

.ItemTemplate("#:data.Code# - #:data.Name#")

.AutoBind(false)

.Value(Model.Items)

.DataSource(d => d.Read(r => r.Action("GetItems", "ItemService").Data("getAdditionalData"))

.ServerFiltering(true))

)

So, when the page is loaded, the MultiSelect contains some initially preselected items (properly serialized as objects in the javascript code), we can add some more, post them back. So far so good.

But - when we add some validation (no matter which control contains invalid data) and the ModelState in the controller becomes invalid, the javascript serialization of the .Value(Model.Items) doesn't serialize all object properties (like Code, Name and Id) but only the Id property. So there are no initially preselected items in the multiselect.
I'm 100% sure the Model.Items contains all the information in both situations - no matter if the model state is valid and invalid.

I've also a workaround for this problem. Do not use the wrapper - use the javascript and serialize the Model.Items manualy like this:

01.$(selector).kendoMultiSelect({

02. "dataSource": {

03. "transport": {

04. "read": {

05. "url": "/ItemService/GetItems",

06. "data": getAdditionalData

07. },

08. "prefix": ""

09. },

10. "serverFiltering": true,

11. "filter": [],

12. "schema": { "errors": "Errors" }

13. },

14. "itemTemplate": "#:data.Code# - #:data.Name#",

15. "tagTemplate": "#:data.Code# - #:data.Name#",

16. "autoBind": false,

17. "dataValueField": "Id",

18. "value": @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model.Items))

19. });

But this workaround complicates other things and I really would prefer to use the wrapper instead of this.

Thanks,

Ori

Text formatting doesn't work properly if I have a long message in the editor

Text formatting doesn't work properly if I have a long message in the editor.

Entered a long message. Tried formatting the text with option bold, italics and adding a hyperlink and then the editor starts failing with a lot of amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;nbsp; for example.

If i try to apply similar formatting with smaller text it works fine.

MVVM - Kendo's vs Knockout vs Angular

I am going to use kendo ui. From a clean start, what should I consider when choosing MVVM framework?
Is there any inherent advantages of one over the other?
Does it depend on my usage of kendo ui?
Will Telerik be more likely to fix any bugs in their own if I have any issues? Does that even matter?

Any help or guidance is appreciated! Thank you!
