We have a UI where we destroy and then recreate a kendoui grid, like:

grid.destroy();
grid.wrapper.empty();


Since going to the latest kendo, we get an error. These two fiddles show it working with 2013.3.1119, and failing with 2014.3.1314 (javascript error in console).

Is there something we're doing wrong, or is this a bug?

This fiddle works (kendoui 2013.3.1119):

This fiddle is broken (kenodui 2014.3.1314):

we are using kendo multiselect within a directive with some custom logic to enable support of very large lists, hence we have a backing object that stores the datasource list, and a backing model to store the selected items.When the user types into the multiselect and selects an item kendo code applies a filter to the datasource and we have mimicked this behavior to remove the fitler kendo applies like so:

dataSource.filter({});

In certain cases we need to persist the order in which the items were selected in the multiselect, the issue is that when the above code runs to apply the filter (when the user types into the multiselect and selects an item) in addition to filtering kendo applies a sort on the internal model of the datasource by default it looks like on the items property called 'Name'. In our case its sorting the int values.

Use case - Imagine you select these items in the multiselect in this sequence: 1 {Id:6, Name:John} 2 {Id:1, Name:Adam}.
the ng-model on the multiselect correctly shows [6, 1]

then user types into the multiselect and selects an item {Id: 10, Name: Steve}

then our code is called: dataSource.filter({}) as we grammatically add the selected items to the multiselect 

the ng-model on the multiselect is now [1 , 6, 10] // John and Adam have swapped places due to a sort that must have happened in the filter method

Does anyone know how to filter without having the datasource automatically sort so we can persist the order in which the items were selected? I have tried to use query rather than filter on the datasource with a sort object but my model is an array of int so is becomes complicated as I would have to change these objects in the ng-model...
ref to datasource query can be seen here: http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/data/datasource#query

thanks!

Hi there.

We are going to use Kendo UI for our new product GUI. We want to display a list of nodes using a Grid. Because node information changes over time, this Grid needs to be refreshed every ~5s to reflect the current cluster status. Using the DataSource push functionality, this works without "flickering" (this happens if you call read() on the DataSource every time). But unfortunately the selection of the nodes is lost on every update, which is not good for the usability. Is there any convenient way to store the selection before the push update and restore it afterwards?

This is our small DataSource (perhaps there's a way to improve it, too):

Thank you for your help.

Hi
  Apologies in advance as I suspect this is probably obvious, just not to me

Can you make the back button or href navigation (data-role="backbutton") miss out pages?

I have a collection of views

A->B->C1->D1
              |      |
            C2->D2

Here the user may go from View A to B, if they hit back they'll go back to A. Fine

They may go A->B->C1->C2->C1->C2, if they hit back they'll go back through the sequence again but I'd like them to go back to B, i.e. bypassing the C1->C2->C1 sequence, almost as though C1 and C2 were the same page

I can't go directly to B from C2 as they may not have come to C2 from B, they may have come from somewhere else

So Ideally there would be something which would let you navigate between to C2 and C1 without going into the history

I'm guessing you can do something in raw javascript with the history object to do this but I'm wondering what the 'kendo' way to do this is

thanks

I have a tree down layout with one parent having 31 direct children, which produces quite a wide layout. The problem is that I cannot view the entire diagram, even though I'm calling bringIntoView(diagram.shapes). Also, manually zooming with mouse scroll wheel doesn't allow me to zoom out enough to see the whole diagram.

Are there some limitations with zoom such that it is impossible to view the entirety of diagrams wider than a certain amount?

Thanks,
Gary

On kendoTreeList, the eventhandler databound fires between 2 and 4 times when one remote binding has been bound.
Could give me a workaround to know when a databinding are finally ended?

You can reestablish this action by edit your example: http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/treelist/remote-data-binding
Add for instance this line of code to the treelist: dataBound: function(e){ alert('data binded'); },

Thanks :o)

When enabling filtering is there any way to add additional operators to the various types strings, numbers, dates, booleans and provide custom filter function code.

e.g. string currently has the following

Is equal to
Is not equal to
Starts with 
Contains
Does not contain
Ends with

Can I add something along the lines of Sounds like option with a function which performs the actual soundex based comparison?

Hi I am using a kendo dropdownlist as a ClientTemplate for one of the grid columns. When I add a new item to the grid, make a selection from the dropdownlist, and then select Update, the value for the dropdown is null. Only after I refresh the page is the correct value displayed. Dropdown list is displaying correct values.

We are using .net MVC and DataSource WebAPI to bind to the models.

I have a form with both a submit and cancel button.  I am performing validation on multiple fields when they lose focus and when the form is submitted.  Is there anyway to bypass validation when the cancel button is clicked? 

I have a listview bound to a list of audits that a user must carry-out. When an audit is clicked in the list another listview is shown on page 2 with the details of the audit that need to be taken care of. Once a detail is selected from within that list there is a detail form on a third page. I use app.navigate to drill-down to the detail that needs to be address. The problem is that when I click the back button (standard back button as in examples) the app navigates to the initial page rather than the 2nd page.

I can't figure out how to address this problem.
