Hi,

I have several categories. The series value for some of the categories can be a lot larger than the values for other series.
Example:

In the case of a pie chart, this results in the "bar" slice being very small. The problem is that I want to capture series click events. But, these small slices are unusable in that way.

Is there a way to configure bar, pie and similar charts to have these series with small values always take up some minimum space?

I have 2 grids on my cshtml. The 'child' is inside a kend-tmpl template.
The nested grid is editable in a popup using an editor template.

Im wondering how do I pass the key of nested grid to the editor template?

The editor template's datasource action is dependent upon the parent key. When editing I can get the key, but only when adding new I am stuck.

Ive looked at 2 ways of doing this. one is with a field default.value on the grid's datasource.Model.Field. Two is on the grid edit event I assign the model's field the value after looking it up.

Option 1: The default value gets passed through but it seems I can only use simple types, hard coded like integers.
model.Field(i => i.PersonID).DefaultValue(222); THIS WORKS
model.Field(i => i.PersonID).DefaultValue("#=PersonKey#"); THIS fails on convert string to int.
model.Field(i => i.PersonID).DefaultValue(new { PersonID = "#=PersonKey#"  }); This fails on conversion from anon type


model.Field(i => i.PersonID).DefaultValue("#=PersonKey#");


Option 2: The grid edit javascript function hits and I want to execute this code before the editor template's data.read action is called.
function onEditRequest(e) {   
    var PersonID = $("#PersonID").val();
    //check if record is new
    if (e.model.isNew()) {
        //set the default value for StateID
        e.model.set("PersonID", PersonID);
    }
}
The problem is that this function above is not called before the editor template's function (dropdown list datasource .read action)
In fact when debugging in each function it will go back and forth (almost line by line) so there is no guarantee the edit is called before the datasource read (which requires the key)

Any ideas?

Hi 

I am trying to display a remote XML data in a bar chart. Below is my code. 



My XML is as below,



When I run it, an error comes saying opportunitycount is not defined. 

When I use the same data in a json (without the schema section above), it works. 

Is there a way to directly bind XML elements in series section? 

Thanks in advance,
Ishan

PS: I personally think your example should cover XML data binding as well. Almost all examples are based on JSON.

 I have a tree  like:
    
   - foo
        bar

when I selected the bar, I want to reset the name. How can i do .thanks

Hi Experts,

I have found that in the demo of MultiSelect controller, when loading data, can show a little loading icon in the controller. I want to know if there are 2 APIs that I can invoke to show loading and close loading. Because I implement the data request with ajax in the page, after this ajax finish I will fill data in the MultiSelect controller, but during the ajax request data, I want the MultiSelect controller show loading.

Hello

I was trying evaluate the scheduler widget in appbuilder and found very interesting thing. I created three views and the third view contains the scheduler div which got initialized on data-init event of that view.

Everything worked very well before I tried to dig deeper and wanted to do something on click of save button under the event view. On save I tried to navigate to another view  which i successfully able to but when i come back again to scheduler, I found everything got freeze in scheduler and scheduler becomes unselectable.

I was thinking to reinitialize scheduler whenever I navigate to that view. Please let me know the best possible solution in this case.

I have created a sample project. Please have a look at the following URL:

http://trykendoui.telerik.com/ataX

In order to reproduce the issue, open Drawer, click scheduler, navigate to event details, there is one button " Go to Home" click that and again try to come back on scheduler using drawer menu.

Hi, 

I have following code,

$("#activities").kendoScheduler({
date: new Date("2014/5/19"),
startTime: new Date("2014/5/19 00:00 AM"),
endTime: new Date("2014/5/19 08:00 PM"),
views: [
{ type: "day", selected: true },
"week",
"month"
],
editable: false,
timezone: "Etc/UTC",
dataSource: {
batch: true,
transport: {
read: {
type: 'POST',
contentType: "text/xml",
url: "https:///xxx:8443/xxx/rest/xxxapp/api/xxxGetActivities",
processData: false,
dataType: "xml",
headers: { 'X-xxx-Token': '8430694659957936307' }
},
parameterMap: function() {
return '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><xxxGetActivitiesRequest xmlns="http://www.xxx.net/xxx/1.0"><RecordLimit>30</RecordLimit><RequestFields><Activities><Activity><ActivityNo/><AccountName/><AccountNumber/><ContactFullName/><ContactName/><ContactNameSequence/><ActivitySubject/><ActivityPriority/><ActivityPriorityCode/><ActivityText1/><ActivityText2/><ActivityText3/><ActivityStatus/><ActivityStatusCode/><ActionDate/><ActionTime/><ActionDateTime/><EndDate/><Location/><ActivityResolution/><ActivityResolutionCode/><ActivityType/><ActivityTypeCode/><LeadOpportunityNo/><LeadOpportunityTypeCode/><LeadOpportunityDetails/></Activity></Activities></RequestFields><Filters><ActivityStatusCode><Like>%</Like><NotLike>F</NotLike><NotLike>C</NotLike></ActivityStatusCode><ActionDate><Range><From>D-30</From><To>D+30</To></Range></ActionDate></Filters></xxxGetActivitiesRequest>'
}
},
schema: {
model: {
id: "activityNo",
fields: {
activityNo: { from: "ActivityNo", type: "number" },
title: { from: "ActivitySubject", defaultValue: "No title", validation: { required: true } },
start: { type: "date", from: "ActionDate" , format: "{0:dd-MMM-yyyy}"},
end: { type: "date", from: "EndDate", format: "{0:dd-MMM-yyyy}" },
atendees: { from: "ContactFullName", nullable: true },
startTimezone: { from: "StartTimezone",nullable: true  },
endTimezone: { from: "EndTimezone",nullable: true  },
description: { from: "Description",nullable: true  },
recurrenceId: { from: "RecurrenceID",nullable: true  },
recurrenceRule: { from: "RecurrenceRule",nullable: true  },
recurrenceException: { from: "RecurrenceException",nullable: true  },
roomId: { from: "RoomID", nullable: true },
isAllDay: { type: "boolean", from: "IsAllDay" , nullable: true }
}
}
}
}
}); 


Even though I can see the call is made to the web service and correct data is downloaded, no activities are not displayed in the scheduler as I expect. Few questions,

1. In the service I don't have all the schema models. So I have put dummy from fields with nullable true. is that correct
2. Dates are passed back from the web service in dd-MMM-yyyy format (ex: 14-May-2014). How can I map it to underlying dates in Kendo (is it automatically done?). I am not talking about visual aspects here but background mapping. 
3. Is there anything else wrong in my code? 


You help is highly appreciated.

Is there a demo showing the exact same functionality at this link http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/remote-data.html 
using JSON instead of ODATA?

I would like to implement this in ASP.NET MVC 3, WCF, and EF 4.3 using JSON

Hi,

I have a single data source but I need to show the same data on different views, with custom filters, so the data will be presented according to my needs. 

Can you suggest a simple way to achieve that?

Thanks

Hi Experts,

I implement my page using MultiSelect controller, I request the data by using ajax request. The data item number is too large, so I want to implement a filter on the client side

1. The total select options are 10000.
2. By default in MultiSelect controller show 500.
3. When type in MultiSelect input controller, can dynamic filter in the 10000 options and show at most 500 in the options.

There is no example to do this, but there is a similar example to do filter on server side. Can you show me a example?
