I've tried to add a custom ValueTemplate to my DropDownList like it is described in the Kendo demo-section "Customizing Templates" -
http://demos.kendoui.com/web/dropdownlist/template.html

It seems that in the current release 2013.3.1119.340 the DropDownList-property ValueTemplate is missing. How do I accomplish a custom valueTemplate without this property? I'm using MVC Razor.

Kendo chart does not handle very small values

see fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/A2URt/

the kendo chart does not seem to handle very small values well. We included two examples one with very small values, the other one with a bit larger values. The edge case seems to lie in values 1.0e-7.

Can somebody help, explain etc?

Kind regards Dennis

Cancel checkbox parent click

Hello,
I have a need to cancel a checkbox check if the user has reached a limit. Unfortunately, simply calling preventDefault isn't working when the checked item is a parent. So I whipped up a little jQuery to handle this for me --

$("#treeview").on("click", ":checkbox", function (e) {

var treeView = $("#treeview").data("kendoTreeView");

origChecked = listChecked;

listChecked = [];

checkedNodeIds(treeView.dataSource.view(), listChecked);

if (searchLimited && listChecked.length > searchLimit) {

var newChecked = $(listChecked).not(origChecked).get();

$.each(newChecked, function (index, value) {

var item = treeView.dataSource.get(value);

item.set("checked", false);

});

e.preventDefault();

listChecked = origChecked;

}

});

// function that gathers IDs of checked nodes

function checkedNodeIds(nodes, checkedNodes) {

for (var i = 0; i < nodes.length; i++) {

if (nodes[i].checked) {

if (nodes[i].id != "0") {

checkedNodes.push(nodes[i].id);

}

if (nodes[i].hasChildren) {

checkedNodeIds(nodes[i].children.view(), checkedNodes);

}

I can see this works fine. If I put a breakpoint at the end, the treeview looks perfect. However, it appears that some other internal kendo event is firing after and resetting the items to a checked state. As I understood things, calling the set method should have been updating the underlying data for the treeview, so I didn't expect my changes to be overwritten... What am I missing?

Thanks,
Phil

Format number to IP number

Hi

I am trying to format number to IP format like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.001.001

$("#ip4").kendoNumericTextBox({
format: "IP ###.###.###.###", /* works only if you input exact 12 numbers, works only if dot is thousand separator */
decimals: 0
});

This is not the right way!
I was searching kendo forum for text mask format but no luck. Does defining mask exists in kendo ?

Thx

MVVM and Mobile Widget Initialization

Following the advice in several forum posts, along with this jsbin created by Alexander Valchev, I am investigating the use of an observable object that provides HTML content to be rendered:
jsbin.com/iyakig/2/edit
If I add a second button to the code in the jsbin like this:
makeButton: function () {
var html = '<a data-role="button" data-bind="click: makeListView">Replace again</a><a data-role="button" data-bind="click: makeListView">Replace yet again</a>';
this.set("foo", html);
},

The second button does not get initialized as a widget as you can see here:
jsbin.com/iyakig/31/edit
Is there a limitation on MVVM binding of HTML code?

We have been using kendo.mobile.init() to initialize all widgets in the HTML generated by a template, but we are looking to use MVVM binding as suggested in this post. We would be very interested in knowing why additional widgets are not initialized as well as the advantages to this approach vs. the kendo.mobile.init() approach.

Assistance with locating x,y values in chart

I was looking at the code of Kendo Chart to find out how the points (for line chart) are plotted from a single dataItem. While researching I found out that you are using a Box2D method from where you are creating a property which contains (x1,y1, x2, y2) and with this property you are plotting the points with there average values.

I was unable to found out that from where you are retrieving these values (x1,y1,x2,y2). If you can please show me the path (function) from where you are converting these values then it will help me to find a solution.

Thanks.

How do I prevent a new Grid row from being created if current row is not valid

I'm using a grid in an MVVM environment. The grid that starts out with now rows. Once the Add New Row button is clicked the grid adds a row but the user can keep clicking the button and add new rows without any validation on existing rows. How can I either disable the New Row button, perform validation on the current row before adding a new row or client side validate all rows before trying to update to the server. I don't care if a user wants to add several rows and then edit the columns before saving the changes back to the server but I need to validate all required fields first.

Kendo grid and kendo window - creating custom kendo observable for the kendo window

Hello,

We are currently working on a kendo web project where we need to be able to have a button on a grid that opens a kendo modal window and then creates a custom viewmodel to be consumed by the current kendo window that can be passed into another kendo window. However, I can't seem to find a way to bind a ViewModel into the kendo window. Any help would be appreciated. Here is my code:

The problems that I know about are:

I don't know where to bind the observable to the window.
How to pass the same observable from window to window.

Thanks,

Colin
