Hello, Kendo Team
  I'm studying Kendo UI Mobile data binding features and has a problem,when define a parse function for  kendo.data.Model  in "fields" section,the function has not triggered when create a new instance of the Model.
In above code,the parse function is not triggered when create a new Person.
My question is:
How about he parse function works, any advices for parse function usage?

Hello,
I'm trying to add sorting to a DataSource, which generally is working just fine. The only problem is that it seems the sort mode is case sensitive.

If you check out this Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/EaNm4/ 
You will see what I mean. ('Alphy' is at the beginning of the list, while 'alpha' is at the end of the list). Is there a way I can specify my own sort algorithm or a way to make the default one case insensitive? I've checked the docs but I'm having a hard time finding anything.

Hi, I wrote kendo Grid control in javascript application; I had needed implement server-side grouping, but I couldn't turn it on eventually. Server sorting, and filtering already works, perhaps I am doing something wrong in a render-control-code; here it is:



When I fire my application, I am trying drag'n'drop column header to "Drop column header here" box, but it seems like this functionality was disabled.

Maybe I am missing some section in kendoGrid constructor, or maybe I wrote some unnecessary data?

When I add grid and dropdownlist control in page, I found the control size is bigger than your demo's. How come that? I attach my screenshot

hey guys
I'm facing the following issue right now:

we use a grid which has a custom toolbar button which runs some function in the background. the code looks like this:

what we want to achieve is: after the categorize button is clicked it should be disabled first. when the background operation succeeded, the tooltip should be displayed at the top of the categorize now button and the button should get its original state again and be enabled again.

right now the tooltip is only showing if the operation has finished and the mouse enters the button.

any advice would be helpful.

thx in advance and kind regards
thomas

I`m binding data via Ajax to grid. I added Change event to the grid. what happening is code inside the Onchange event is executing twice .
I have ajax call inside the Change event function , how can I control this ?  My requirement is I should able to write an event that fires at row level like row select event.


 @(Html.Kendo().Grid<User>()
      .Name("grid")
      .DataSource(datasource => datasource
          .Ajax()
          .ServerOperation(false)
          .Model(model => model.Id(p => p.UserID))
          .Read(read => read.Action("AllUserRecords_Read", "User"))
          .PageSize(15)

      )
      .Columns(columns =>
      {
          columns.Bound(p => p.FirstName).Width(40);
          columns.Bound(p => p.LastName).Width(80);
          columns.Bound(p => p.EmailAddress).Width(70);
       })
      .Pageable(pageable => pageable.PreviousNext(true).PageSizes(new[] { 5, 10, 15, 20 }))
      .Filterable()
      .Events(events => events.DataBound("onDataBound").Change("grid_change"))
      .Selectable(select => select.Mode(GridSelectionMode.Single))
      .Resizable(resize => resize.Columns(true))
      .Reorderable(reorder => reorder.Columns(true)))

 function grid_change(e) {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "/User/GetRoles",
                data: { userID: id },
                async: false,
                success: function (response) {
                    $("#roles").replaceWith(response);
                },
                error: function (response, q, t) {
                    alert(response.responseText);
                }
            });
 function onDataBound(arg) {
        this.element.find('tbody tr:first').addClass('k-state-selected');
}
}

In WPF RadControls you can pass a function call back to a RadWindow. Can you use a similar approach with Kendo modalView?

WPF Example

Sorry for posting C# :-)

Is this approach possible with Javascipt and modalView in am mobile app? the samples I've seen don't do this

I know you can override the close event but that doesn't help me, If Kendo implemented Confirm,Alert etc like RadWindow it would be very useful.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something conceptually wrong, but I'd like to use a predefined model and fill it with data form a remote request through DataSource AND the same model inside a view for exposing it's data in HTML.

Right now, I'm doing something like that:

As soon as I use the binding inside the view, I'm getting an "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined" from kendo.mobile.min.js.

Am I doing this wrong (or too complicated?).

As a work-around, I changed it to:
which works fine, but I'd prefer to bind it.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

I have a Kendo Grid with a column bounded to a enum.  All works fine except when it comes to sorting.  The sorting is performed on the int values of the items, instead of by the text.  i.e.

public enum Test{
    Red = 1,
    Yellow = 2
    Amber = 3
}

Sorting ascending, it outputs: Red, Yellow, Amber.  Instead of Amber, Red, Yellow.
Sorting descending it outputs: Amber, Yellow, Red.  Instead of Yellow, Red, Amber.

How can I get it to sort properly based on the text strings on the left?

Thx!

New to Kendo and tablet/responsive development and am really lost trying to decide what widgets to use for the following.

Id like something to work like the dropdownlist in the mobile framework forms section except it would work like this.
Click on an initiator.
Depending on window size, slide over or just open something on the screen like the dropdown does.
Load and display a grid which has the potential to be very long. Allow the user to highlight more than one row which will act as selections so vertical scrolling will be required.
Hit a back or close and you are back to the same page where the initiator is.

I've found some widgets here and there while going through all the examples but didn't write them down and now I can't find them anymore.

thanks
