I am using the Kendo Grid with a custom sort criteria component, and also storing the grid state so as to return the grid to the state it was in when the page is reloaded at a later stage. In so doing, I need to set the grid to a specific page, and pass additional values to the read action.

 I do not know how to set the page number along with the additional data in one call, so I am setting the grid page and calling read on the dataSource to achieve what I want. Naturally, I would prefer to do this in one call. So, what I want to know is: Can you set the page on the grid without triggering a dataSource read?

I read about the autoSync property, and thought I could temporarily set it to false (while setting the page number), but the property does not seem to be there. Was it deprecated?

 And:
Can I set the read to be a JavaScript function, so as to pass additional values that way? I know I can call the read method from script, and I am, but I want to make the "default" read (the one triggered when paging) to be a javaScript function.

Edit:
I just found the example that illustrates passing additional data to the read action by calling a javaScript function. Nice! So please ignore the second question. So, the only issue I have left is how to get back data and jump to a specific page in one step (without resulting in two calls to the read action).

2nd edit: 
Sorry, I typed this in the early hours of the morning and was not very coherent. What I am looking to do can be distilled to the following: 

Is it possible to, on the initial load (page loading for the first time with a Kendo Grid), set the grid to start on a specific page (other than page 1)? 
What I have done is to add  a hidden element to the page with the page number I want to set the grid to as the value. Then, by binding to the databound event, I can check this value and, if it is required (if it is greater than 1), set the grid's page number to this value, which then triggers the read. This works, but it means two calls to the read action (the initial one, and the one for the page jump). I tried switching off the autoBind, but it still requires two calls to get the grid set. It seems that calling the read action with a page number greater than the current page set causes it to be ignored and revert to page 1. So, one has to load page 1, then jump to the page you want.

Is there any way to set the grid's initial page number, so as to avoid the double data read?

  

Is there a way to change the default 200ms fade:in modal view animation or disable it entirely? I tried manually setting the kendoMobileModalView's shim options but to no avail.

Hi,

It looks like there is some bad styling for the Kendo Window when used in iOS7.  Look at the title bar in the attached screenshot.  The window looks normal in iOS6.  I'm using kendo web v2013.2.918, kendo mobile v2013.2.918, kendo dataviz v2013.2.918 and PhoneGap 3.1.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As in the above link it is mentioned that vertical scroll is not supported with detail Template
Currently this bug is resolved or still it is unsupported

Hi,

I am modifying the Custom Template for the ScrollView.  I have it displaying 4 images per page just like the demo does but I have noticed that if the total number of images returned in the data set isn't divisible by 4 then the remaining images do not display.

For example, my data set has 101 entries. Images 1-100 are seen but image 101 doesn't show. I assume that this is because the template is expecting 4 records or images at a time.

How can I make sure that all my images display regardless if the total is divisible by 4 or not?


Thanks,
Eric

Hi, 
I am using a grid with inline editing.  I would like for the Add button in the tool bar to invoke an action (go to a full edit screen) instead of adding inline.  Is there a  way to override this? 
Thank you.

With this template


The DOM will not update when the code runs and increases the size, without an explicit call to the change event.

I am including the CSS classes used too, just for your convenience.
Running it with the following code will get it to work, but it is a bit obtuse. I would prefer if it just worked like other updates.

Exmaple has Parent node with a checkbox and "x" child nodes.
When selecting the parent node all children are selected.

After executing code to uncheck all checkboxes:
$('input.checkbox-strategy:checkbox').prop('checked', false);
$('input.checkbox:checkbox').prop('checked', false);

After the code above executes when clicking on the Parent the children checkboxes are not checked. After unchecking and rechecking the Parent then the child nodes are selected as expected.

Is there a better way to "uncheck" the checkboxes so it behaves as expected?

thanks.

The splitter shows up, but I want the splitter to fill the page as it's shown, with a min height . However, when I adjust the page nothing happens. I tried to use the 
but it doesn't find the splitter. Any advice would be appreciated.

here is my HTML & JS

JS:

The Kendo documentation describes the above property as follows: 
"Specifies the field of the original record which value to be used for population of the Model field."

I don't quite understand what is meant here. Can someone describe what this property is actually for?
