If I set the second tab (Sales) to have a data-stretch="true" attribute.  The drawer is not functional on this view. I had my code in a PhoneGap app and noticed a console error related to kendo.currentView.scroller.disable.

Hope that helps.

Hello Support,

We're using DataSource in a stand-alone manner, simply using it as a gateway to and from Web API endpoints.  It's been great for reads.  But now we've come to editing and creating, and we're not having any luck.

Consider the projectsDataService below.  The projectsDataService provides a gateway to an enumerable of Project, which has all of the familiar fields you would expect of a Project class:
01.define('projectsDataService', ['underscore'],
02.    function(_) {
03.        var projectsDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
04.                transport: {
05.                    read: {
06.                        url: "api/projects",
07.                        dataType: "json"
08.                    },
09.                    update: {
10.                        url: "api/projects",
11.                        dataType: "json",
12.                        type: 'PUT'
13.                    }
14.                },
15.                page: 1,
16.                pageSize: 20,
17.                schema: {
18.                    model: {
19.                        location: function() {
20.                            return this.projectAddress.city + ", " + this.projectAddress.state.abbr;
21.                        },
22.                        encodedProjectAddress: function () {
23.                            //implement Strategy pattern for encoding
24.                            var fullAddress = this.projectAddress.streetAddress + ",+" +
25.                                this.projectAddress.city + ",+" +
26.                                this.projectAddress.state.abbr;
27. 
28.                            return fullAddress.replace(/ /g, "+");
29.                        },
30.                        multilineProjectAddress: function() {
31.                            var address = [this.projectAddress.streetAddress,
32.                                '<br/>',
33.                                this.location() + '  ' + this.projectAddress.postalCode].join('\n');
34. 
35.                            return address;
36.                        },
37.                        created: function() {
38.                            return moment(new Date(this.createdAt)).fromNow();
39.                        }
40.                    }
41.                }
42.            }),
43. 
44.            getProjects = function (projectsObservableArray) {
45.                projectsDataSource.fetch(function() {
46.                    var dataView = projectsDataSource.view();
47.                    var projects = [];
48.                    _.each(dataView, function (item) {
49.                        
50.                        projects.push(ko.observable(item));
51.                    });
52.                    projectsObservableArray(projects);
53.                });
54.            },
55.             
56.            saveProjects = function() {
57.                projectsDataSource.sync();
58.            };
59. 
60.        return {
61.            getProjects: getProjects,
62.            saveProjects: saveProjects
63.        };
64.    }
65.);
All of the computed-s on the model are available to Knockout, as expected.  Nothing wrong there.  But I have a couple of questions:
  1.   ProjectAddress is a nested complex type, so that I have projectAddress.streetAddress, projectAddress.city, projectAddress.state, etc.  Changes in these properties are, in fact, manifested in the UI (courtesy of Knockout), but changing them doesn't trigger a call to the transport.  In other words, the changes never make it to the server.  I get the sense that DataSource is expecting flattened data.  If so, how do I go about doing that the "DataSource" way?
  2.  Is the fields property necessary on the model, and what is the difference between binding to a field on the model, and binding to a field in the fields property?
  3.   Consider the getProjects() function.  I'm stuffing a knockout array with an array of oversables--the projects.  Should I be making each of Project's properties observable as well in order for the DataSource to pick up on the change?  The problem is that I'm seeing changes in the client, even across multiple screens, ut no call to the server.
  4. Is the "id" property, or field, necessary on the model?
  5. Is it necessary to mapevery property ("field") on the model, or just those that are interesting, as in the code above?
Thank you.

Hello I just downloaded Kendo UI yesterday and I'm evaluating for a PhoneGap app that I'm working on. We have a few views that require a listview that is scrollable independent from the rest of the view (this is a view for tablets). Unfortunately I don't think the splitview would work for us because we also need a footer across the entire app that holds a tab bar. I tried to wrap the listview in a scroller and the listview did hide it's overflow but the list wasn't scrollable. What is the best practice for setting this up?

I have to say I'm pretty impressed so far with the performance and ease of use of the framework. After months of struggling with JQM, I almost wept when I read through the 'layout' API and got a chance to drop a drawer in my app... Almost. I also have one suggestion. I would love to see more information on structuring an app properly. I've just started with requirejs and it seems to be great at pulling the logic into maintainable chunks. More 'best practice' stuff would be incredibly beneficial for intermediate level users that want to make good decisions the first time through.

I am getting the error "Invalid post content." in Red letters a lot when trying to post to the Kendo Forums.  I am being polite, trying multiple browsers, and pasting things differently. What is the issue I need to address?

I have a simple Grid bound to a Model. Works nice. I need to place tool tips, different for each column header, on the grid. I don't see an MVC object to do that though?

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model.Items as IEnumerable<Holding>)
                               .Name("KendoCGrid")
                               .Columns(columns =>
                                   {
                                       columns.Bound(e => e.SymbolDescription).Title("Security Name");
                                       columns.Bound(e => e.Symbol).Title("Symbol");
                                       columns.Bound(e => e.SecurityType).Title("Type");
                                   })
                                   .Sortable()
                                   .DataSource(dataSource=>dataSource
                                      .Ajax()
                                      .PageSize(50)
                                      .ServerOperation(false)
                                   )

Hello,

I have a template that am using to show a popup for Grid view. The popup is used to show a list of values that are related to that specific records. In the template I need to be able to post data back to server and close the form without refreshing the whole page.

In the code below if I using Html.BeginForm in the template everything works fine, however the whole page gets a refresh when I click the Save button in the template. So I tried to change it to Ajax.BeginForm in hopes of haveing a partial postback and not refresh the whole page when form is submitted. The second approach result an error in the Java script indicating Invalid Template. I appreciate if you provide some insight.

//Error in Javascript here
var detailsTemplate = kendo.template($("#template").html());

 Here is the Template code:

<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="template">
@using (Ajax.BeginForm("ModifyRoleForUser", "Account", new { name = "rolesForm" }, new AjaxOptions() { UpdateTargetId = "template", HttpMethod = "POST" }))
{    
    <div id="details-container">
        <input type="hidden" name="UserName" value="#=UserName#" />
        <h3>#= FirstName # #= LastName #</h3>
        <em>Status: #= UserStatusName #</em>
     @(Html.Kendo().MultiSelect()
     .Name("msRoles")
     .Placeholder("Select Role...")
     .Events(e => e.DataBound("onRolesMultiSelectDataBound"))
     .BindTo(ViewBag.RolesList)
     .ToClientTemplate()
     )
    </div>
    <p>
        <input type="submit" value="Save" />
    </p>
}
</script>

Hi - Just getting started with Kendo and need to post the selected checkboxes from a treeview to an MVC controller.  I was able to get the treeview rendering  with little fuss but am having problems getting the selected checkboxes to post.  The parameter they should map to in my controller action is always null.  Below is what the HTML looks like when my view renders:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>Redacted</title>
    <link href="/Content/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="/Content/site.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <script src="/Scripts/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
    <script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.js"></script>
    <script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js"></script>
    <script src="/Scripts/bootstrap.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <link href="/Assets/css/kendo/kendo.common.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="/Assets/css/kendo/kendo.default.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <script src="/Assets/js/kendo/kendo.core.min.js"></script>
    <script src="/Assets/js/kendo/kendo.userevents.min.js"></script>
    <script src="/Assets/js/kendo/kendo.data.min.js"></script>
    <script src="/Assets/js/kendo/kendo.treeview.min.js"></script>
    <div class="container">
        <h1>Batch Reporting</h1>
        <div class="accordion" id="reports">
            <div class="accordion-group">
                <div class="accordion-heading">
                    <a class="accordion-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="reports" href="#dataExtract">Data Extract</a>
                </div>
                <div id="dataExtract" class="accordion-body collapse">
                    <div class="accordion-inner">
                        <form action="/Report/DataExtract" method="post">
                            <div style="height: 300px; overflow-y: scroll">
                                <div id="treeview"></div>
                            </div>
                            <div>
                                <br />
                                <button class="btn  " type="submit">Submit</button>
                            </div>
                        </form>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $("#treeview").kendoTreeView({
            checkboxes: {
                checkChildren: true,
                name: "checkedItem[]"
            },
            dataSource: [
                {
                    "id": 13, "hasChildren": true, "text": "csd", "items": [
                        {
                            "id": 25, "hasChildren": true, "text": "School", "items": [
                                { "id": 39, "hasChildren": false, "text": "Class 1", "items": null, "expanded": false },
                                { "id": 48, "hasChildren": false, "text": "Class 2", "items": null, "expanded": false },
                                { "id": 90, "hasChildren": false, "text": "Class 3", "items": null, "expanded": false },
                                { "id": 85, "hasChildren": false, "text": "Class 4", "items": null, "expanded": false },], "expanded": false
                        }], "expanded": true
                }]
        });
    </script>
</body>
</html>
The controller action looks like this:
public ActionResult DataExtract(string[] checkedItems)
{
  // Do some really important stuff here...
 
  return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
Any suggestions as to what I need to do to get the array of selected values would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I have a KendoMobileListView with items loaded by endless scroll, with server paging and filtering. Clicking an item leads to a remote mobile view containing its details. The problem is UID seems to get lost/undefined for the previous page items in listview's data source, after a new page has been loaded in the listview.

Found my answer, it seems this is an expected behavior.

Hi,

The new set of DataViz controls are looking good, but there's still way too much animation configured by default. Our users tend to like displays to be rendered as rapidly as possible. I've managed to turn off the overall animation for the chart in general, but can't quite see how to turn off the slide animation for the tooltip. Perhaps this is a css level change? People will definitely want to get rid of this btw. Having the tooltip jump from one point to another on mouse movement is absolutely fine.

Thanks,
George

I'm trying to make an autocomplete and I'm using Visual Studio for debugging. The autocomplete does ask for data, my code returns it then I get this from Visual Studio:

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Unable to get value of the property 'toLowerCase': object is null or undefined
 
function anonymous(d, __f, __o) {
return (d.Title.toLowerCase().lastIndexOf('key', 0) == 0)
}

I'm guessing it is due to d.Title being undefined... BTW: key above was the search word typed into the autocomplete.

I'm creating the autocomplete like this:

// Search box.
    $("#searchBox").kendoAutoComplete({
        minLength: 3,
        dataTextField: "Title", //JSON property name to use
        dataSource: new kendo.data.DataSource({
            type: "json", //Specifies data protocol
            pageSize: 10, //Limits result set
            transport: {
                read: "/Search",
                parameterMap: function() {
                    return { title: $("#searchBox").data("kendoAutoComplete").value() };
                }    
            }
        })
    });


Here is the data returned:

[{"Title":"Doctor Who: The Trial of a Time Lord"},{"Title":"Doctor Who: The Key to Time"},{"Title":"Doctor Who: The Time Meddler"},{"Title":"Doctor Who: The End of Time"}]
