Hello,

I have a grid that is dynamically filled with data that I do not know the name and I want to add a command column to this grid but it seems that I need to define the colums before this command column like this :

$("#grid").kendoGrid({
  columns: [
    { field: "name" },
    { command: [{ className: "btn-destroy", name: "destroy", text: "Remove" }] }
  ],
  editable: true,
  dataSource: [ { name: "Jane Doe" } ]
});
But I can't because as I said I don't know the names of my columns ... How can I do this ?

Thanks.

I'm trying to  use data-attribute initialization to bind the dataSource for an autoComplete input to my viewModel (a Kendo observable)

First off, the viewModel is:
...
              this.viewModel = kendo.observable({
...
                address: null,
                lookupAddress: function() { ... }
...
           });

And is bound during class/object initialization:
          kendo.bind($("#add-location-subview"), this.viewModel, kendo.mobile.ui);

My HTML is:

           <input id="address-field"
                data-role="autocomplete"
                data-filter="startswith"
                data-bind="value: address, events: {change: lookupAddress}"
          />

And, indeed, the address property and lookupAddress event are correctly bound

When I add the data-source in the markup, the autocomplete works correctly:
           <input id="address-field"
                data-role="autocomplete"
                data-source="{data:[ 'item1','item2'','item3','item4','aaa','bbb','ccc']}"
                data-filter="startswith"
                data-bind="value: address, events: {change: lookupAddress}"
          />

When I try and move the datasource to my model, the autocomplete does not work.
new script:
              this.viewModel = kendo.observable({
...
                address: null,
                theList: new kendo.data.DataSource({
                    data:[ 'item1','item2'','item3','item4','aaa','bbb','ccc']
                }),
                lookupAddress: function() { ... }
...
           });

new HTML:
           <input id="address-field"
                data-role="autocomplete"
                data-source="theList"
                data-filter="startswith"
                data-bind="value: address, events: {change: lookupAddress}"
          />

The docs show examples which indicate that this is the correct syntax.  What am I missing here?  Also, what is the difference between using data-source="..." and data-bind="source: ..." ?

Thanks.

Hi There,

I have a working stacked area StockChart with a legend and a navigator (using the 514 release). The legend hover-over which would normally highlight all points of the hovered series is throwing a JavaScript error on line 57238 of kendo.all.js, since it hits a point which is null. This point is in the navigator - screenshot attached.

I'm not sure why the navigator has generated 25 points for the 24 in the JSON of the DataSource.

Any ideas how to progress this?

Many thanks,
Chris

Hi,

I understand that when we put tabstrip control on the page then it generates an unordered list with listitems in it which in turn have hyperlinks contained which act as links for switching the tabs.

Now for our Automation requirements we need to have Ids on these inner contained hyperlinks ?

Can you please let know that how it can be accomplished ?

Thanks,
M

When I'm using kendo mobile - each url ends with #
e.g:

http://demos.kendoui.com/mobile/m/index.html#/

Even if it is working in most time sometimes it causes issues because e.g clik on list will generate:

http://demos.kendoui.com/mobile/m/index.html#/mobile/m/overview/index.html

So there is part of address duplicated. - so when I built custom link I have issues with some dynamic parameters. Can I avoid that?

So when I have something custom link like :
href="#item?id=1"

after click it renders link at the root not current subpage.

Hello All,

Is it possible to edit a few fields inline in the grid and a few fields in the popup editor. The way I am looking at it is, when the record in the grid is in the edit mode, I would like to have links or buttons on few fields and if they need to be edited I would click on the link or button to open the popup edit them and close the popup. Once the popup is closed it should update the corresponding fields in the grid and when the row is saved all the changes should be persisted. Can you please provide a sample as to how this needs to be done.

Thank you
Kavitha

Is there a way to show a message when a field's input isn't being parsed? There doesn't seem to be any visual clue that what the user has just attempted wasn't accepted.

It would be nice to send some meta information about the data along with the records. 

I want to dynamically show series based on the value of one of the bound fields in the datasource. If there are no records I don't want to show a donut chart ring for example.

Currently, I have to resort to some brittle logic in the change event of the datasource to do the trick. 

change: function (e) {
 
    var item = this.data()[0];
    var chart = $("#training-chart").data("kendoChart");
     
 
    // find the empty donut items.
    if (item.numberCompleted == 0)
        chart.options.series.splice(0, 1);
    if(item.numberExpired == 0)
        chart.options.series.splice(1, 1);
    if (item.numberNotTaken == 0)
        chart.options.series.splice(2, 1);
    if (item.numberDue == 0)
        chart.options.series.splice(3, 1);
    chart.refresh();
},
If I could create a datasource that would look more like the following:
data =  
{
      metaproperty : someUsefulInfo,
      chartData  : [ { data: 1 }, { data: 2 },{ data: 3 }]
}

If I could then bind the chartData as my chart datasource instead of the data starting at the root that would be great!

In other places where I've seen SVG used, you can right-click on the SVG graphic and copy it or save it as a picture. For instance, most of the icons on http://intertwingly.net/blog/ are done in SVG. It's really nice because I like to embed the images in emails or documents. Kendo's charts don't seem to do this. Has anybody tried doing this? For instance, is there a way to use the svg() method on the chart to create a downloadable file?

Hi,

I am having an issue binding a KendoUI Grid to a JSON data source using MVC 4. I have the following setup:

  1. One controller called DashboardController.cs
  2. The DashboardController.cs contains an action called Reports_Read which has the following code
public ActionResult Reports_Read()
{
    List<Report> reports = new List<Report>();
    reports.Add(new Report
    {
        ReportId = Guid.NewGuid(),
        Title = "Lorem Ipsum",
        BillToClient = "Frosty Stevens",
        MainRecipientContact = "Dusty McLaren",
        NextReportDue = DateTime.Now.AddDays(7),
        PrimaryConsultant = "Sprinkles O'Reilly",
        ServiceCategoryCode = "ABC"
    });
 
    reports.Add(new Report
    {
        ReportId = Guid.NewGuid(),
        Title = "Lorem Ipsum",
        BillToClient = "Harry Houdini",
        MainRecipientContact = "David Blaine",
        NextReportDue = DateTime.Now.AddDays(7),
        PrimaryConsultant = "Dynamo",
        ServiceCategoryCode = "EFG"
    });
 
    return Json(reports, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
3. The Index.aspx contains the KendoUI Grid as follows:

<%:Html.Kendo().Grid<ProcareGroup.Crm.Web.Models.Report>()
.Name("grid")
.DataSource(ds => ds
    .Ajax()
    .ServerOperation(false)
    .Read(r => {
        r.Action("Reports_Read", "Dashboard");
    }))
.Columns(c => {
    c.Bound(r => r.Title);
    c.Bound(r => r.PrimaryConsultant);
    c.Bound(r => r.ServiceCategoryCode);
    c.Bound(r => r.BillToClient);
    c.Bound(r => r.NextReportDue);
})
.Pageable()
.Sortable()
%>
The debugger hits my breakpoint set inside the Reports_Read action when I launch the page, however nothing is bound to the grid. What am I missing here? I have tried setting AutoBind to true but this does not work.
