Is there a guide to formatting forum posts?

For instance:

How to format code-blocks?
How to embed a jsFiddle (or jsBin) inline

This is a great item for the Forums FAQ.

Thx.

All-day event and cross-midnight event

I like the new Scheduler, but I do not understand some feature.

If creating an event with start="03-Jul-2013 23:30" and end="04-Jul-2013 01:30", it only appears as "isAllDay" in the slot "allDaySlot". But this is wrong, the event lasts only two hours and do not take "all day". And if you reset the flag "allDaySlot" to "false", the event is not displayed in the "day view" or "week view", but in view "Agenda" event is displayed correctly with the indication of the beginning and the end.

Telerik old RADScheduler behaves correctly for that events. It renders first part of the event in one day and the remainder of the event in another. Do you plan to add the same feature for Kendo Scheduler?

Grid horizontal scroll bar is between grid data and total/aggregation area?

I have a grid configured like in http://jsfiddle.net/dimodi/pcDq5/

This is working fine, except one thing. The horizontal scrollbar is stuck between the grid data and the totals area. I would expect the horizontal scroll to be below the total area.

Is there a recommended way to achieve that?

Thanks,
Ryan

Autocomplete WCF service data binding (XML communication)

Hi,

First of all I would like to mark that I'm quite fresh in the kendo UI stuff.
My employer asked me to write a mobile application using kendo UI. Because there is no data binding Topics I decided to write my post here.

So the problem is that autocomplete input does not get the data from webservice some how. I'm not shure if I wrote databinding correct.

Could someone help me? I'll be greateful for any help with that.

// THIS IS JAVASCRIPT
$("#tbProducer").kendoAutoComplete({
minLength: 1,
filter: "contains",
placeholder: "Wpisz producenta...",
dataSource: {
//type: "xml",
transport: {
read: {

}
},

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

The attachment is the response I get from the webservice.
The webservice is the WCF webservice. I use basichttpbinding because it is appropriate for Windows Phone App. I read it is OK for Kendo to get data from XML services (not only Json).

Thank you for your help. Any asnwer will be appreciated.

Best regards,
Paul

[Solved] Template of columnMenu has changed in 2013 version which prevent to skin checkbox column Menu

Hi,
I' trying to upgrade kendo from version 2012.2.913 to 2013.1.514 and i've noticed that the template used to generate the column menu has changed from :

'<li><label><input type="checkbox" data-#=ns#field="#=columns[col].field#" data-#=ns#index="#=columns[col].index#"/>#=columns[col].title#</label></li>'+

to

'<li><input type="checkbox" data-#=ns#field="#=columns[col].field#" data-#=ns#index="#=columns[col].index#"/>#=columns[col].title#</li>'

The suppression of the label in the template makes my little snippet of jsscript to mal function: this script is used to skin the checkbox displayed in the column menu:

// First put the label BEFORE the input

var

chkIdCounter = 1;

$(

"label > input[type='checkbox']").each(function

() {

       $(

this).attr("id", "labeledCheckBox"

+ chkIdCounter);

       $(

this).parent().attr("for", "labeledCheckBox"

+ chkIdCounter++);

       $(

this).insertBefore($(this).parent().parent().find($(this).parent()));});

and the we use the 'sprite trick' to skin the checkbox:

/* then hide the input and display a sprite in place */

input[type=

"checkbox"]

{

position: absolute;

display: none;

}

input[type="checkbox"]:checked ~ label::before

{

background-position: 0 -20px;

}

/* skin-specific sprite */

input[type="checkbox"] ~ label::before

{

background-image: url('itesoft/radios.png');

}

So i've 2 questions, please:
First, i'm curious to know why the label has been deleted, is it a wrong way to use checkbox ?
Then i would want to know if there is an other way to skin the checkbox of the column menu or to provide the template to use to build them ?

Thanks,
Cedric

Refresh Data Issue

Hi,

I have a grid that can be altered through calls to a webservice as users adjust things on a page.

To do this I initially did the following

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({ data: CategoryPlanList, pageSize: 15 });
grid.setDataSource(dataSource);

Which updated my data perfectly, however I also needed to update columns whilst doing this, after some reading around I found a post saying I would have to remove and re-initialize the grid if I wish to do this, so I do:

grid.destroy();
$("#grid").empty();

and then re-create the grid using the same code that I used to initialize the grid in the first place, however this appears to have the issue that when the data is reloading the reordable facility on the grid ceases to function.

Does anyone know of a way where I can re-load a grid with new data and a new set of columns without the re-odering isue?

Thanks

Craig

[Solved] How to pass variables in Grid Column ClientTemplate

Hello,

I would like to use ClientTemplate in a Grid column. I want to create html link in one of those column. I am not sure how declare and pass a variable of the Model that I am passing into the grid. I am trying to pass the variable ID and the name for the link as variable. model => model.IDString contains the id that is being passed to link and name of the link is represented in model => model.ViewImage.

Here is the piece of code I am using.

<div id="SearchResultGrid">
        @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)
        .Name("ExampleGrid")
        .Columns(columns =>
        {
            columns.Bound(model => model.IDString).Title("ID");
            columns.Bound(model => model.ViewImage).Title("View Image").ClientTemplate(model =>(
                "<a href='/Example/ExampleDocument.aspx?Id=" + model.IDString + "' >" + model.ViewImage + "</a>")
                );
        })
    .Pageable()
    .Sortable()
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .PageSize(10)
        .ServerOperation(false)
        .Sort(sort =>
        {
            sort.Add(model => model.Created).Descending();
        })
        )
.BindTo(Model)
    .Reorderable(reorder => reorder.Columns(true))
)
</div>

Can you give me an example of how declare the variable for this action link.
Following line works well for a server action

columns.Template(model =>(
                "<a href='/Provider/ProviderCorrespondenceDocument.aspx?CorrespondenceId=" + model.IDString + "' >" + model.ViewImage + "</a>")
                );

Multiple Points For a Category

Hi

I am trying to render a series that has 2 points for a given interval (e.g. category axis times at 00:00:00). My Kendo implementation seems to "step" the line even though the value is for the same interval.

I've attached a sample excel sample which renders my desired result, and my Kendo implementation. Is this possible - can you please provide a sample.

Thanks

Grid Server Side Filtering on multiple columns with ASP .NET Web API issues

I am trying to implement server side filtering using the Kendo UI Grid and ASP .NET Web API RC. It works fine with one column, but when the user filters on a second column issues occur. The values for the second column seem to be included in the array of values for column one. How can I parse this on the server?

I am including the JSON format of the data being passed to the server because it is easier to read. Normally I have to pass the values in the query string. If the JSON format could be used that would be better (so let me know if anyone knows how):

{"take":10,"skip":0,"page":1,"pageSize":10,"filter":{"filters":[{"field":"Column1","operator":"eq","value":"val1"},{"field":"Column1","operator":"eq","value":"val2"},{"logic":"or","filters":[{"field":"Column2","operator":"eq","value":5},{"field":"Column2","operator":"eq","value":1}]}],"logic":"and"},"group":[]}

Here are the c# objects for the mapping that I found online that currently only works with one column. PageListArguments is the object that is used as the input parameter for the Get function of the Web API Controller.

public class GridFilter
{
public string Field { get; set; }
public string Operator { get; set; }
public string Value { get; set; }
}

public class GridFilters
{
public List<GridFilter> Filters { get; set; }
public string Logic { get; set; }
}

public class GridSort
{
public string Field { get; set; }
public string Dir { get; set; }
}

public class PageListArguments
{
public int Take { get; set; }
public int Skip { get; set; }
public int Page { get; set; }
public int PageSize { get; set; }
public string Group { get; set; }
public List<GridSort> Sort { get; set; }
public GridFilters Filter { get; set; }
}

Everything parses fine except for the filter when more than one column is used.

New project error

Hi,
I created a new mvc 4 web application project. I then compiled and ran the project.
Then I went to the logon page and clicked on the username textbox. All is well.
I then stopped the project, went to the telerik menu and chose convert to kendo.
I then ran the project again and went to the login page and clicked on the username textbox.
This time:

Unhandled exception at line 1234, column 5 in /Scripts/jquery.validate.js0x800a138f Microsoft JScript runtime error: Unable to get value of the property 'call': object is null or undefined

Very easy to reproduce, very hard to understand what's going on.
Please help ... Ed
