candlestick chart for non financial purpose

Hi,
I was trying to use the candle stick chart for non financial data. Basically, I was trying to use the chart in place of a box n whiskers chart.
So I tried using kendochart instead of kendoStockChart and set the chart type to "candlestick" and it worked! However, since I was using kendoChart, I was not able to zoom on the chart using mouse scroll.
I referred to the link http://www.kendoui.com/forums/dataviz/general-discussions/zoom-example.aspx for implementing my own zoom but I was not able to get the axis correctly.
I have two questions:
1. In case I use kendoChart for candlestick chart, how can I get the x Axis correctly?
2. Is there a way to use the kendoStockChart for non financial applications? Basically, my X axis wont be dates and could be patients.

Code snippet which I wrote is as under:
var title = $("#paramDropDown").data("kendoDropDownList").dataItem();
$("#boxplot").kendoChart({
theme: $(document).data("kendoSkin") || "default",
dataSource: {
data: obj
},
title: {
text: title
},
series: [{
type: "candlestick",
openField: "q1Val",
highField: "maxVal",
lowField: "minVal",
closeField: "q3Val"
}],

transitions: false,
drag: onDrag,
zoom: onDrag

});

KendoUI T4 Template for VS2010

I have spent the last week or so using kendo with a MVC3 project. While learning Kendo I have also been playing around with T4 templating.

I have written a template that uses the default List template but I have modified it to use the KendoUI grid.

I thought I would share it with others as hopefully it will some someone else time. It could do with a few tweaks so I might add it to github soon.

Clear autocomplete value on select change event

I have the following jsFiddle and want to clear the autocomplete field when the user has selected an item. The following code does not do this:-



$("#input").data("kendoAutoComplete").value("");

Is this possible?

//create AutoComplete UI component

$("#input").kendoAutoComplete({

dataSource: data,

filter: "startswith",

placeholder: "Select country...",

select: function(e) {

var dataItem = this.dataItem(e.item.index());

$('#list').append("<li>" + dataItem + "</li>");

$("#input").data("kendoAutoComplete").value("");

}

});

[Solved] Bug with v2012.3.1114 splitter

Seems that if you use the mouse to click directly on the splitter without dragging the screen freezes with a modal overlay.

In the prior versions (last 2) there was no overlay used when sliding the splitter. In this new version when using the mouse to slide the splitter (which doens't appear in the demos), the screen goes gray and when the drag is complete it returns to normal. However a simple click will freeze the screen.

If someone has seen this issue or knows a work around, I'd really appreciate it.

If I use the keyboard to navigate and resize the splitter the modal overlay is not present. This only happens on a mouse click.

Treeview dataImageUrlField Templating?

Is there a way to specify a template for the dataImageUrlField? For instance, the webservice that generates my DTO is not application specific, so it may generate an object with just "IMAGE_UID_SPECIFIER" in the dataImageUrlField. Once an app is deployed however, I may want to map this to http://tempuri.com/imagewebservice/IMAGE_UID_SPECIFIER. In this case I'd want my template to be something like

dataImageUrlField: http://mytemplateurl/imagewebservice/IMAGE_UID_SPECIFIER

{
  "name": "object1",
  "image": "IMAGE_UID_SPECIFIER"
}

$("#tree").kendoTreeView({
checkboxes: {
checkChildren: true
},
dataImageUrlField: 'image',
dataTextField: "name",
});

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Paul

Can't get pagable working.

My grid looks like this:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Biblioteka.ViewModels.BookViewModel>()

.Name("BooksKendoGrid")

.Columns(columns =>

{

columns.Bound(p => p.Title);

columns.Bound(p => p.Author);

columns.Bound(p => p.GenreName);

columns.Bound(p => p.ReleaseDate).Format("{0:d}");

columns.Bound(p => p.ISBN);

columns.Bound(p => p.BorrowCount);

columns.Bound(p => p.RealBookCount);

columns.Bound(p => p.AddDate).Format("{0:d}");

columns.Bound(p => p.ModifiedDate).Format("{0:d}");

columns.Bound(p => p.BookId).Width(150).ClientTemplate("<input type=\"button\" value=\"Edit #= Title #\" style=\"width : 100px;\" onclick=\"openEditWindow(#= BookId #)\"/>");

})

.Pageable()

.Sortable()

.Scrollable()

.Filterable()

.HtmlAttributes(new { style = "height: 200px" })

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.PageSize(2)

.Model(model =>

{

//The unique identifier (primary key) of the model is the ProductID property

model.Id(p => p.BookId);

})

.Read(read => read.Action("BooksKendoGridRead", "Raports")

)

As you can see I had enabled Pageable and I set .PageSize to 2 but it doesn't work it cut other elements in grid ... and leave only 2

WebView

Hi,

          My simple apps needs to point a website for example (www.mywebsite.com). And when it display the page, it should show the whole page and the user can zoom in or out.

           Please let me know on how to do it or whatever KendoUI can do about it.

Thanks

Building fitler for 'startswith' for 0-9

I am using MVC.
I am having some difficulty in creating a filter for a column 'Name' where startswith 0-9

grid.dataSource.filter([

{ field: "Name", operator: "startswith", value: "0" },

{ field: "Name", operator: "startswith", value: "2" },

{ field: "Name", operator: "startswith", value: "3" },

{ field: "Name", operator: "startswith", value: "4" },

{ field: "Name", operator: "startswith", value: "5" }

]);

Above is abbrieviated....
Basically i have a text field 'Name' and i need to show any record that starts with 0-9.

Seems like no matter which way i phrase the filter, the filter on the DataSourceRequest never haves more that two filters (CompositeFilter).

Any help would be great. thanks. Logically i know i could have ten colums and filter by all ten columns for some value so my feeling is internally it is grouping by "Name" b/c the demos only support two filters per column.
