Combobox does not respect 'autoBind: false' option when control value is set

I have a combobox bound to a viewmodel and configured to use a remote datasource for the list of choices as follows:

input.kendoComboBox({

dataTextField: 'label',

dataValueField: 'id',

autoBind: false,

dataSource: {

type: "json",

serverFiltering: true,

transport: {

read: {

url: 'api/getchoices,

data: {

filter: function(){

return input.val();

}

});

<input data-role="combobox" data-bind="value: id, comboboxText:idText"/>

As seen above, the the combobox is configured as "autoBind: false". This value is respected for those comboboxes on the page which have no value (in the viewmodel) but for those comboboxes that do have a value, the combobox will immediately query the remote server when the page loads. This is undesirable from a performance perspective, and also unnecessary since both the dataTextField and dataValueField are being set from the viewmodel.

Is it a bug that autoBind: false is not being respected? How can I suppress this unnecessary call to the remote datasource?

How to create custom Delete/Destroy button/command in Kendo UI grid?

I am using Kendo UI grid with GridEditMode.InCell and I need to add hyperlink for delete/destroy command in the grid column instead of default "Delete" button.

My current code looks like:

          c.Command(command => command.Destroy()).Width(90);

I also placed the same question at Stack Overflow. I hope one of the forums will answer my question.

Thanks in advance.

Visual Studio 2012

Hello,

I know this isn't a Microsoft forum however I think my question will get a better answer if I post it here.

I've just had two new ASP.Net projects handed to me and I'm really stressed! I always want to start new projects with the latest tools at my disposal... well, wouldn't you know that they've landed on my desk yesterday! Pretty much the last day of Teleriks Webinar week (thank you very much, it was great!) and the day Windows 8 was officially released.

I have not installed Visual Studio 2012 on my dev pc yet because I'm worried that it might break my installation of VS 2010 and I have several projects in production that I'm supporting and I wouldn't want anything to happen...

So, my question is this; after installing VS2012 NEXT TO VS 2010, how badly is VS 2010 broken?

I've read that the .net 4.5 release is an In-place upgrade and that I will run into issues when trying to support my Windows XP apps that were build on .Net 4.0.

I've also read Microsoft's posts but I'd like to know what's happening in 'our' world... I really want to build these new projects with MVC 4 and Kendo UI, but I'd like to be sure I won't break anything...

Please let me know if the water is safe!

Thanks!

~ Dave

Kendo Autocomplete cascading dropdown issue (kendoui.complete.2012.2.913_commercial version)

Cascading dropdowns are not autopopulated on selecting an Autocomplete value. We have to click on the cascading dropdown arrow(then only it hits controller{Spring mvc controller}).

On value change of autocomplete, cascading dropdown values are not getting changed, as the required controller is not getting hit

Highlight Ajax Grid Row OnHover

All I am trying to do is have a row in a grid be highlighted when the mouse pointer is over that row (and "un-highlight" the row when the mouse leaves of course). This was simple to do in RadGrid, but I am having a very hard time finding an answer to this one. Thanks in advance.

Custom Tool Tip

Is there a way to customize the tool tip for the Slider in the KendoUI? With the ASP.Net Ajax version I was updating it during the OnClientSlideStart/End events as well as the OnClientValueChanging event by using a tooltip control and sending it an reference to the active handle by calling the slider.get_activeHandle() method.

I'm not sure how to do this with the KendoUI slider. The ASP.Net one works but I'd like to use the Kendo one because it works much better with tablet browsers.

Thanks.
