Does the Kendo Editor have the Code block control? I see this feature in the Ajax control but its not listed specifically within the kendo control.

[Solved] Kendo data format compatibility with Tastypie/Django backend

My apologies if this has been covered before, but I searched and did not see exactly this issue. I've placed this in the Grid forum, but maybe that's not quite the best place for it. Anyway, on to the problem.

I have seen that data coming from Kendo POST and PUT operations is formatted.. uh.. really strangely. Tastypie (which is an API framework) barfs up an error like so:

raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")

So I inserted some code into my back-end to dump the raw data. You can see a sample of that data here:

active=false&description=Small+shiny+Widget&internal_part_no=A01-1&low_stock_alert=10&manuf_part_no=83927&pub_date=2012-10-03T19%3A48%3A19.559618&quantity_available=1&serial_no=00001&title=Special+part+01&unit_cost=124.43

This differs quite a lot from the formatting when I use Ext JS to POST or PUT, you can see a sample of roughly equivalent data here:

{"id":2,"description":"Special funky widget","manuf_part_no":"9766","internal_part_no":"A02-1","serial_no":"010101","unit_cost":"22.98","added_date":""}

At this point I suspect that I must be missing something really obvious with my Kendo configuration. I have attached the javascript used to produce the sample data in this post. It's not a problem for me to write a custom deserializer for the back-end to handle this data, but I feel like I must be making a simple mistake. Thanks for any ideas.

Collapse Groups with server processing

If I'm dealing with large datasets and hence doing all the processing on the server (paging, grouping etc) is there any way to determine when groups are collapsed?

I want to be able to show aggregates for each group but allow the user to see them all on one page by collapsing them. Due to size of the datasets I don't won't to pass all the data to the client, therefore I use server side paging.

Example:

I have a list of 10,000 customers and I want to produce a grid with 100 items per page that groups the data by Continent. The server will do the paging, grouping and aggregation. The output will be a list of groups like

Africa Count=10,000
Europe Count=30,000
N. America Count=20,000.

I want the end user to be able to see the overall summary in one go. The way it's seems to work is that I have to scroll through every page to find the summary information for a group. The user has no way of knowing that some groups even exist unless they go through every page. I also want the user to be able to group by a different field (e.g. Language) and have the groups regenerated with the possibility to collapse all groups and see the summary information.

[Solved] popover acts like not initialized

Have an anchor:

<a id="popanchor" data-rel="popover" href="#popover-task" data-role="button" >Open PopOver</a>

and a popover:

<div data-role="popover" id="popover-task" >

<div data-role="view">

Hi There

</div>

Other kendo elements seem to be working fine. Get error when clicking on the button "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'openFor' of undefined".

Looking at source the error occurs here:

kendo.widgetInstance($(href), ui).openFor(link);

In the widgetInstance function...

kendo.widgetInstance = function(element, suite) {

var widget = suite.roles[element.data(kendo.ns + "role")];

if (widget) {

return element.data("kendo" + widget.fn.options.prefix + widget.fn.options.name);

}

};

it fails to find the "kendoMobilePopOver" data. Which leads me to believe its not initializing properly. I tried setting up in in JavaScript instead and same result.

Thoughts? Thanks,

Dennis

fluid sizing on the calendar

We're having a problem where out calendar is set to width: 100%...but when you change the month then resize the browser window, it's set a fixed width on k-content so the calendar looks all gimpy. If we set k-content too width:100%, when you change months the TDs go all screwy as it animates I guess 2 months together.

DropDownList. DataItem bug?

Hi it's told that for DropDownList, dataItem():
"Returns the raw data record at the specified index. If the index is not specified, the selected index will be used."
I use it with no index specified. This works if I select a value using keyboard. If I select a value by mouse click, I get not current but previously selected value.
(using kendo.web.min.js v2012.2.710)
Thanks

need Phonegap

Hello,

I am planning to develop a mobile application in android using KendoUI. Do I need to use Phonegap(need to refer cordova?) or I can develop the entire application using KendoUI framework without using Phonegap?

Other question is there will be any challenge if I am planning to use the IDE as Visual Studio and platform as Windows phone 7. Because it says KendoUI does not support in Windows Phone 7. But I got this link. Please give a suggestion.

Thanks

PI Chart Label width - overflow hidden.

The chart is using text node in the SVG to display the labels. The chart does not arrange the labels correctly based on the label width. Look at the example below.

http://jsfiddle.net/8W8Kv/

Any solution?
Is there a max-width property on the labels? I could not find one. :(

Regards,
Ujjwal Karjee
