I'm trying to decide between KendoUI and another UI framework. The sticking points for me right now are minor so I wanted to put them out there in hopes that they are actually trivial or in the works...

* What additional DataViz types does KendoUI plan to support/develop?
* Is a radar chart (for multivariate data) anywhere in the works?

loadMore and grouped ListViews

Hey there,

I'm working on a messaging module that groups messages into date "categories," similar to something that you would find in Outlook Express (Today, Yesterday, Last Week etc...).

The ListView works wonderfully with a grouped dataSource, but I'm having trouble putting it all together with a loadMore button. When the button is pressed the older messages are loaded just fine, but a new ListView header template is being rendered for the new items, even if they are within the same grouping as the previous items. This results in potentially having multiple headers for each grouping, defeating the purpose of the grouped data in the first place.

Is there any way I can work around this and have the ListView items group themselves properly after pressing the loadMore button?

Thanks for any advice you can give!

There is a behavioral discrepancy between datepicker and datetimepicker when using yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ datetime format. Is there something wrong with parseFormats parameter? Below is the sample code.

overlay gradient not applied when setting series color value.

Hi,

I'm using Kendoui Dataviz 2012.2.831 build and I'm playing with custom bar colors when using chart type = "column"
If i set a series color in series declaration the columns get rendered flat color, even when I set overlay gradiant value to glass (which is the default value)

series:
[{
field: "salesValue",
name: "Current Year",
color: "#ff0000"
},
{
field: "salesLastYearValue",
name: "Last Year",
color: "#00ff00",
overlay: {
gradient: "glass"
}
}],

When I use the new property colorField and provide the same color values as columns im my dataset the chart columns are rendered with glass overlay.

Is this a bug or the normal behavior...

ComboBox in ListView Inline Edit

I am having several problems that I just cannot figure out. I would like to use a combobox or an autocomplete as part of my edit template. I cannot use a static list and i need to search because i could have thousands of results.

I have been trying to get these routine tasks to work for several days now and I am having no luck.This has to be a scenario that lots of people use. There is a simple lookup where i need to get the resultant id and attach it to a record and i dont care about the text, just the id.
If there were more complete examples out there I would assume I can figure this out, but there isn't and I cannot. Please help.

I have included a fiddle that displays all of the problems that I am seeing when I try to edit a ListView inline. http://jsfiddle.net/grippstick/Zv7mc/

When you edit an item it updates the data-value-field with the data-text-value. In the jsFiddle you will see the SkillID is overwritten with the Skill Name.
When you edit and then click the drop down, it selects the first item in the list and not actual value that is already present.
If you click edit on one row and then click edit on another row, the list view will go out of edit mode, but then the buttons will not work and it never goes back into edit mode.
The save event still fires even if the required field is not filled out and it does not pass validation. It does not move my data back to my original object, so i have to copy it. i would assume i do it here.
How would this work with an autocomplete? I can only seem to get the text field to show and it always displays the id by default.

Focusing dropdownlist control in navigatable grid

When using a custom editor for a grid column like this: <select data-role="dropdownlist">....</select>, the control is not focused when you tab from another cell to this cell. Instead the cell keeps the focus.

This is because the last line in Editable.refresh() does not work. There the selector ":input:visible:first" is used to find the control to focus.

But in case of the dropdownlist there is no visible input, only span tags.

How to solve this?
