Display Grid's Editor DropdownList Default Selection In Cell View

Find below a very simplified example derived from an application I'm currently developing. In the real application the data source comes from an AJAX RESTFUL service call, but I have no issues with that part of the code.

The editor function on the ApplicationLogLevel works correctly from a pure editing point of view. When I click on the cell the kendoDropDownList default selection is bound to the cell current value and if I change the current value the cell is updated with the appropriate new value and marked as changed.

What I want to do though, is instead of having the cell's actual numeric value displayed I want the cell to display the default selection from the kendoDropDownList when initially loading the cells contents into the grid. If the value is changed then the default selection of the kendoDropDown should be re-bound to the newly selected value and then displayed with the new selection shown within the cell.

What would be the best way to accomplish this task?

<body>
<div id="grid"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript">

        var simpleAvailableLevels = [{text: "Level -1 = Undefined", value: "-1"},
                                                      {text: "Level 0 = No Logging", value: "0"},
                                                      {text: "Level 1 = Critical", value: "1"},
                                                      {text: "Level 2 = Error", value: "2"},
                                                      {text: "Level 4 = Warning", value: "4"},

Submit Model doesn't send attributes that have functions

I have a viewModel model that has the following type characteristics:

Broker: "",

BondProceeds: function(){

return this.get("UnderlyingPar") * (this.get("UnderlyingPrice")/100) + this.get("UpfrontFees");

},

When I submit using Create on a datasource Broker will get sent but not BondProceeds. I suspect because there is a function. How do you work around this?

Pager Configuration

I have a pretty simple grid

var element = $("#grid").kendoGrid({

dataSource: {

pageSize: 10,

type: "json",

transport: {

read: {

url: queryurl,

dataType: "json"

}

},

schema: {

data: "data",

total: "total"

}

},

detailInit: detailInit,

selectable: true,

sortable: true,

filterable: true,

columnMenu: true,

columns: [ {

field: "PackageID",

width: 90,

title: "Package ID"

} , {

width: 50,

field: "Installations",

title: "Installations"

} , {

field: "InstalledPackage",

width: 100,

title: "Installed Package"

} , {

width: 100,

field: "ApplicationName",

title: "Application Name"

} , {

width: 100,

field: "Windows7Certified",

title: "Win7 Certified"

} , {

width: 120,

field: "RecommendedVersion",

title: "Recommended Version"

}

],

pageable: {

numeric: true,

previousNext: true,

refresh: true,

pageSizes: [ 10 , 25, 50 ]

},

});

}

}).data("kendoComboBox");

works well however I am confused about the pager bar

even the most basic grid in the demos show more information than mine.
all I see are the page numbers themselves and the ellipse to indicate more than 10 pages

I have tried setting the messages: but that doesn't work either

How can I get the prevnext page x of x totals rows etc... to show? like...

pageable: {

numeric: true,

refresh: true,

pageSizes: [ 10 , 25, 50 ],

previousNext: true,

input: true,

info:true

},

Custom width of individual bars and columns

I'm trying to use a stacked bar chart and need to change the width of the bars to match other elements on the page, I have it pretty close just by changing the size of the chart but if I make it any smaller, the labels wont display correctly. Is there anyway to set bar/column widths? Thanks!

Edit: Added a photo of what I'm talking about, changing the height of the chart got the bars to the width they are at now, which worked out because it made the labels match the spacing of the rest of the page. If I go any smaller on the height of the chart then the labels start stacking on top of each other. Is there any way to make the bars that thin?

How save a uploaded image in a specified folder

Hi,

I written the following line to upload images.

<div style="width: 45%">
        <input name="files" id="files" type="file" />
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#files").closest(".k-upload").find("span").css("width", "300px");
            $("#files").kendoUpload({
                localization: {
                    "select": "Upload New Image",
                    "cancel": "Cancel",
                    "retry": "Retry",
                    "remove": "Remove",

Exporting

Hi Kendo Support,

We are already Telerik customers and satisfied with the support.

We are trying out Kendo UI and really excited about the Grids performance.

However there is one feature that I cannot find in Kendo Grids which is the Exporting feature. We really need this feature or any alternative solution.
I have checked some samples in the Code Library that will not work for my case because they are written for MVC project and not for ASP .NET AJAX project.

Please let me know how can I export the filtered data to PDF format in a Kendo Grid using ASP .NET AJAX.

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bilal Ghalayini

Bind #text field

I'm stuck!
My data looks something like this:

{

"@type":"object",

"expand":{"@type":"string","#text":"editmeta,

"key":{"@type":"string","#text":"10005"}

}

and I'm trying to bind the key['#text'] field to a column in my grid as:

$("#grid").kendoGrid({

columns: [

{

field: "key",

title: "key",

}

],

dataSource: {

data: data.issues.item,

pageSize: 10

},

selectable: true,

pageable: true,

});

The sample above only returns "{object Object}", which I expected, but I can't figure out how to get the #text field ;) I've tried defining a schema with the source and I've also used "key[\"#text\"] without any success...

Thanks
Mikael
