I have a little snippit of code to create a kendo grid declaratively:

<div id="sitesGrid" data-role="grid" style="width: 800px;"
                 data-sortable="true"
                 data-columns='[{ "field": "accountName", "title": "Account", "width": "150px" }, 
                { "field": "subAccountName", "title": "Sub Account", "width": "180px" }, 
                { "field": "siteName", "title": "Site", "width": "150px" }, 
                {"field": "checkedout",  "title": "Check Out",  "width": "80px"}]'
                data-source="AuroraSurveyTool.lovs.siteList">
            </div>

I would like to have a CheckBox button in the 'Checkedout' field.   How do I do that?  I tried using a template but could not get it configured in any way that was acceptable.

Im having trouble with the combobox as a custom editor. Populating the values are fine, however when selected the entire object (from the combobox) of the row is put into the bound field. This displays itself as [object Object]
Ive copied the column from the demo http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/editing-custom.html as is acting the same strange way that my own field does.
[update solving problems while going along]

Ive had similar problems before but just changed how it was populated. This works fine:

This is the one I need working:
The editor of the cueCollection is:

but it currently has two problems. Clicking on any item it will select correctly and display correctly (in edit row) until finishing with row and clicking update. The first time this it is done the row will display "[object Object]" with the save method showing me the values of the model:
other fields are excluded as they are just general columns and are working as expected. Im expecting the category to be populated as "Dairy Products" and cueCollection to be "4".

These are the columns:

Schema
changing the field type of "Category" to a string seemed to have fixed its return value from the edit row. cueCollection was not so lucky.

the ajax response for the dropdown list is nothing too special:

Overall my aim would be to add the entire json object into the column: {"Id":2,"Name":"collection1"}
as it would be easier to navigate and understand in its future context. Seeing that this is what it is giving me lets roll with it, although im expecting just the id field.

Back on track:
lets skip trying to get just the id, as the object looks far more exciting.
datasource - schema - model - cueCollection
lets give it a default so that creating a new row doesnt break so easily.
combobox data result

selecting the first item and clicking on the update row it will appear as undefined (one of the problems i had earlier but hadnt really noted).
selecting the second will populate cueCollection as expected (as observed). Clicking update will set the field as [object][object] so lets add a client template.
how the column looks in the grid definition:

current problems:
selecting the first item doesn't work. Lets try adding the option label to see if it is just that first field.
... *scratches head* ... selecting any item is causing problems now. As it has now decided on binding the "Id" value and now losing the object. This is turning into one of those get what you want at the wrong time scenarios.

Interesting. Adding in the option-label fixed the data bind issue, but broke how I was now expecting it. So now I need the data row value instead of a data field value.

Ok now quite confused. It is now selecting the object again.
Ive changed the editor to:

however the action of the dropdown has gone back to selecting the object over the Id

Can anyone describe what is going on with the dropdown. Static datasources seem to bind perfectly well, but ajax based data sources seem to be giving me the run around. It seems a little random now when it wants to select the Id or select the Object.

Any insight would be wonderful as I've spent far too long trying to get the dropdown to act consistently.

Thanks,
Matt

hello,
 who can tell me ,why the arrow just only one...please

When I preselect an item on the DropDownList using .search() method, the change event seems not to fire up after selecting first position. How can I fix that? 

I know this should be easy, but I'm having a hell of a time trying to get my remote data source working with templates. Can you give a quick example of how to bind a json datasource to a template (not inline)? Thanks!

I've tried all of the demos online, but none seem to work as I'd expect.

Hi kendo,

How to bind data  to grid control in server side . My application is not an MVC arch . We are using asp.net webforms .
I need to call WCF with input paramters .
 Samle code of calling service .

Hi,

I am trying to keep the checkboxes from the grid using a temporary buffer in javaScript,  like the Rosen example in the link:

http://www.kendoui.com/forums/ui/grid/grid-editing-issue-with-template-columns.aspx

But I am using Kendo MVC UI, with HTML Helpers, instead of pure HTML.
The problem is that the data-uid changes each time I change from page 1 to page n, and later on come back to page 1.
The data-uid is changing each time I change the page and come back to the same page, is there a way to make it fix ?

Best Regards,
Tito Morais

Hi

I have a simple razor page using the Listview

   @(Html.Kendo().ListView<MVCTicketSystem.ViewModels.TicketDetail>(Model)
          .Name("listView")
          .TagName("div")
          .ClientTemplateId("list-view-template")          
          .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
                                        .Model(model => model.Id("TicketEntryId"))                                        
                                        .PageSize(5)                                        
                                        .Create(create => create.Action("TicketDetail_Create", "Ticket").Data("TicketInfo"))
                                        .Read(read => read.Action("TicketDetail_Read", "Ticket").Data("TicketInfo"))
                                        .Update(update => update.Action("TicketDetail_Update", "Ticket"))
                                        .Destroy(destroy => destroy.Action("TicketDetail_Destroy", "Ticket"))                                        
                                        .Sort(f=>f.Add(p=>p.DetailDate).Descending())                                                                                                        
          )
          .Pageable()          
          .Editable())

The Create method works but the object is partially populated at the server side and I need to visualize this data when the object is added to the list. So I need to either trigger a refresh of the current page or of the added object or something simular after the create.

I've searched the forum but can't find an answer to this problem which is strange as I guess everyone needs this kind of behavior.

best regards

Hi I've got a grid and one of the columns is bound ta boolean value. I would like to format it to something else other than true and false (On / Off for instance), and i realize I don't know how to do that. With a format field inside the columns property? How would such a format look like? Thanks in advance!
