We are trying to activate the ModalView element to cover the whole page from a button in one of the SplitView panes. If we include the modal view div in the same pane as the button, the modal view works but only covers that pane. If we try moving the modal view div outside the pane, we get an 'openFor' undefined error. If we try to add the modal view div into the split view panel, we get a formatting/layout error. How can we cover the whole page with the modal view with a button in a split view?

transitions: false doesn't work?

I have my gauge bound with MVVM, and when I change the value the gauge animates...

Even though I tell it not to

$("#phase-gauge").kendoRadialGauge({

transitions: false,

pointer: {

color: "#FF5770"

},

scale: {

min: 1,

max: 7,

majorUnit: 1

}

});

Validation tooltip shows the single quote html-encoded.

Hello,

I have a single quote in my required field validation message (e.g. Required(ErrorMessage="The field 'xxx' is required.") ). When the validation fails, the tooltip will show "The field 'xxx' is required". Is this a bug or is there a way to get around it? Although this happens on the MVC wrapper, I've seen this issue on the regular kendo UI as well (I saw this issue on my custom validator back then). Hopefully this is the right place to post the issue.

Thanks,
Ben

Rebinding datasource when opening Dropdownlist

I have a project where I have several (4) linked, but not cascading DropDownLists.

If a value is selected in DropDownList1 I want the available items in dropdown 2 ,3 and 4 to be changed

If a value is selected for DropDownList2, the values for DropDownList3 and DropDownList4 will be different.

Any DropDownList can be selected without selecting a DropDownList further up the hierarchy.

I can get the initial values of the DropDownLists loading correctly, however when a dropdown list is opened, I need to check the values of the other dropdowns to determine the values in the selected box.

My question is:
Can I rebind a dropdownlist (during the open event) to an updated datasource, and how is it best to trigger this datasource update with new data parameters from all of the relevant selected dropdownlists.?

I have spent *some* time going through the forums and documentation , but cannot find anything really relevent to what I require.

Thanks
Shane

Rules are global?

Is there a way to target a rule to a specific control?

Like if I have 1 date picker and 4 radiobuttons...

So all the rules run for every control, can I not just have a rule target the date picker, and the other target the radiobuttons (without needing to do if statement checks on each rule)

setting Kendo grid column template in run time

Hi

I am new to Java script and to web development. I have a web application demo (MVC 3) and I use the Kendo UI grid control.
I display numeric data in the grid and the default format is 4 numbers after the decimal point.

I would like to allow the user to select the number of numbers after the decimal point and to update the grid column template.

i.e 123.1234 in the grid will become 123.12 if the user selected 2 from the combo box.

Is that possible?

thanks.

MVVM and Animations

I have a relatively complex single-page application that is using MVVM binding and templates for a grid-like list. I'd like to animate the Addition and Deletion of rows from this structure but the default (it seems) for MVVM it to not animate anything.

Any ideas how I can enable this?

I'm using a row-template and binding to a collection of row data in MVVM.

Z-Index of Controls in Window in IE8

According to this thread the issue of dropdowns' z-index being lower than the window has been corrected, but I'm still having this exact problem in IE8. It works fine in IE9. Unfortunately, where my page will be used IE8 is the standard.
http://www.kendoui.com/forums/ui/window/window-z-index-behaviour-issues.aspx

I've also tried the new beta code to see if maybe it has been corrected, but the problem still exists. Has anyone had this issue with IE8 and found a way to work around it? or can you suggest a way to force the dropdowns to be on top after the window is loaded?

AutoComplete doesn't work with textarea on IE8

AutoComplete works fine with a textarea in Chrome, but in IE8 it fails when it gets to this line in the AutoComplete init():
element[0].type = "text";

I added a try/catch block around that line, and that makes it work just fine in IE8.

Window only opens once in MVVM

Ok here's my window

<div id="edit-window" data-role="window" data-visible="false" data-modal="true" data-iframe="true" data-resizable="false" data-minWidth="600px">

</div>

(width is ignored btw, but thats besides the point)

So I then have a click event, based on a template item which calls this

onRunVerb: function (verb) {

    var

window = $("#edit-window").data("kendoWindow");

window.title(verb.data.text);

window.content("<div class='loading''>Loading...</div>");

window.refresh(verb.data.url);

window.center().open();

}

Works great...until I close the window, then click on another button which calls this again...

window is undefined

window.title(verb.data.text);

Ideas?...does it destroy itself on close or something?
