Recently, I was attempting to get horizontal scrolling in KendoUI Grid to work properly. According to this post, all you had to do was "set the column widths and turn scrolling on." Wow, that would be great. Unfortunately, what happened was the scrollbar rendered OUTSIDE the grid, which is not what I wanted.

What I really wanted was for a horizontal scrollbar to be in the grid data area, and that the headers scroll in unison with the data area, without hiding the vertical scrollbar for the grid, and without scrolling the footer either. I was told that it couldn't be done, but I have the advantage of having done it before with DHTML back in the .NET 1.0 days. Besides, I don't like taking "no" for an answer.

After doing a little bit of digging, I discovered it would be significantly easier with KendoUI than it was with my product. Turns out, it only requires 5 lines of jQuery code.

I've created a jsFiddle to show how it works. Make sure your outer div has the overflow set to hidden, and don't follow the instinct to wire up the vertical scroll as well.

If you have any questions about this technique, please post them here.
HTH!

Does Kendo MVVM support pub-sub pattern ?

Is there a way to define\kickoff a sort on an array?

Hi,
How do I validate the autocomplete text-box has valid value form remote data and user has not typed anything in it using custom validator.

I am experiencing a strange issue with the alignment of my chart.  My development chart shows up as expected, however when I deploy to my test server it throws it off.   See attached screenshots.   Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Question:

I have a simple mobile app that consists of four tabStrip items which, in their respective views, contain scollable lists.  I can't wrap my head around navigating from a list-view item link to a content page.  The problem is when I click the link nothing happens --no transitions, zilch.  Here's my code:

// Sample TabStrip View containing a slightly modified list item link to a div
<div data-role="view" id="tabstrip-generes" data-title="Generes" data-layout="mobile-tabstrip">
<ul data-role="listview">
<li>
<a class='km-listview-link' src='#filmA'>Film A</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

// Desired view to navigate to
<div data-role="view" id="filmA">
Film Details, etc.  Basic content page; this single view will be repopulated with content depending upon what list-item link item is clicked then shown.
</div>

// Bottom Tab Strip
<div data-role="layout" data-id="mobile-tabstrip">
    <header data-role="header">
        <div data-role="navbar">
            <span data-role="view-title"></span>
            <a data-align="right" data-role="button" class="nav-button" href="#index">Index</a>
        </div>
    </header>

    <div data-role="footer">
        <div data-role="tabstrip">
            <a href="#tabstrip-home" data-icon="contacts">Home</a>
            <a href="#tabstrip-generes" data-icon="history">Generes</a>
            <a href="#tabstrip-search" data-icon="favorites">Search</a>
            <a href="#tabstrip-news" data-icon="settings">News</a>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Any help would be appreciated.

I have a problem with a dataSource for a kendo grid. The dataSource consumes JSON endpoints for CRUD operations on a remote DB.

The JSON endpoints that the dataSource is consuming contain different root elements for read versus the other methods. The root element for a read is "GetFooResult.RootResults". The root element for all other methods is "SubmitChangesResult". The endpoints are created by the .NET DomainServices JSON endpoint factory, so I don't necessarily have influence over what format they return.

The problem is that the dataSource is not able to parse the returned JSON for methods except read, since that is what the dataSource:schema:data element is based on. Therefore when I execute a create operation it does not recognize the returned JSON; each subsequent create continues to attempt to send all previous create attempts, which creates duplicate records in the DB.

Any idea how to specify different dataSource:schema:data elements for the various transport methods? There seems to be only one schema with one data element per datasource. Could I write code under parameterMap that sets this element depending on the transport method?

Thanks,
David

Hi
I'm trying to use mvvm and templates to produce a grid with column totals. A fairly simple scenario I think. I can get the grid to render and the column footer to show. However, I no longer have the ability to edit the grid cells (due to the row template that I am using). What can I do to make the rows function as if I was not using the template, and binding the products list to the table instead. Or can I just bind to the table and somehow have a custom footer that I can use to bind to my view-model with calculated totals. BTW I can just use a datasource and "sum" aggregate as I want to do some "math" to produce the total.
I have a jsfiddle of the scenario.

Thanks in advance

I'm trying to call an MVC controller action to populate my grid and I need to pass a parameter to it. However, my breakpoint in the action isn't getting hit. Am I doing something wrong here? I can't tell if my param is making it through since my breakpoint isn't getting hit. Do I need to set up a route for this call?

Action:

[HttpGet]
public JsonResult GetSalesHistory(string id)
{
    List<Sales> sales = PestsLogic.GetSalesById(5);
    return Json(new { data = sales, total = sales.Count }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
JavaScript code:

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#grid").kendoGrid({
        dataSource: {
            type: "json",
            transport: {
                read: {
                    url: "Sales/GetSalesHistory",
                    dataType: "json",
                    type: "GET",
                    contentType: "application/json; charset=1-8",
                    data: { id: "@ViewBag.CustomerEstimateKey" }
                }
            },
            pageSize: 15,
            schema: {
                data: "data",
                total: "total"
            }
        },
        pageable: true,
        sortable: true
    });
</script>
