Basically, I need to be able to have a grid that manages a heterogeneous collection of two different kinds of objects. To give you some context, I need to be able to handle contact information for both individuals and groups. While they share most of their info, they differ in that individuals have both a first name and last name, while a group has only one name. So I am faced with the problem of how to handle editing for both types of objects in the same grid. 

Is that enough information, or do you need more? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this tricky problem?

Thanks. 

Hi,

I am looking to a MCV example for kendo Grid where I can have Paging Sorting and Filtering on server side.
I have implemented the filtering option on server side in my code Here is my Code

/// On Server 
public class GridCommand
    {
        public FilterExpression Filter { get; set; }       
    }


    public class FilterExpression
    {
        public string Logic { get; set; }
        public IEnumerable<GridFilter> Filters { get; set; }
    }


    public class GridFilter
    {
        public string Operator { get; set; }
        public string Field { get; set; }
        public string Value { get; set; }
    }

public ActionResult GetContracts(GridCommand command)
        {
//Some Code
            return Json(list, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);            
        }


////On Client
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
                        dataSource: {
                            type: "jsonp",
                            transport: {
                                read: {
                                    url: "/Test/GetContracts"
                                },
                                parameterMap: function(options) {                       
                 var result = {};
                 if (options.filter) {
                     result["filter.logic"] = options.filter.logic;
                     var filters = options.filter.filters;
 
                     for (var idx = 0, length = filters.length; idx < length; idx++) {                               
                         result["filter.filters[" + idx + "].operator"] = filters[idx].operator;
                         result["filter.filters[" + idx + "].field"] = filters[idx].field;
                         result["filter.filters[" + idx + "].value"] = filters[idx].value;                               
                     }                          
                 }                       
                 return result;
             }
         
                            },
                            schema: {
                                model: {
                                    fields: {
                                        AccountName: { type: "string" },
                                    AccountNumber: { type: "string" },
                                        ContractName: { type: "string" },
                                        ContractNumber: { type: "string" },
                                        ContractProductType: { type: "string" }
                                    }
                                }
                            },
                            pageSize: 10,
                            serverPaging: true,
                            serverFiltering: true,
                            serverSorting: true
                        },
                        filterable: true,                                               
                        pageable: true,
                        height: 400,                        
                        columns: [
                            { field: "AccountName", title: "Account Name", width: 150 },
                            { field: "AccountNumber", title: "Account Number", width: 150 },
                            { field: "ContractName", title: "ContractName", width: 150 },
                            { field: "ContractNumber", title: "Contract Number", width: 100 }
                        ]
                    });
                });

All I want when any action perfor in grid like sorting,Filtering or paging my "GridCommand command" have that option on server.

How can I modify  parameterMap: function(options) {    } function to send all option on server in GridCommand .

Is Kendo UI compatible with salesforce..???

I have the need to use a third-party widget (https://github.com/harvesthq/chosen/) in a data template but am unsure of how to instantiate it. It basically wraps a multi-select element, which is simple enough, but I need this auto-generated from my view model.

In Knockout, there's an "afterRender" event that I can use to call into my view model, passing the newly created HTML elements. Does anything like this exist in Kendo's MVVM framework?

For most of the Kendo widgets, I seem to be able to use the data-role attribute to handle widget creation.

Thanks

Is there a way to change the validation on a field in the datasource after the datasource has been bound to a grid?

These two approaches don't work although I see the properties get updated.

I've added a PanelBar to a view and have it working.  However, I am unable to get this panel bar to fill all available space, without hard codin pixel values, instead of just being as large as content within.

Hello, I am trying to get the Hello World example from http://www.kendoui.com/documentation/mobile/application/overview.aspx to work in a Visual Studio 2010 ASP.NET project.

i created a new aspx page called 'Mobile.aspx' and included all the Kendo js files and Scripts.
I tried to "aspify" the Hello World example, but when I run it via F5 (and it is displayed in Chrome) I just see the content from the default Site.master page, and just the text
Hello world! in the content area.  I see nothing that looks like a Kendo mobile app.

Here is my attempt at "aspification" of the Hello World app.  The Intellisense doesn't like the 'data-role' attribute, but I suspect my problems are much more basic.
--------------------------------------------------------------
<%@ Page  Title="Mobile" MasterPageFile="~/Site.master" Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Mobile.aspx.cs"
    Inherits="Mobile" %>

<asp:Content ID="HeadContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeadContent">
    <title>Kendo Mobile Test</title>
    <!-- Kendo UI Web styles-->
    <link href="styles/kendo.dataviz.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <!-- Kendo UI Web scripts-->
    <script src="js/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="js/kendo.dataviz.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>-->
    <script src="content/console.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="BodyContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent">

   <div data-role="view">
     <div data-role="header">Header</div>
     Hello world!
     <div data-role="footer">Footer</div>
   </div>

   <script type="text/javascript" src="js/kendo.mobile.application.min.js">
       var app = new kendo.mobile.Application(); //document.body is used by default
   </script>

</asp:Content>

Thank you,

Sample jsFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/latenightcoder/R4mKu/3/ 

Try selecting a new option and then canceling when the confirm dialog pops up. (This sets it back to the old value using the value method). Now, try selecting a new option and the change event doesn't trigger.

Hi,

I am trying to load a different page on the first,second, and third tab when a drop down list selected item changes.I followed the solution at (http://www.kendoui.com/forums/ui/tabstrip/change-url-of-tab-content.aspx) but the code does not seem to work.


The find method return value evaluates to an object which means it not null, but the call to .data('contentUrl',url) does not load the new URL content.

Thanks

Madani

Hi
Do you have any suggestions or best-practices for internationalization of the column names in the Kendo Grid?

I thought of creating a RESTservice that would give a JSON mapping for the language in question.
