We are trying to do data binding with multiple levels of function calls in order to tidy our base model (not having all of our functions related to some requirements in our model root's)

So let says our model is as following (expressed in typescript for clarity) :

class MyModel extends kendo.data.ObservableObject {
    EnabledDate() { return false; }
}

and we have a the data-binding expressed as following :

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:EnabledDate"></div>

or (with parentheses)

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:EnabledDate()"></div>
Ok -> These both works perfectly, as expected the datepicker is disabled !

( But please note, strangely :

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:UnexistingEnabledDate()"></div>
 --> generate an error : TypeError: d.UnexistingEnabledDate is not a function

while

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:UnexistingEnabledDate"></div>
--> gives no error, but the widget is not disabled !
)


Now, if we want to tidy our model and group "Enabled/Disabled" in a specialized class, let say :

class MySpecializedModel extends kendo.data.ObservableObject {
    EnabledDate() { return false; }
}
our model becomes :

class MyModel extends kendo.data.ObservableObject {
    private _specializedInstance: MySpecializedModel;

    GetSpecializedInstance():MySpecializedModel {
         if (this._specializedInstance == undefined) {
             this._specializedInstance = new MySpecializedModel();   
         }
         return this._specializedInstance;
    }
}

and our data-bind attribute in markup has to be modified, but we can't find a working way of accessing EnabledDate via GetSpecializedInstance.

We tried the following :
<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:GetSpecializedInstance.EnabledDate"></div>
--> no javascript errors, but the binding is not working (widget not disabled as expected)
<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:GetSpecializedInstance().EnabledDate"></div>
--> TypeError: e.bind is not a function
<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:GetSpecializedInstance().EnabledDate()"></div>
--> no javascript errors and correctly binded, but infinite loop (too much recursion) occurs later on, while it does not occur with the "EnabledDate" working binding scheme

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:GetSpecializedInstance.EnabledDate()"></div>
--> TypeError: (intermediate value).EnabledDate is not a function

We also tried accessing SpecializedInstance as a getter property instead of a function by modifying MyModel class with the following code :
class MyModel extends kendo.data.ObservableObject {
    private _specializedInstance: MySpecializedModel;

    get SpecializedInstance(): MySpecializedModel{
        if (this._specializedInstance == undefined) {
             this._specializedInstance = new MySpecializedModel();  
         }
         return this._specializedInstance;
    };
    set SpecializedInstance(value: MySpecializedModel) {
        this._specializedInstance= value;
    };
}

and the following markup gave the following errors :
<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:SpecializedInstance.EnabledDate"></div>
--> TypeError: e.bind is not a function

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:SpecializedInstance().EnabledDate"></div>

--> TypeError: d.SpecializedInstance is not a function

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:SpecializedInstance().EnabledDate()"></div>
--> TypeError: d.SpecializedInstance is not a function

<div data-role="datepicker" data-bind="enabled:SpecializedInstance.EnabledDate()"></div>

--> no javascript errors and correctly binded, but infinite loop (too much recursion) occurs later on, while it does not occur with the "EnabledDate" working binding scheme


So, what is the correct syntax when binding with such multiple functions calls level ?

Thanks for your support !

If I remove the url property on the data item, behavior is normal.
I've got a jsFiddle that demonstrates the problem here. The last node, 'Carpets' has a url property and can't be dropped and won't fire the drag event.

We have an editable grid (angular) that's suffering badly with performance. Our customer reports editing grid cell becomes slower and slower and becomes unresponsive very quickly.

We tried to dig into the problem, and notice the angular watch # increases and digest cycle takes longer to execute as user edit each cell. We use angular expression in cell template, and attaches data-ng-model to the td's attribute. 

Below is demo we created that has similar but much simpler setup as our own grid. It you install Chrome extension AngularJS Batarang, you can use to monitor angular digest cycle time and watch #. You will notice these 2 numbers slowly and steadily increases over time.
https://plnkr.co/edit/s4nhIh?p=preview

It's not too bad of a increase in the above, but our own grid is much larger and much more complicated, and performance suffers badly.

Could you explain why is watch# and digest cycle time increases as I edit cell? It seems to be the <td> DOM is not recreated every time on user enter and exit a cell for edit. 

I am brand new to Kendo UI. I am curious if it is possible to use a MobileSwitch widget on a Grid to represent a boolean value.  Can we configure the columns of the grid to show another Kendo UI widget?

Where should I go to understand how to build Views that have nested widgets?

Good day!

I know that this is asked frequently, but do you have any options/config to set category labels/axis to auto-wrap?

I know that you can render "\n" as part of the label to have a line break, but in order to do that we have to set a defined length on where to do the line break.

We're making the chart responsive as possible and it will be awkward to look at a chart with a wrapped label when there's a lot of space left.

 

Thanks!

Hi, 

At the minute when I create a new event the default start/end is in 30 minute increments (see screen shot). Is it possible to set the default to start/end to a 60 minute increment?   

Looking in the dojo (http://dojo.telerik.com/anIFa), I made a minor change to the grid to turn on sortable columns.

When this happens, if you sort a column and then also group it, the sort arrows can be contradictory in the column header / group header (see attached).

Is this something that can be overcome?

Hi,

I have a SPA running in which a users logs on, do all kind of things (showing grids, lists, editing data etc.) against some webservices.

When the user logs off, another user can log on.

When the new user comes on a grid/list/etc. where no data is available on the server, or an error occurs, or even while the data is loading from the server (during the 'wait-cursor-screen') the old data of the previous user is shown! Not a good thing :)

 

So at first I was hoping to build a class in which all datasources can be registered and on logoff I can just set all the data in the datasources to [].

 

Nice idea but since one cannot overload the init function of the kendo.data.DataSource we need to find another way.

 

On each fetch() might be an idea but really unwanted because it means that all fetch functions must be overloaded and for each fetch we must check if the datasource is already registered etc.etc. Takes too much time, so again we need another way..

At this moment I'm a bit of ideas and am under the impression I must be missing something really obvious..

 

Any ideas? Anybody?

 

Best regards,

Hi, Is it possible to have the footerTemplate call a function in the Angular controller?  So in the controller (using controllerAs) you have a function and the template looks something like:

 

 

where vm is the controller set using controllerAs and getTotal is the function in the controller.  I've tried #; and #= and I cant get it to find "vm", so it appears its not evaluated in the right scope, maybe there is a field in the scope which will get me to the controller?

Hi,

Is it possible to display all available items in autocomplete widget without changing the source code?

I’ve got something like this, that is an attempt to open the options when textfield receives focus, but it is not working.

 $("#myAutoComplete").kendoAutoComplete({
dataSource: ["Item1", "Item2"],
delay: 100,
minLength: 0
});

 $("#myAutoComplete").focus(function () {
$("#myAutoComplete").data("kendoAutoComplete").search("");
});

Thanks
Doug
