I am using a dropdownlist widget in an ajax form used to edit an object. When the form loads, I need to initialize the dropdown, set its datasource, and programmatically set the selected dropdown item based on two values (compound key). However,  the return statement in my ddAssignee.select(function()) does not execute, so nothing gets selected. I checked the contents of ddAssignee.dataSource.view() immediately after calling setDataSource() and it was empty, so I'm assuming this is why nothing gets selected. However, I have a separate button that is  used to select the dropdown item after the form loads ("Take It" button), which works fine. I'm just trying to figure out what is missing after setting the datasource that is causing the dataSource.view() to still be empty. 

UPDATE: I overlooked this info about select(): 

  • If the widget is not bound (e.g. autoBind is set to false), the select method will not pre-fetch the data before continuing with the selection and value setting (unlike the value method), and no item will be selected.

            However, setting autoBind to true still does not solve the problem.

I have attached:

-Screenshot of the edit form

-Edit form html with ajax form

-InitAssigneeDropdown() basic dropdown initialization

-GetAllAssigneesDataSource() returns the remote data for the dropdown via kendo.data.DataSource

- onEditTask function (executes when button is clicked to open the edit form - where issue happens)

- "Take It" button event (where select(function()) works successfully)

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Guys,

 

I have JQuery, KendoUI ASPNET MVC 5 which has two pages Index and View Details Page each has a dedicated js file and want to return to the previous Grid page number when a button in View Details is clicked:

  • In the first page I search Customer details which populates a table with Customer details { Name, Occupation and Title, a link to the view details} and has pageSize of 10 and multiple pages, depending on the customers stored.
  • What I want to achieve is to be able to return to the previous page results that was selected when and <a> to view details was clicked. For Instance I click <a> element on page number 20, I want to return to page 20 when I click save.

This is what I have tried so far:

  • I used the standard way of saving the page grid in a sessionStorage , retrieving the saved page and assigning it to the current page when save or cancel button is clicked, and assigning the saved grid page number using this method:    kendoGrid.dataSource.page(savedPage).
    • Results:  Returns to the first of results, irrespective of the current save page in the session storage.

    I then attempted to fix the issue by trying to set the page number using the jquery.

    ViewDetails.js

    $(document).ready(function () {

      $("button.isa-button-back, button.isa-button-save").click(function (e) {
        localStorage.setItem("depositButtonClicked", true);
      });
    });

    Index.js

    $(document).ready(function () {
      var filterNumber = $("span.k-state-selected").text();
      localStorage.setItem("filterNumber", filterNumber);
      if (localStorage.getItem("depositButtonClicked") === "true") {
        var storedValue = localStorage.getItem("filterNumber");
        $($("ul.k-pager-numbers li span.k-state-selected")).removeClass(
          "k-state-selected"
        );
        $("ul.k-pager-numbers li span")
          .filter(function () {
            return $(this).text() == parseInt(storedValue);
          })
          .addClass("k-state-selected");
        localStorage.removeItem("storedValue");
        localStorage.removeItem("depositButtonClicked");
      }
    });

    Results: Internal Server Error 500, when I click save or back button in the detailsPage

    Another way that I tried was to use this function in the  CustomerController's method:

             
        public ActionResult Back()
        {

            SetScriptModuleOptions("IndexModule", new { RestoreGrid = true });
            SetScriptModuleOptions("IsaSearchGrid", new { PreserveGridState = GridStatePreservation.All });

            return RedirectToAction("Index");
        }

Good afternoon,

I've been working on an effort to replace angularJS with Kendo for JQuery.  For the most part, there's been a solution for everything, but I'm running into a bit of a hiccup.  Is there some sort of equivalent I can use to replace the dir-pagination directive (which can be applied to things like TR or LI elements) that angular uses?

 

Thanks,

R-T

Hello,

i need some help regarding a problem with the context-menu. i am total new with the framework so maybe my question sounds a little stupid. sorry for that. 

When an entry in the context menu is clicked twice (kind of double-click) the app has a problem with the request that is still beeing executed by the first click. 

So how can i disable a context menu-entry inside a click handler. We are using typescript.

The handler starts with 

    private OnMenuItemSelect(event: ContextMenuSelectEvent): boolean {
        const item = $(event.item);
        const menuItemId = this.GetMenuItemIdFrom(item);
        if (menuItemId == null) {
            return true;
        }
        const menuItem = this.GetMenuItemById(menuItemId);
        if (menuItem == null) {
            return true;
        }

 

How can i access the clicked entry and disable it ?

Hi

On Kendo Grids we use the following template on a column to convert the string to a href link:

(e.g. workItemLink = <a href="/link/to/a/page.aspx?Key=ABC">ABC</a>

columns: [
	{
		field: "workItemLink",	
		template: "#=workItemLink#",
		title: "Work Item Ref",
		width: "110px"
	}
]

This doesn't seem to work on kendoGantt columns:

columns: [
	{ 
		field: "workItemLink",
		template: "#=workItemLink#",
		title: "Link"
}]

Are templates not supported in gantt charts? Is there another way to add a link the column part of the gantt?

Thanks
Ben

greetings.

I drew a line chart where the x-axis is the time value and the y-axis is the number.
How can I highlight (or select) the place corresponding to the time axis of the line chart by clicking the time text link outside the chart?

 

thank you for answer.

I have a parent kendo grid which has a detail kendo grid with a custom template. The custom detail template includes a tab strip with two tabs. Each tab includes a single kendo grid. I am using the default create and edit kendo grid buttons with some custom text. The controls on the parent grid seem to be working normally. When I press "Add New Row" a kendo editor pops up (pop up editing enabled) and in the background I can see that a new row is created. However, on two detail grids which are contained within each of the two tabs it seems that the pop up create and edit functionality is not working correctly. A window is popped up and the editing/creating actually works, but the grid acts strangely - mainly when I press the cancel button to exit out of an "edit" event for a particular item in one of the detail grid rows. 

I believe that I have included the appropriate amount of code to look into the issue. 

Thanks for the help! 

<div data-ng-controller="GridCtrl as gridCtrl"><script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="detail-grid-template"> <div class="detail-tab-strip"> <ul> <li class="k-active"> Grid One </li> <li class="k-active"> Grid Two </li> </ul> <div> <div class="grid-one"></div> </div> <div> <div class="grid-two"></div> </div> </div> </script><script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="grid-one-editor"> <div> <ul class="fieldlist"> <li> <label for="GridOneID">ID</label> <input type="text" class="k-input k-textbox full-width k-state-disabled" disabled="disabled" name="GridOneID" data-bind="value:GridOneID"> </li> <li> <label for="GridFieldOne">One</label> <input type="text" class="k-input k-textbox full-width" name="GridFieldOne" data-bind="value:GridFieldOne"> </li> <li> <label for="GridFieldTwo">Two</label> <input type="text" class="k-input k-textbox full-width" name="GridFieldTwo" data-bind="value:GridFieldTwo"> </li> <li> <label for="GridFieldThree">Three</label> <input type="text" class="k-input k-textbox full-width" name="GridFieldThree" data-bind="value:GridFieldThree"> </li> <li> <label for="GridFieldFour">Four</label> <select id="GridFieldFour" name="GridFieldFour" data-bind="value:GridFieldFour"></select> </li> <li> <label for="GridFieldFive">Five</label> <select id="GridFieldFive" name="GridFieldFive" data-bind="value:GridFieldFive"></select> </li> </ul> </div> </script></div>

When I export to Excel using the Export to Excel button in a kendo grid, the Excel file generated has the grid column titles as the Excel column headers.  Which is what I want.

When I export to Excel using the grid.exportSelectedToExcel(true), the generated file has the grid column fields as the Excel column headers.  I don't want the field names exposed.  How to prevent or change this?  Thank you.

Code:



Results for each type of export.  The top part of the image is the desired result.

Hi...

In the Syncfusion Gantt Control, it's very easy to show/set the task dependencies (see screenshot of task properties bellow).

 

How to do the same in the jQuery Gantt?

Thank you.

Hello,

Cascading Comboboxes do not clear and reset values correctly when Virtualization is enabled.

I mimicked the bug though Codepen.

Find it here and follow instructions to reproduce the bug. 

Thank you.
