Loading for Ajax

[Derek]

Hi,

Was wondering if there is a Loader like the combobox, that could be displayed over the spinner part, while an Ajax call is made to fill in this field.

I thought that the following would work
kendo.ui.progress($("#txtNumericValueField"), true);

Hello Derek,

The Kendo UI NumericTextBox does not provide such an opportunity out-of-the-box, as it is not a data bound widget (does not have a dataSource), and is not designed to be bound to remote data.

However, you can use some custom logic to display a loading indicator over the widget's spinners that can be selected via their "k-select" class, and depending on the scenario the selector's specificity can be further increased either by the ".k-numeric-wrap" parent or some other container (like the editor template container in the following example). Then you can pass the respective spinner-container to the kendo.ui.progress() method for showing and hiding the loading indicator when appropriate:

http://dojo.telerik.com/obELE (click on some numeric cell to put it in editing mode)

I hope this helps.

Found out if the widget is by itself on a page, adding in .parent().find(.k-select) works.

kendo.ui.progress($("#txtNumericValueField").parent().find('.k-select'), true);
