Need a total cell

[Kathryn]

I am trying to have a total cell at the end of each row as described in post http://www.kendoui.com/forums/permalink/ZYoSEK-x_keMMJfogOHsSw

The suggestion listed works great.  However, as the post mentions, the totals don't get updated in real time (you need to sort or filter or do something else in order for the total field to get updated).  Is there a work around for this?  Thanks....

Hi Kathryn,


In order to update the total column in real time, when a change is made in some of the other columns, you could bind to the save event of the Grid and update the model value for the column. For your convenience I prepared the following JS Bin example, which demonstrates this.

Please let me know if this was the information that you were looking for.

OK, I've tried implementing the code you shared into my project and I think I'm VERY close but it's still not updating the total in my model.  You can see it at...

Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks...

I finally figured out the issue.  In my schema, my field was marked editable: false since I didn't want the user to be able to edit the value, but that also prevents the value from being edited programmatically.  I removed the editable: false and then added the editor function to the column and that will prevent the user from editing but the field can be updated programmatically.
