Nested values trigger events more than once

[Thomas]

The viewmodel's 'change' (and possibly other events) trigger more than once if a nested value is changed. The event appears to be triggered once per nested level. So changing 'nested.value' triggers twice and changing 'very.deeply.nested.value' triggers four times.

I prepared a very simple example at http://jsfiddle.net/eMATB

Am I doing it wrong or is it a kendo bug?

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for getting in touch with us.

The behaviour you described is expected. Changing the nested field will trigger the change event of its parent observable object which is caught by the change event handler of the View-Model.
If you want to listen for the change of a specific field, you may hook up to the change event of it's parent. As an example:

viewModel.very.deeply.nested.bind("change", function(e) {
    //do stuff
});

I hope this information will help.

Kind regards,
