New kendo grid row filter mode: drop down list with object collection as data source does not work

[Markus]

Hi,

I'm currently evaluating the new kendo grid Row filter mode.

In an example linked bellow I try to use a drop down list filter but it fails to work in case the drop down list has an objects collection as a data source.

See: http://jsbin.com/guyot/1/edit 

In case the data is just an array of strings it works.

Could you please assist? Am I defining something wrong or is it a bug?

Thanks

Hello Markus,

The value of the dropdownlist is not specified to be the dataValueField- and because of this the value becomes the whole item from the array. You need to enable the valuePrimitive option of the DropDownList to make it work.
