Pop up Resource OptionLabel

[Liu]

Hi there,

I have a scheduler that loads resource entries from a database.  When creating an appointment, these resources appears as a dropdownlist in the standard pop up screen.  However, the first entry in the dropdownlist is "None".  Is there a way to replace this with your own text eg "-- Select--" as I am not aware of any means to replace this optionlabel since resources are loaded from the database.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Li Yeo

Hi Liu,


To be able to modify this message you should define custom editor template (demo here) for the scheduler and change the option in the dropDownList used for editing the resource:

<div data-container-for="RoomID" class="k-edit-field">
    <input id="RoomID" name="RoomID" style="width: 200px" type="text"
        data-bind="value:RoomID"
        data-val="true"
        data-val-number="The field RoomID must be a number."
        data-source='[{"text":"Meeting Room 101","value":1},{"text":"Meeting Room 201","value":2}]'
        data-text-field="text"
        data-value-field="value"
        data-value-primitive="true"
        data-option-label="-- Select --"
        data-role="dropdownlist" />
</div>
