Possible to have cascading drop down lists from different editor files?

[Ian]

Hi

I want to have cascading drop down lists that are specified in different editor files and was wondering whether this was possible? So far I have not been able to get it working.

 --- ItemTypeEditor.cshtml

@using Kendo.Mvc.UI;
@model DataModels.Picking.PickingAssignmentItemType

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
        .Name("Type")
        .DataTextField("Description")
        .DataValueField("TypeCode")
        .DataSource(source => source
            .Read("GetAssignmentTypes", "Picking")
            .ServerFiltering(true)
        )
)

 -- ParentItemEditor.cshtml

@using Kendo.Mvc.UI;
@model DataModels.Picking.PickingAssignmentItemViewModel

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
        .Name("ParentItem")
        .DataTextField("ItemId")
        .DataValueField("ItemId")
        .DataSource(source =>
        {
            source.Read(read =>
            {
                read.Action("GetAssignmentKits", "Picking")
                    .Data("filterTypes");
            })
            .ServerFiltering(true);
        })
        .CascadeFrom("Type")
)

<script>
    function filterTypes() {
        return {
            Type: $("#Type").val()
        };
    }
</script>

Can anyone see anything wrong with the above? Or determine whether a cascade is even possible across two different files?
