Preventing Filter Row from Autoformatting on Blur

[The Bearded One]

Steps to reproduce...

1. Any old datagrid with a filter row enabled

2. Go to any numeric columns and enter a value in the filter field

3. Blur the field (tab out or click anywhere) the value

4. The value entered in the filter column is reformatted.

I was trying to filter my grid with a record number of 571339. It is just an int in my view model -- not formatted as Currency. When I tab out of the grid, it reformats it to 571,339.00. It's not breaking anything, but it's annoying one of my vocal customers.

 

How can I initialize my grid in MVC to not reformat numeric values to currency?

Hello,

In order to achieve this you can define a template for the filter cell. Check out the following dojo example that illustrates the approach:

Thanks!

 

Your response got me down the trail I needed. I am initializing my grid in MVC so I ended up with this...

columns.Bound(u => u.BemsId).Filterable(filter => filter.Cell(u => u.Template("IntegerFilter")));

 

and then

 

        function IntegerFilter(args) {
            args.element.kendoNumericTextBox({ format: "n0", decimals: 0, spinners: false });
        }
