Selected Row after Reload?

[Robert Madrian]

Hi,

what's the best and easiest way to save the selected row, make a refresh/reload and select the row again?

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
        // here I want to save the selected row/id (in a variable?)
        grid.dataSource.read();
        // re-select the previous "saved" row

Hello,

You can use the dataBound event and select the row with the select method.

Hi,

but how to do this - there are many postings with different Solutions how to select a row (uid, id...)?

if you look at my Code sample above, before the "read" I want to save the current selection, then make a reload , and then select

the previous saved selection...

Hi Kiril,
Thanks for your solution, but with that solution I have to loop through all items in every Change Event to save the selected item and also on the dataBound Event to (re)select the item (slow maybe a performance problem?).
In my grid I have only single selection; so is this the only possible solution or is there a for singe selection without Looping through all items?

found it

var grid = $("#grdFachgruppenzugehörigkeit").data("kendoGrid");
var row = grid.select();
grid.dataSource.read();
grid.select(row);

sorry for the last post - after testing this dosn't work :-(

Hi,

If you have single selection, then persists just the single item:

Hi, thanks for the Solutions...

this works with models which have a one Primary key (id) - is this not possible with Composite keys or is it necessary to build a single id in the model?

Hi,

Just use any unique field from the model, to persist the item.

Good day this same case in kendo grid MVC, how would it be?

[Anton Mironov]

Hello Jairo,

In order to achieve the desired behavior, I would recommend using the "persistSelection" property of the Kendo UI Grid. This approach will keep the selected row/s out of the box.

Give a try to the persistSelection property and let me know if this is the expected behavior.
