set dirty

[Robert]

Hi:
I'm populating a grid field from an on blur from a field in a tab strip.
How do I make the little red icon show in the grid signifying a dirty field so that my batch save will pick it up?

Thanks
Robert

Hello Robert,

You should be using set method of the model in order to mark the model as dirty and next time sync is triggered the model will be send to the update action.

Nikolay:

All I’m doing is:

function changeDescription() {
var grid = $("#grid4").data("kendoGrid");
selectedRow.set('Description', $("#description").val());

}

Now All I need to mark the field as dirty in the grid.
Is this doable?
If so do you have a quick example?
Thanks
Robert

Hello Robert,

The "dirty flag" is removed on very change of the DataSource which cause repaint of the Grid. There is a code-library demonstrating how to preserve the dirty indicator in incell editing and client operations.
