SubObjects (MetaFields + MetaKey) not displayed on client-binding

[OLIVER]

Hi there,

I really like the telerik ajax tools, but I have a slight problem now: the property value of a subobject is not displayed in the grid: Status.Shortcut. Pasting the json code (extracted by fiddler2) into a json viewser, looks ok.

Telerik-Version: v.2010.2.929.35

Even when creating a client side array, it doesn't display subobject's values.

Alerting the field says: ok - is there.


WHAT CAN I DO? Please help.

Thank you very much.

Client-Side DataBinding:

function UpdateGrid(rows) {
            clearError();
            var grid = $find("<%=gridTickets.ClientID %>");
            var mtv = grid.get_masterTableView();

            alert(rows[0].Status.Shortcut); //  <--WORKS GREAT!!!!

            mtv.set_dataSource(rows);
            mtv.dataBind();
            return;
        }

Page.aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="gridTickets" runat="server" >
    <MasterTableView DataKeyNames="Id">
        <Columns>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Id" HeaderText="Id" Display="false" />
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Status.Shortcut" HeaderText="Status" />
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Subject" HeaderText="Betreff" />
        </Columns>
    </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

Anybody?

Hello OLIVER,

I am afraid that RadGrid does not support client-side binding of nested properties. You can try handling OnRowDataBound event and populate the cells manually.

Best wishes,
