Is there a way to turn off a widget once it has been applied?

So if I have a case like: 

$(this).kendoGrid(...)

I need to turn it off for a certain case. Is that possible?

Hi Jonathan,

If I understand you correctly you are talking about a dispose mechanism, which will remove the widget from the page. Currently it is not available out-of-the-box, we may include it in the future.

What you can do now is unbind all existing event handlers from all elements of a widget and then remove it from the DOM. In some causes you may want to unwrap a widget element from its additionally added parents, e.g. as is the case with ComboBoxes and DatePickers.
