Turn off autocomplete on filter?

[Bob]

Hi, is there a direct way to turn off autocomplete on filter without having to use some sort template?  The hack work-around I'm playing around with at the moment is setting MinLength to a unrealistic amount so the autocomplete never fires off.

columns.Bound(m => m.UserName).Title("User Name").Width(115).Filterable(f => f.Cell(c => c.Operator("contains").ShowOperators(false).MinLength(5000)));

Cleaner work-around I'll go with is just setting filter to an empty datasource so it doesn't copy from grid's datasource.  Filter still works this way but I don't have to worry about autocomplete feature trying to re-hit grid datasource when I don't want it to.

columns.Bound(m => m.UserName).Title("User Name").Width(115).Filterable(f => f.Cell(c => c.Operator("contains").ShowOperators(false).BindTo(Enumerable.Empty<string>())));

Hello Bob,

Both workarounds should work and there is nothing else we could suggest except using a Template function.

How can we achieve this in kendo ui grid?

Hello ajeet,

In case you are not using the ASP.NET MVC wrappers, then I would suggest using the columns.filterable.ui function to manually initialize the widget used for filtering. This would allow you to configured them as needed.
