Weird behavior of kendoRating

[Boris]

Hello everyone,

pretty strange: when I initialize a kendoRating-Widget with {min:1 , max:5} I get five stars, when I initialize with a minimum of 0 instead, I get *six* stars. This does not make any sense to me....

Any thoughts?

Hello Boris,

The min property represents the value from which the Rating items will be rendered. If you set it to 0 the first star value will be 0, the second 1, and so on up until the max value of 5 and so you will have 6 stars in total.

When, however, the min is 1 the first value star is one, and then the second is 2 and so and the 5th will be the max of 5. 

I hope this clarifies the situation.

Hello Nikolay,

in that case: How can I create a rating widget with 5 stars accepting values from 0 to 5?

Thanks in advance,

Boris

Hi Boris,

You can still create a Ratign with min: 1 and max 5 which will render 5 stars - the first will represent value 1, the second value 2, and so on. If no value is selected, however, the value of the Rating will be null.

The point is, even with setting a value of 0 is represented as a half star. A value of zero is not possible.

BTW, the widget will not display properly when initialized while invisible and made visible afterwards.

Hi Boris,

Can you please share a Dojo demo representing the problem?
