Why you not create a radio button list and a checkbox list with model binding
Not sure if this problem is specific to the MVC wrappers or not, but right now, you can not access a kendo control from document.ready unless your code is output after the control is rendered. That is counter intuitive to the way document.ready is generally used - it should not matter where the code lives on the page. The solution I would like to suggest is to add init events to the controls, so code can be run when the widget loads on the page, without the order of code mattering on the page. Here is a related support ticket for reference: http://www.kendoui.com/account/support-tickets/reply-thread.aspx?threadid=611076
For example if you use grid in Client mode it's use case sensitive sorting without any post-back to server which is real cool. But in situation when you need to export grid data to(csv, pdf...) you can pass sorting options from grid to server, collect all data from DB and create exported document. BUT for example SQL server use case insensitive default sorting, so exported documen will not have same data order like grid.
Currently it is not possible to define a DataSource using ASP.NET MVC wrappers and assign the same shared DataSource to a Grid and Chart control (common scenario for reports where you want to visualize the data in a small chart above the grid). The only solution currently is to make two separate calls to the server (and define the two identical data sources twice) which is fairly expensive in a reporting scenario where there's more data that needs to travel across the wire sometimes instead of simple CRUD/transactional scenarios...
Add some demos/samples for using MVC with VB particularly where Lambdas are involved in the C# example which stops them being converted to VB using the online conversion tools.
We want to generate PDF files with the grid configuration, i.e. with aggregates, grouping and basic formatting options; expecting can generate an appearence very close how the grid are presented. Thanks.
Option to change button type (like in Telerik MVC) columns.Command(commands => { commands.Edit().ButtonType(GridButtonType.Image); commands.Delete().ButtonType(GridButtonType.Image); })
Implement the ability to define custom commands in the grid command in ajax binding.
I think you should seriously consider a .Placeholder option for the Datapicker controls. Other controls like the ComboBox have this and it is a great pity that it is not available for the DatePicker as well. It would be nice to see something like "Please enter your birthday"
Support drag and drop in the MVC Wrapper for the Kendo Grid. 1. Be able to drag and drop rows within the same grid to change the order of the rows. 2. Be able to drag and drop rows from one grid to another. 3. Support multi-selectiong of rows and dragging and dropping them 4. Customize drag and drop events for the grid. Example: When dragging rows from one grid to another, be able to modify the drop functionality.
Add ASP.NET MVC Wrappers to Nugget to import kendoui easily into new projects.
Hello, double click on tabStrip tab in loadContentFrom mode open loadContentFrom parameter in new page. this is a bug.
When using the LoadContentFrom() in a tab inside a Tabstrip, the tab content does not get loaded until it become visible. Please consider making the Kendo Window behave like the TabStrip when a window use the LoadContentFrom() method, loading the content only when it become visible.
Please consider adding a short-hand method to set the id of form element widgets such as: Html.Kendo().DatePicker().Name("StartDate").Id("FormA_StartDate"); The code above looks a lot cleaner and more fluent and the one below. Html.Kendo().DatePicker().Name("StartDate").HtmlAttributes( new { id = "FormA_StartDate"} ); This really comes in handy when building large single page application (SPA) where many entry forms are loaded onto a single page. Manually setting the Id property for widget elements help avoid potential html elements' id conflicts when we have Kendo form widgets of the same name.
Since the new grid only works with kendo validator, it is important to support all the same jquery validate features that work seamlessly with MVC. The old telerik grid worked just fine with remote validation.
I would like the possibility to use client details templates for server bound grids (and maybe other components). That is - the main grid should be fully loaded when the page loads (without ajax requests), but the details should be loaded on demand (when clicking the > icon) via ajax.
Right now we when using both server and client binding have to write all templates (and details templates) twice, I really hope you can find a way to configure them the same way. Maybe the #= syntax can be parsed on the server or maybe, even better, the t => t.Column syntax could be translated to client code?
Currently when a grid is bound to a model with related objects and properties via JSON, the grid will only parse the top level object types and treat and related properties as generic objects hence dates are not dates anymore, etc. Please consider having the grids parse related object properties and data types so there isn't a need for flattened ViewModels in order to properly visualize related data and be able to filter and sort it correctly.
