I have a Kendo Grid that follows the Set Multi-Checkbox Filtering to Use contains instead of equalTo.
This works, I am able to filter the Grid on contains condition; but after filtering and opening the column filter again, the checkbox is not selected and shows unchecked.
I managed to fix the issue and persist the checkbox selection using the following approach:
columnMenuOpen: function(e){
if(e.sender.dataSource.filter()){
e.sender.dataSource.filter().filters.forEach(function(f){
if(f.field == "OrderID" || f.field == 'ShipCountry') {
var checkbox = e.container.find("input[value='"+f.value+"']");
if(checkbox[0] && !checkbox[0].checked){
e.container.find("input[value='"+f.value+"']").click()
}
}else if(f.filters[0].field == "OrderID" || f.filters[0].field == 'ShipCountry'){
var current = f.filters;
current.forEach(function(filter){
var checkbox2 = e.container.find("input[value='"+filter.value+"']");
if(checkbox2.length > 0 && !checkbox2[0].checked){
e.container.find("input[value='"+filter.value+"']").click()
}
})
}
})
}
},
Demonstrated also in the Dojo linked here - https://dojo.telerik.com/MBDcImcj.
I would like to see the functionality built-in, so I don`t need to customize the Grid behavior in its columnMenuOpen/filterMenuopen event hanldlers
