I am using the built in functionality of Kendo Grid to export the grid data in pdf and excel http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/pdf-export. It is working fine for me. I want to customize the data that is exported i.e. add some additional columns and remove some of the columns of grid. Is there any way to customize the export data using templates or some other feature.
Thanks in advance.
You have two options:
Define a second grid with the columns that you want to export to PDF and when asked to export actually export the second. Both grids should share the datasource so filtering, orders... will be shared.
Intercept pdfExport event that is fired before the PDF is generated and hide/show the columns using showColumn and hideColumn methods.
The following code shows second approach (despite I -personally- prefer first). You will see that before clicking on export button you see EmployeeID but the PDF does not contain this column but includes Country.
$(document).ready(function() {
kendo.pdf.defineFont({
"DejaVu Sans" : "http://cdn.kendostatic.com/2014.3.1314/styles/fonts/DejaVu/DejaVuSans.ttf",
"DejaVu Sans|Bold" : "http://cdn.kendostatic.com/2014.3.1314/styles/fonts/DejaVu/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf",

I have a Kendo UI grid which may have many columns and so I have enabled horizontal scrolling to allow all the columns to be shown.
I need to be able to re-order the columns and am using the Drag and Drop functionality to do so.
This works fine the first time as the selected column can be dragged to end and the grid auto scrolls but once dropped the auto scrolling no longer works for any other column I drag.
I have searched the Kendo documentation & forum and have not found an answer to this problem.

Does any body have any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks
To clarify you meant horizontal scrolling no longer works? When I used Kendo's demo the vertical scrolling seemed to working after the drag and drop reordering. It sounds like you may have found a bug and you should submit to a support ticket to Telerik to see if they have a fix for it.
If you could post your code that would be helpful as well. It appears you just posted the Kendo Demo code which does not really help me fix what is wrong with your code.
To get row information of currently selected row we can do this
var current = e.sender.dataItem(e.sender.select());
But how to get the same when i click on Edit button?
I tried $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").dataItem($(e.sender).closest("tr")); it didnt work.
EDIT
I tried ways as suggested on the answers below, but its still giving me null.
in the screenshot the commented code doesn't work either

If you use the edit function in the grid, you can access the data item attributes which is in edit mode using:
var grid = $("#yourGrid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: yourGridDatasource,
...
edit: function (e) {
var attribute = e.sender.dataItem(e.container).attributeName;
// or simply
var attribute2 = e.model.attributeName;
}
});
You should use e.container instead of e.sender, like this:
$("#grid").data("kendoGrid").dataItem($(e.container).closest("tr"))
Update to make it work with a popup
If you are using a popup editor, then the container will be the popup itself and the above will not work.
In that case, you can use the uid of the row to locate it within the table:
var row = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").tbody.find("tr[data-uid='" + e.model.uid + "']");
If you do not need a reference to the actual row, but only the data item, then you can simply use e.model. I have created a dojo with your code and if you check the console after you click "edit", you will see that there is no difference: http://dojo.telerik.com/iqAPO
var gridDataById= $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
//Getting selected row
var selectedRow = gridDataById.dataItem(gridDataById.select());
console.log(selectedRow);
I am struggling to get a custom edit command link working for kendo ui grid. Say I have following grid
<div id="request-grid" style="height: 400px;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#request-grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: dataSource,
columns: [{
field: "Id", title: "Id", width: 20
}, {
field: "FromName", title: "Req Name", width: 150
....
}, {
command: [{ name: "edit", template: kendo.template('#Html.ActionLink("Edit","_SoftwareRequestEdit","SoftwareRequest",new {id = "#= Id #"}, null)') }]
}],
});
</script>
I have used the code above for the edit link, but I don't remember the specifics. I have been scratching my head for the correct syntax for 2 hours now and still couldn't figure out. The above edit command template generates following link
Edit
whereas I was expecting this
Edit
for grid row with Id equal to 3
Any ideas how to correctly generate edit links with correct Id values
Remove kendo.template() from the definition of the template, KendoUI already knows that it has to be a template so it expects a string and not a kendo.template` object. See documentation and examples in their documentation here.
Example:
<div id="grid"></div>
<script>
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
columns: [ {
field: "name",
template: "<strong>#: name # </strong>"
}],
dataSource: [ { name: "Jane Doe" }, { name: "John Doe" } ]
});
</script>
I need help using a Kendo UI list view which lives within a grid row detail template.
here is something I have done so far.
<div id="grid">
</div>
<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="gridDetailTemplate">
<div class='grid-edit'>
<div class='edit-list'></div>
</div>
</script>
<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="editItemtemplate">
<div class='edit-Item'>
#if(Type=='string'){#
<ul><li><b>#:Name#</b></li><li><input class='inputString' value='#:DataVal()#'/></li></ul>
#}else if(Type=='number'){#
<ul><li><b>#:Name#</b></li><li><input class='inputNumber' data-role='numerictextbox' data-type='number' value='#:DataVal()#'/></li></ul>
#}else if(Type=='date'){#
<ul><li><b>#:Name#</b></li><li><input class='inputDate' data-role='datepicker' value='#:kendo.toString(DataVal(),'MM/dd/yyyy')#'/></li></ul>
#}else if(Type=='boolean'){Name #<input type='checkbox'/>
#}#
</div>
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$.get("http://localhost:4916/DataAttribute", function (data, status) {
var selFields = new Object();
$.each(data, function (index, elem) {
selFields[elem.Name] = new Object();
selFields[elem.Name]["type"] = elem.Type;
});
$("#grid").kendoGrid({

function detailInit(e) {
$.get("http://localhost:4916/DataAttribute", function (data, status) {
var detailRow = e.detailRow;
detailRow.find(".edit-list").kendoListView({

DataVal: function () {
switch (this.get("Type")) {
case "number"

if (e.data[this.get("Name")])
return e.data[this.get("Name")];
else
return '';
}
}
}
},
template: kendo.template($("#editItemtemplate").html())
});
});
}
</script>
My code gets dynamic field list and binds it to the data source for grid.
Then, in the detailInit event, I find the div within row detail and convert it into kendo UI list, for which the template have been created.
Now, when I use data-bind="value: DataVal()" ,it doesn't pick up the values of List data source. It works the way I have done i.e. value="#: DataVal() #". But, data-role does not convert the fields to specified types which are datepicker and numericinput in my case.
I believe that data-role not being used is caused due to same issue as data-bind not being read.
Can anyone help me out with this? Also, feel free to suggest any alternate ways and general code improvements. I am an ASP.NET developer and usually don't work on pure html and javascript.
PS: I would be happy to provide the context on what I am trying to achieve here if anyone is interested.
Thanks in advance.
If you can rig up a jsFiddle or jsBin example that would help debug the issue.
However, try removing the parenthesis:
data-bind="value: DataVal"
Kendo should detect that DataVal is a function and call it on its own.
I experienced a similar situation in a listview template. I created a JSFiddle to demonstrate:
http://jsfiddle.net/zacharydl/7L3SL/
Oddly, the solution is to wrap the contents of the template in a div. It looks like your template already has this, so YMMV.
<div id="example">
<div data-role="listview" data-template="template" data-bind="source: array"></div>
</div>
<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="template">
<!--<div>-->
<div>method 1: #:field#</div>
<div>method 2: <span data-bind="text: field"></span></div>
<input data-role="datepicker" />
<!--</div>-->
</script>
var model = kendo.observable({
array: [
{ field: 'A'},
{ field: 'B'}
]
});
kendo.bind($('#example'), model);
I don't see any examples of kendo grid with kendo tabstrips being done. Is that not possible?
As I tried kendo-tabstrip demo and kendo-grid demo. Both are working cool separately, but when I merge the code tabstrips are not showing properly.
I am successfully using a kendo grid inside of a tabstrip. The grid would not display inside of a tab unless I removed "<!DOCTYPE html>". If the DOCTYPE was present then the tab was always blank. I am not sure why that fixed the issue. What exactly do you mean by "not showing properly"?
Edit: I think my issue was actually caused when we had a splitter and grid inside of a tabstrip.
I was successful at adding a kendo grid inside a kendo tabstrip. After bringing in the required js files jquery-3.2.1/kendo.all.min.js, and the required css files kendo.common-bootstrap.min.css/kendo.black.min.css.
