Provide ID to dynamically generated cloned element - kendo-ui

I am dragging and dropping some element (with the help of Kendo UI) and generating the new element that are the clone element of draggable elements, my problem is that I want to provide new id to them? How can I do that?

Being droptargetOnDrop your drop event handler, you should do:
function droptargetOnDrop(e) {
var newEl = $(e.draggable.currentTarget).clone();
newEl.attr("id",kendo.guid());
e.dropTarget.append(newEl);
}

Hide child grid when adding new main item

I have a grid that has child grid for each item, when i add a new item to the main grid, there is a stub for the child (with the toolbar etc and an empty grid for the child), I would like to hide the child grid when adding new one, i know i need the edit event, i just dont know how to get reference to the detailgrid for the item that the row was just created for input.
edit event has e.sender, e.container, e.model, first 2 reference the main grid of course as the event is raised by the main grid
The required behavior is not supported out of the box, however you can for example attach click event handler to the expanding arrows in the Grid. In the event handler you can prevent the expanding if current model is new. Please check the example below:
//Change Employees with your grid name
//the grid should have model ID defined
$("#Employees table").on("click", ".k-hierarchy-cell a", function (e) {
dataItem = $("#Employees").data("kendoGrid").dataItem($(e.srcElement).closest("tr"));
//check if is new record
if (dataItem.isNew()) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
}
})
UPDATE (as requested): The above code should be executed in script tag (wrapped in document "ready" event handler) which is placed just after the Grid initialization code.

Set title and additional properties to kendo ui grid

I am using kendo ui grid to display data. I want to set title for the grid.Is there any way to set it.
Also I want to set some additional/custom property for grid which will help to identify the grid uniquely. Any custom property I can set to grid so I can get its value when required.
So in case if there are more instances on grid this will help.
Please suggest on this.
Iterating through all your tables can be done using:
$.each($(".k-grid"), function (idx, grid) {
// Do whatever you want to do with "grid"
...
});
If you want to add a title, might be something like:
$.each($(".k-grid"), function (idx, grid) {
$(grid).data("kendoGrid").wrapper.prepend('<div class="k-grid-header"><table><thead><tr><th class="k-header">Title</th></tr></thead></table></div>');
});
For setting a click event to the HTML img elements, you can do:
$("tr", ".k-grid").on("click", "img:first", function () {
// Here "this" is the "img" on which you clicked, finding the grid is:
var grid = $(this).closest(".k-grid").data("kendoGrid");
console.log("grid", grid);
// If you want to access the "id"
console.log("id", grid.element.attr("id"));
});
Once you click on the first image of each row what I do in the event handler is finding the closest HTML element with k-grid class (the grid): this is the HTML containing the grid.
If you want to get Kendo UI grid element the you need to use data("kendoGrid").
Simple and elegant.
In this JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/OnaBai/2qpT3/2/, if you click on "Add Titles" button you add a title to each table and if you click on "Add Handlers" and then in an image, you will get an alert with the id of the table that the image belongs to.
EDIT: If you want to iterate on every image that is in the first column, of every KendoUI grid on your document, you should do:
$.each($("td:first > img", ".k-grid table tbody > tr"), function (idx, elem) {
// "elem" is the image
console.log(idx, elem);
// associate event
$(elem).on("click", fnHandler);
});
I prefer to change the title like this:
$("#grid th[data-field=Field]").html("Title");

Unable to deselect the selected node in KendoUI tree view

I have a tree-like structure using Kendo UI tree view. Each node is displayed as a hyperlink and on clicking each one, a new kendotabstrip will be opened. My problem is if I select one node, the results are displayed fine in a new tab but if I close the newly opened tab and then select the same node then no new tab is opened since the node has already been selected. If I have to choose the same node, then I have to access another node and then come back to node.
I tried to deselect the selected item once the new tab is opened using the following snippet:
var treeview=$(#grpTree).data("KendoTreeView");
var selNode=treeview.select();
selNode.find("span.k-state-selected").removeClass("k-state-selected")
but the node is not getting deselected. Is there any other way to do it or have I missed out anything?
I know this post is a bit dated, but as Telerik is continually upgrading its components, I thought I'd put this here so that people can be aware of this change moving forward.
You can deselect all selected nodes with the following syntax:
var treeView = $("#treeView").data("kendoTreeView");
treeView.select($());
Source: Kendo UI Treeview Documentation for Select
Yes this is by design. If you want to attach a click handler which will be triggered each time (no matter if the node is already selected). You can attach a delegate event like the following:
$('#treeviewName').on('click','.k-item',function(e){
var clickedNode = $(this);
var treeViewClientObject = $(e.delegateTarget).data().kendoTreeView;
})
My code:
var treeview=$(#grpTree).data("KendoTreeView");
treeview.select(null);
This calls the change function always, so this can be another solution:
$("#favorite_tree").kendoTreeView({
change: function () {
if (this.dataItem(this.select())) {
var treeView = $("#calendar_tree").data("kendoTreeView");
treeView.select($());
}
}
}).data('kendoTreeView');
$("#calendar_tree").kendoTreeView({
change: function () {
if (this.dataItem(this.select())) {
var treeView = $("#favorite_tree").data("kendoTreeView");
treeView.select($());
}
}
}).data('kendoTreeView');

How to delete multiple rows in Kendo grid?

I have a kendo grid with first column as Checkboxes. I want to delete multiple rows using those check boxes. I am able to delete only single row at a time.
I tried adding
.Batch(true)
for the data source and below is my function for delete button outside the grid.
function deleteRule() {
var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
grid.select().each(function () {
grid.removeRow($(this));
});
}
Any suggestions please ?
Yo mate,
How exactly do you remove that one row? Why you use the select method?
Basically I would suggest you to create a delete button which executes the logic to delete the selected rows - I guess you are using a tempalte column with a checkbox inside. If you add a class to that checkbox you can easily select all the checkboxes inside of the grid. So lets say the name of the class for the checkbox is cool then you can execute the following logic in the delete button click handler:
function whenYourDeleteButtonIsClicked(){
var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
$('.cool:selected').each(function(){
grid.removeRow($(this).closest('tr'));
})
}
I hope you got the idea mate.
Good luck.
Here is what i use
works very well
$('#your-grid-id').data("kendoGrid").select().each(function () {
grid.dataSource.remove(grid.dataItem($(this).closest("tr")));
});

Titanium Mobile: reference UI elements with an ID?

How do you keep track of your UI elements in Titanium? Say you have a window with a TableView that has some Switches (on/off) in it and you'd like to reference the changed switch onchange with a generic event listener. There's the property event.source, but you still don't really know what field of a form was just toggled, you just have a reference to the element. Is there a way to give the element an ID, as you would with a radiobutton in JavaScript?
Up to now, registered each form UI element in a dictionary, and saved all the values at once, looping through the dictionary and getting each object value. But now I'd like to do this onchange, and I can't find any other way to do it than create a specific callback function for each element (which I'd really rather not).
just assign and id to the element... all of these other solution CAN work, but they seem to be over kill for what you are asking for.
// create switch with id
var switcher0 = Ti.Ui.createSwitch({id:"switch1"});
then inside your event listener
myform.addEventListener('click', function(e){
var obj = e.source;
if ( obj.id == "switch1" ) {
// do some magic!!
}
});
A simple solution is to use a framework that helps you keep track of all your elements, which speeds up development quite a bit, as the project and app grows. I've built a framework of my own called Adamantium.js, which lets you use a syntax like jQuery to deal with your elements, based on ID and type selectors. In a coming release, it will also support for something like classes, that can be arbitrarily added or removed from an element, tracking of master/slave relationships and basic filter methods, to help you narrow your query. Most methods are chainable, so building apps with rich interaction is quick and simple.
A quick demo:
// Type selector, selects all switches
$(':Switch')
// Bind a callback to the change event on all switches
// This callback is also inherited by all new switch elements
$(':Switch').bind('change', function (e) {
alert(e.type + ' fired on ' + e.source.id + ', value = ' + e.value);
});
// Select by ID and trigger an event
$('#MyCustomSwitch').trigger('change', {
foo: 'bar'
});
Then there's a lot of other cool methods in the framework, that are all designed to speed up development and modeled after the familiar ways of jQuery, more about that in the original blog post.
I completely understand not wanting to write a listener to each one because that is very time consuming. I had the same problem that you did and solved it like so.
var switches = [];
function createSwitch(i) {
switches[i] = Ti.UI.createSwitch();
switches[i].addEventListener('change', function(e) {
Ti.API.info('switch '+i+' = '+e.value);
});
return switches[i];
}
for(i=0;i<rows.length;i++) {
row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow();
row.add(createSwitch(i));
}
However keep in mind that this solution may not fit your needs as it did mine. For me it was good because each time I created a switch it added a listener to it dynamically then I could simply get the e.source.parent of the switch to interact with whatever I needed.
module Id just for the hold it's ID. When we have use id the call any another space just use . and use easily.
Try This
var but1 = Ti.Ui.createButton({title : 'Button', id:"1"});
window.addEventListener('click', function(e){
var obj = e.source;
if ( obj.id == "1" ) {
// do some magic!!
}
});
window.add(but1);
I, think this is supported for you.
how do you create your tableview and your switcher? usually i would define a eventListener function while creating the switcher.
// first switch
var switcher0 = Ti.Ui.createSwitch();
switch0.addEventListener('change',function(e){});
myTableViewRow.add(switch0);
myTableView.add(myTableViewRow);
// second switch
var switch1 = ..
so no generic event listener is needed.
