Ext JS SortType treecolumn

Using ExtJS 4.2.3. Have form with treecolumn xtype field which contains string value with number in begin. Column has 3 lvls of structure. On first lvl sort needs to be in order like (2, 3, 5, 40, 100 and etc).
After picking third lvl value in selection form, value in box will look like:
3.ABC.<BR>3.23.ABCCDD.<BR>3.23.5. ABCC
Sample of code:
enter Picker = new Project.Picker({
title: "Title1",
proxyCfg: {
url: Ext.state.Manager.get("url") + "TreeList",
type: "ajax"},
idProperty: "id",
defaultRootId: "NULL",
nodeParam: "parent_Code",
PickerCfg: [
{ name: "id", type: "string", isSC: false },
{ xtype: "treecolumn", name: "Fieldname", header: "Header1", type: "string", isSC: true, isHC: true },
{ name: "name2", type: "string" },
{ name: "code", header: "Header3", type: "string", isSC: true}],
viewConfig: {
listeners: {
itemdblclick: function (view, record) {
Order_Form.getComponent("Grid").selModel.getSelection()[0].set("id", record.get("id"));
Order_Form.getComponent("Grid").selModel.getSelection()[0].set("Fieldname", record.get("Fieldname"));
Order_Form.getComponent("Grid").selModel.getSelection()[0].set("code", record.get("code"));
trigger.setValue(record.get("name2"));
this.up().up().destroy();
}
}
},
sorters: [{
property: "code",
direction: "ASC"
}]
}).show(this, function () { this.getComponent(0).DMS_search(); Picker.getComponent(0).getView().refresh(); });
}
},
tpl: "<table class='Gridd' style='border-collapse: collapse; border: medium none;'><tr><td><b>[Header1]: </b></td><td style='width:100%;'>{Name2}</td></tr><tr><td><b>[Header3]: </b></td><td>{code}</td></tr></table>"
Asking for help with sorting in selection form.

How to make a cell in a jqxGrid dynamically editable depending on the content of the row

I am trying to make a cell in a jqxGrid editable depending on the value of another column in the row (with the name Editable).
{ text: "Percentage", datafield: "Percentage", columntype: 'numberinput', width: 100, cellsformat: 'p2',
editable: function (index, datafield, value, defaultvalue, column, rowdata) {
return rowdata.Editable;
}
},
This does not work. The cell is always editable regardless of the value of rowdata.Editable.
Replacing return rowData.Editable; with return false; does not work either.
I am using jqWidgets 3.9.0 in combination with JQuery 1.7.1.
Can anybody explain why this does not work and how to get it to work?

I got this to work by doing the following:
Replacing the url in the data source with localdata which references a local array called "data".
This array is filled using the original source url.
var data = [{}];
var source =
{
datatype: "json",
datafields: [
{ name: 'Id', type: 'number' },
{ name: 'Name', type: 'string' },
{ name: 'Percentage', type: 'string' },
{ name: 'Editable', type: 'bool' }
],
localdata: data
}
Using the cellbeginedit property instead of the editable property when defining the columns in the jqxGrid:
var dataAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(source);
$("#myGrid").jqxGrid(
{
width: 800,
source: dataAdapter,
editable: true,
editmode: 'click',
selectionmode: 'singlecell',
columns: [
{ text: "Id", datafield: "Id", columntype: 'textbox', editable: false, hidden: true },
{ text: "Name", datafield: "Name", columntype: 'textbox', width: 400, editable: false },
{ text: "Percentage", datafield: "Percentage", columntype: 'numberinput', width: 100, cellsformat: 'p2',
cellbeginedit: function (row) {
return data[row].Editable;
}
},
]
});

I was using the cellclick to do this kind of control.
$("#jqxGrid").on('cellclick', function (event) {
var args = event.args;
var datafield = event.args.datafield;
var rowIndex = args.rowindex;
var data = $('#jqxGrid').jqxGrid('getrowdata', rowIndex);
if(datafield == 'assign'){
if(data.assign){
$('#jqxGrid').jqxGrid('setcolumnproperty', 'datafield', 'editable', true);
}else{
$('#jqxGrid').jqxGrid('setcolumnproperty', 'datafield', 'editable', false);
}
}
});

Kendo UI Grid Checkbox Column Field Not Defined

I am trying to add a kendo checkbox column. I have done this successfully in another grid. However, when I tried to do the same thing in another grid, I am getting a "IsSimple is undefined" error, where IsSimple is a simple boolean model field.
Model for my kendo data source:
schema: {
data: function (data) { //specify the array that contains the data
console.log("DATA RETURN TEST");
console.log(data);
return data || [];
},
model: {
id: "Id",
fields: {
Id: { editable: false,
nullable: false,
type: "number"
},
DesignatorName: { type: "string" },
TXFreq: { type: "string" },
RXFreq: { type: "string" },
IsSpecial: { type: "bool" },
IsCommand: { type: "bool" },
}
}
Here is my column definition for my kendoGrid.
$("#DesignatorFreqGrid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: DesignatorDS,
columns: [
{ field: "DesignatorName", title: "Frequency", format: "{0:c}", width: "120px" },
{ field: "TXFreq", editor: TXFreqEditor, title: "TX Frequency", format: "{0:c}", width: "120px" },
{ field: "RXFreq", editor: TXFreqEditor, title: "RX Frequency", format: "{0:c}", width: "120px" },
{ field: "IsSpecial", template: '<input type="checkbox" #= IsSpecial ? checked="checked" : "" # disabled="disabled" ></input>', title: "Is Special", format: "{0:c}", width: "120px" },
{ field: "IsCommand", template: '<input type="checkbox" #= IsCommand ? checked="checked" : "" # disabled="disabled" ></input>', title: "Is Command", format: "{0:c}", width: "120px" },
{ command: ["edit", "destroy"], title: " ", width: "250px" }
],
toolbar: ["create"],
editable: "inline",
pageable: true
});
Here is my JSON object:
"other fields........DesignatorName: "11"
EQUIPMENT: ObjectId: 2
IsCommand: true
IsSpecial: true
RXFreq: "55"
TXFreq: "22"
As you can see, IsSpecial is defined. The binding works when I load data into the grid. The checkboxes are indeed checked. But if I try to add a new record with the "Add New Record" button in the grid, I will get the error "Uncaught ReferenceError: IsSpecial is not defined".
If I change the binding to this.IsSpecial, I don't get the error anymore, and can add a new row to my database, but then the binding won't work and the boxes aren't checked when loading the grid,
It seems like it should work, and I do not know where else to look. Any ideas? Thanks.

You need to use boolean, instead of bool.
IsSpecial: { type: "boolean" },
IsCommand: { type: "boolean" }

KendoUI - Read edited data from grid cells using underlying model

below i have a kendoUI grid that fetches data from a server. The user can then edit two columns in the grid. I have a separate button that will post the data back to the server and i do not use the kendo grid's UPDATE transport for this. The problem i am having is that if i fetch the data from the grid, it does not reflect the user inputs. For example, to get to the underlying data for the grid i do the following:
products= $("#Grid").data("kendoGrid").dataSource.data()
But when i iterate over products and check the NewPrice or Comment property, it's always blank. Here is how the grid's data source is defined:
dataSource: {
transport: {
read: function (options) {
$.ajax({
url: "/Portal/API/GetProductPrices?id=" + pId,
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
localModel.userId = data.userId;
localModel.products = data.Products;
return options.success(model.products);
},
});
}
},
},
scrollable: false,
selectable: true,
schema: {
model: {
id: 'Id',
fields: {
Item: { type: 'string', editable: false },
Price: { type: 'number', editable: false },
NewPrice: { type: 'number', editable: true },
Comment: { type: 'string', editable: true, validation: { required: true } },
}
}
},
columns: [
{ field: "Price", title:"Price"},
{
field: "NewPrice", title: "<span class='editMode'>Proposed Value</span>", format: "{0:p}", attributes: { style: "text-align:center;" }, headerAttributes: { style: "text-align:center;" }, width: "50px",
template: "#=NewValueTemplate(data)#",
},
{ field: "Comment", title: "<span class='editMode viewWorkflowMode'>Notes</span>", width: "210px", template: "#=NotesTemplate(data)#" },
]
Any advice in resolving would be appreciated

You haven't specified the editing type that you are using.
Which type are you using: inline, batch or popup ?
Is only this the datasource ? I see no update function.
I suggest you take a look at the three demos.
Batch
Inline
Popup
The worst thing is that you haven't specified the value of the property editable.
By default it is false, that means the kendoGrid is not editable, even if you have specified editable: true over your model fields.
Shortcut to "Editable" configuration
update #2 :
As already said here
If the data source is bound to a remote service (via the transport option) the data method will return the service response.
So, when you use dataSource.data() method on your grid, if you haven't updated correctly your datasource, you should receive all "old" data. (I found strange that you get blank value over those properties, maybe a cache problem)
As I already said, your dataSource doens't provide no update function.
Here you are an example about the configuration of the update function in kendo dataSource, with request to remote service.
Suggest you to look on both examples:
Example - specify update as a string and Example - specify update as a function

Please implement the logic from the following example:
var _roleDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
data: [
{ id: 1, title: "Software Engineer" },
{ id: 2, title: "Quality Assurance Engineer" },
{ id: 3, title: "Team Lead" },
{ id: 4, title: "Manager" }
]
});
var _peopleDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
data: [
{ id: 1, name: "John", roleId: 1, roleTitle: "Software Engineer" },
{ id: 2, name: "Dave", roleId: 2, roleTitle: "Quality Assurance Engineer" },
{ id: 3, name: "Aaron", roleId: 3, roleTitle: "Team Lead" },
{ id: 4, name: "Russell", roleId: 4, roleTitle: "Manager" }
]
});
var _grid = $("#grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: _peopleDataSource,
columns: [
{
field: "name",
title: "Name"
},{
field: "roleTitle",
title: "Role",
editor: function(container, options) {
$("<input data-bind='value:roleTitle' />")
.attr("id", "ddl_roleTitle")
.appendTo(container)
.kendoDropDownList({
dataSource: _roleDataSource,
dataTextField: "title",
dataValueField: "title",
template: "<span data-id='${data.id}'>${data.title}</span>",
select: function(e) {
var id = e.item.find("span").attr("data-id");
var person =_grid.dataItem($(e.sender.element).closest("tr"));
person.roleId = id;
setTimeout(function() {
$("#log")
.prepend($("<div/>")
.text(
JSON.stringify(_grid.dataSource.data().toJSON())
).append("<br/><br/>")
);
});
}
});
}
}
],
editable: true
}).data("kendoGrid");
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="grid"></div>
<br/>
<div id="log"></div>

In this case, i needed to allow some rows based on data rules to enter 'edit mode' at the same time, so specifying inline, popup, etc was not an option. What i did instead was use a custom template function when defining the grid columns. the custom template function returned html, but in the html i used the data-bind attribute to bind to my model. Finally on the DataBound event of the grid, i bind my model to the rows.
field: "NewPrice", title: "New", format: "{0:p}", template: "#=newValueTemplate(d)#",
....
....
function newValueTemplate(d){
if (d.IsEditable)
return "<input type='number' data-bind='value:NewPrice' />"
else
return "<span />"
}
function gridDataBound(e){
var items = this.dataSource.view();
var gridRows = this.tbody.children();
for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++)
kendo.bind(gridRows[i], items[i]);
}

Kendo Grid: How to sort (and filter) a column bound to a simple json object

I have seen a number of questions on sorting, but I couldn't find any for my very simple case.
I have taken the online example (where if I add the sortable and filterable, they don't work on the category field either), and modified it very slightly, just to use very simple local json data (to make it eaier to see what I am working with while learning the grid.
So, looking at the category field I want to sort and filter, in my columns definition I have ....
columns: [
{
...
{
field: "Category",
title: "Category",
width: "180px",
editor: categoryDropDownEditor,
template: "#=Category.description#"
},
and in the data source, the category field consists on s simple json object with 2 fields code and description (where code it to be the value field, and description is what to display) ...
var gridData = [
{
....
ProductID : 1,
ProductName : "Chai",
Category : {
code : '1',
description : "Beverages",
},
...
];
I have added the sortable, and filterable properties to the grid however the category field show the sort arrows (which toggle when clicked), but the column data does not sort or filter.
How do I will the sort and filter to look at the description field to carry out these operations?
Note I also have a combo cell editor attached
function createCombo(container, options, data) {
var input = $('<input name="' + options.field + '" />')
input.appendTo(container)
var combobox = input.kendoComboBox({
autoBind: true,
filter: "contains",
placeholder: "select...",
suggest: true,
dataTextField: "description",
dataValueField: "code",
dataSource: data,
});
where the data is of form
[
{code: 'code1', description: 'desc1'},
{code: 'code2', description: 'desc2'},
]
So I would need the combo to also populate the field with the correct value.
Thanks in advance for any help!
