hmm… doesn’t have any information on this feature. So, should I assume it will not supported anytime this year? Difficult to tell if the listed features are expected to take the next several releases to deliver.

Is this feature on the roadmap? We also have a need for it.

One more option, would it be possible to preserve the filters for only certain columns when calling updatebounddata?

Sorry, nevermind, i was able to figure out what i was doing wrong from this article: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation/documentation/jqxdataadapter/jquery-data-adapter.htm

I needed to call the “dataBind” method and then the “updatebounddata”. thanks!

Thanks, Dimitar! that explanation helps! One final challenge that i am facing. In our application, we are binding the data to a local array as you see in the example i provided. I can not figure out how to update the grid’s data without doing a call like this, “(“#gridId”).jqxGrid({source:updatedArray})”. That call refreshes everything. I tried just changing that line to (“#gridId”).jqxGrid(‘updatebounddata’) and it did not update. I’m thinking i need to do something with the “adapter” variable that i have but can not figure it out.

any help would be appreciated.

Dimitar,

Thank you for your response! I should better explain what we are attempting to achieve.

We are looking at using a “Drop Down Grid” to allow users to choose people based on id, name, groups. We would like to extend it so that multiple people may be selected. The content of the dropdown will be set to “N selected” where N will be the number of people selected.

So, when the user clicks on the dropdown, we are looking for a quick way for them to find the rows they have selected. So, that’s why filtering or sorting on the “checkbox” column would be what we are looking for.

Sorry, my explanation above was jumping to a solution before making the desired behavior clear. I’ll try to be better about that in the future.

[gombbcParticipant]

Thanks! To your earlier point about the method being removed, when that occurs, it will be mentioned in the “release history”, correct? http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation/documentation/releasehistory/releasehistory.htm.

If not, I’d really like to recommend that it be added.

We no longer plan to use the method but want to ensure we understand how such changes are communicated.

Peter,

Thanks for your response! Is there a way i may keep track of what is deprecated?

Again, appreciate your response!
