kendoui menu filter / form
Pergunta
I would like to have a button and when the user clicks on it a filter form pops down just below the button. I would like to utilize Kendo UI controls to achieve the effect.
In fact, what I need is almost exactly the 'filtering' that can be found on this example:
http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/filter-menu-customization
However, I'm not dealing with a grid of data so I can't use that example above.
Solução
There are different possible implementations. Here I will describe one based on kendoWindow
since then you have a lot of possible customizations for that filtering form.
This is the HTML that includes the button:
<div>
This is the container that includes a
<button id="filter" class="k-button">Filter</button>
that is used to display a form
</div>
And then you define the HTML form. Example:
<div id="form">
<div>Filtering value:<input data-role="autocomplete"/></div>
<button class="k-button">Filter</button>
</div>
Doing the form initialization is:
var form = $("#form").kendoWindow({
title : "Filter",
visible : false,
modal : false,
draggable: false
}).data("kendoWindow");
Where initially we set the form as not visible.
You can define it as modal
, draggable
or even define the opening and closing effect.
Finally, for opening and placing the form just bellow the button you should:
$("#filter").on("click", function(e) {
// Find clicked button
var button = $(e.currentTarget);
// and get its position
var pos = button.offset();
// shift down the form to open by the height of the button + 5px (margin)
pos.top += button.outerHeight() + 5;
// Apply positioning to the form
form.wrapper.css(pos);
// display form
form.open();
});
