Grid show/hide – Dynamic Source

[aoverton07Participant]

I have a grid on my page that is hidden on page load. When a certain action is done, I want to show that ‘div’ that contains the grid and update its source. This is not working because of the new LAZY LOADING feature. The grid is not initialized until I ‘show’ the ‘div’, and when I try to define the grid’s source it does not accept the data because it is not fully initialized yet. I’ve tried binding to the ‘bindingcomplete’ callback with no success. How can i properly show/hide a grid and update its source? Which callback can i Use?

Hi aoverton07,

There is no such thing as “New Lazy Loading”. To set/get properties of a Grid or to invoke methods, make sure that you do that in the “bindingcomplete” handler or in the Grid’s “ready” callback function. It is not possible to set properties of the Grid while the binding is not completed and that is valid for all versions of jqxGrid since the first one.

it appears that with the newest version grids do not get fully rendered until all parent elements are visible. When the grid is made visible (it’s tab is selected) you cannot set the source until it gets fully rendered
