Grid State object column data is chopped off after 5 columns

[mou_willMember]

Hi,

we are using jqwidgets version 2.8.3. The grid has 11 columns in it. When I invoke ‘saveState’ or ‘getState’ I get a state object with the first 5 columns of data and the last column which is a checkbox selection. The same happens even when we are trying to export the data. The middle 5 columns of data are simply missing. I cannot point anything very different for the column types defined. My questions are

1) Did anyone see anything like this happen to them before.
2) If a previous known issue, what version would fix this issue and what would be the dependent jquery version to be used.

thank you in advance,
Will

Hi Will,

We have never experienced such behavior. Would you please provide a sample(Web Page with HTML + JS) which illustrates the described behavior? Btw. The Grid does not have ‘saveState’ and ‘getState’ methods. The names of the methods are ‘savestate’ and ‘getstate’.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I will try providing such a sample.
I can see the data in the columns when i try to loop through and prit out information about each column using
for(var i =0; i< $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('columns').records.length; i++) {
var tmp = $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('columns').records[i];
alert(i+"column "+ tmp.text);
}

Regarding the case of the method names, I just typed it wrong here in the post. In the actual code they are

var state = $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('savestate');
$("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('loadstate', state);

thank you,
Will.

Hi Will,

The “$(“#jqxgrid”).jqxGrid(‘columns’).records” is for internal usage only and is part of the Grid’s internal API. Despite of that fact, $(“#jqxgrid”).jqxGrid(‘columns’).records returns the Columns set to the Grid during its initialization. Loading of State with Additional columns will not append new columns to the Grid.

I have corrected my issues Peter. I at some point replaced datafield for the columns definition as displayfield and hence the state was not capturing the information properly. Wanted to post it here for future for help for anybody else.

thank you for the help.
