Groups
The grouping functionality of the Form allows you to create more intuitive forms by displaying fields in logical grouped sections.
The following example shows a Form configured to display its editors in two groups.
@(Html.Kendo().Form<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.Form.FormOrderViewModel>()
.Name("exampleForm")
.HtmlAttributes(new { action = "Groups", method = "POST" })
.Validatable(v =>
{
v.ValidateOnBlur(true);
v.ValidationSummary(vs => vs.Enable(false));
})
.Items(items =>
{
items.AddGroup()
.Label("Personal Information")
.Layout("grid")
.Items(i =>
{
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.FirstName)
.Label(l => l.Text("First Name:"));
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.LastName)
.Label(l => l.Text("Last Name:"));
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.Email)
.Label(l => l.Text("Email:"));
});
items.AddGroup()
.Label("Shipping Address")
.Layout("grid")
.Items(i =>
{
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.ShipCountry)
.Label(l => l.Text("Country:"))
.Editor(e =>
{
e.ComboBox()
.DataTextField("Text")
.DataValueField("Value")
.BindTo(new List<SelectListItem>() {
new SelectListItem() {
Text = "France", Value = "1"
},
new SelectListItem() {
Text = "Germany", Value = "2"
},
new SelectListItem() {
Text = "Italy", Value = "3"
},
new SelectListItem() {
Text = "Spain", Value = "4"
}
});
});
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.City)
.Label(l => l.Text("City:"));
i.Add()
.Field(f => f.Address)
.Label(l => l.Text("Address Line:"));
});
items.Add()
.Field(f => f.Agree)
.Label(l => l.Text("Agree to Terms:"));
})
)
The Form does not support group nesting.
