The Telerik UI ActionSheet HtmlHelper for ASP.NET MVC is a server-side wrapper for the Kendo UI ActionSheet widget.

The ActionSheet is a dialog that displays a set of options for the user to choose from. The component appears on top of the app's content, and the user must manually dismiss it before resuming the interaction with the app.

Initializing the ActionSheet

The following example demonstrates how to define the ActionSheet.

    @(Html.Kendo().ActionSheet()
        .Name("actionsheet")
    )

Basic Configuration

The following example demonstrates a basic configuration of the ActionSheet component with multiple items.

    @(Html.Kendo().ActionSheet()
        .Name("actionsheet")
        .Title("Select item")
        .Items(items =>
        {
            items.Add().Text("Edit Item").IconClass("k-icon k-i-edit").Click("onClick");
            items.Add().Text("Add to Favorites").IconClass("k-icon k-i-heart").Click("onClick");
            items.Add().Text("Upload New").IconClass("k-icon k-i-upload").Click("onClick");
            items.Add().Text("Cancel").IconClass("k-icon k-i-cancel").Group("bottom").Click("onClick");
        })
    )

    <script>
    $(function() {
        // The Name() of the ActionSheet is used to get its client-side instance.
        function onClick(e) {
            e.preventDefault();
            var actionsheet = $("#actionsheet").data("kendoActionSheet");
