Remove 'None' option in DropdownList of Kendo UI Scheduler Popup Editor

Environment

Description

How can I prevent having 'None' as an option and as a default value in the DropdownList of the Scheduler Popup Editor Form?

Solution

  1. Hide the 'None' option by setting the display to none for the selector 'div.k-list-optionlabel'.

        div.k-list-optionlabel {
          display: none;
        }
    
  2. Set the 'defaultValue' in the schema.model.fields.fieldName.

        schema: {
          fields: {
            roomId: { from: "RoomID", defaultValue: 1 }
          }
        }
    
  3. By default, the 'nullable' parameter is set to false as seen in the Model.define method. You can also set the 'nullable' parameter to false.

        schema: {
          fields: {
            roomId: { from: "RoomID", nullable: false }
          }
        }
    

    Example

    <style>
        div.k-list-optionlabel {
          display: none;
        }
    </style>

    <div id="example" class="k-content">
        <div id="scheduler"></div>
    </div>

    <script>
    $(function() {
        $("#scheduler").kendoScheduler({
        date: new Date("2022/6/13"),
