Angular: Tabkey Press not Populating fields

I'm new to Angular, I have a component which contains some basic fields and dropdown menu.When I select anything from dropdown using tab key the other related field are not getting populated,But it works with mouse click.
receipt-creation.component.ts
populateItems(event: any, obj) {
this.receiptForm.valueChanges.subscribe(() => {
const dirty = this.isFormDirty(this.receiptForm);
if (dirty) {
this.unsavedChanges = true;
}
});
this.receiptLineItems = obj.itemList; // obj.itemList contain the values related to selected item
this.changeDetectorRef.detectChanges();
this.updateSubtotal(); // this function caluclate the total based on the item selected from the dropdown
}
receipt-creation.component.html
<add-new-row
[addNewText]="INVOICE_CONSTS.ADD_LINE_ITEM"
[canAutoAddNewRow]="false"
[checkPristine]="true"
[type]="'receipt'"
[data]="lineItemsMetaData"
[form]="receiptCreationForm"
[triggerExtraAddNewKey]="true"
[itemList]="receiptLineItems"
(changeItemEvent)="populateItems($event, receiptCreationForm)"
(keydown.enter)="preventFormSubmission($event)"
></add-new-row>
With event.preventDefault() the fields gets populated, but I want the default behaviour of tab key to be working.

How to reflect change made in a component's variable to the view in Angular 2?

I have (n) check boxes and a button in my angular2 view . When I click on one of them a function is called. When I click on the button every checkbox must be unchecked. How to do it?? (n) may vary dynamically.
enter image description here

I will give you an example from a table, since I have no idea what your code actually looks like, but it should work for what you need.
You need some object defined for all of your checkboxes. They likely all have certain properties in common, like labels. Here is an example of such an object:
myData = {
content: [
{
some_string: '',
some_number: 0,
type: '',
selected: false
}
]
};
With this object you can create checkbox instances and push each one to an array, which will hold all of your checkbox objects.
Create your checkboxes in your html in a loop using the objects you have defined above. In your html have your checkboxes call a function. In the case below the checkToggle() function is called.
<input id='{{row.id}}' class='bx--checkbox bx--checkbox--svg'
type='checkbox' name='checkbox' (change)="checkToggle($event,
row.id)" [checked]="row.selected">
checkToggle() has been defined as follows:
//select or deselect this check box
checkToggle(event, nodeId) {
const id = this.findNode(nodeId);
this.myData.content[id].selected = !this.myData[id].selected;
}
Your button should end up calling a function to check all of the boxes
<button (click)="checkToggleAll($event)">Your Button Title</button>
Finally, have your checkToggleAll() function go through the entire array of checkboxes and set them. Here is an example:
//select or deselect all the check boxes
checkToggleAll(event) {
for (let i = 0; i < this.myData.content.length; i++) {
if (this.controls[this.myData.content[i].type]) {
this.myData.content[i].selected = event.target.checked;
}
}
}
This is not something you can plug into your code but it should give you some idea of how to accomplish what you're after.

Add new Row in Kendo Grid with some default values

I want to add new Row in Kendo Grid which is having Default value in First Cell.
How can I set the Default Value in that added Row of Kendo Grid
I am adding New Row in Kendo Grid as::
$('#AddSingleSuppliment').click(function () {
grid.addRow();
});
But I want to Set the Value of First cell on the Basis of Value of Clicked DOM element, Like
$('#AddSingleSuppliment').click(function () {
var temVal=$(this).text();
grid.addRow(tempVal);
});
But we can't do it in that Manner.
So please help me on this, For adding New Row in Kendo Grid with one Cell having Value of Button clicked.
Now I am able to Add New Row in Kendo Grid as,
$("#AddSingleSupplement").click( function(){
var tempSupplement = $(this).val();
//alert(tempSupplement);
grid.addRow(tempSupplement);
grid.dataSource._data[0].Description = $(this).text().trim();
});
But the Value is not Directly Shown while adding new Row. It is Shown after we click on some other element.
Please Suggest me wether this one is the Correct way to do this or there is any other way than this.

For dynamic defaults you can wire up your logic on Edit event, something like:
<script>
$('#AddSingleSuppliment').click(function () {
grid.addRow();
});
function onEdit(e)
{
//Custom logic to default value
var name = $("#AddSingleSuppliment").text();
// If addition
if (e.model.isNew()) {
//set field
e.model.set("Name", name); // Name: grid field to set
}
}
</script>

As per Kendo team , Default value cannot be changed dynamically.
However, we can make use the Grid edit event to pre-populate the edit form:
edit: function(e) {
if (e.model.isNew() && !e.model.dirty) {
e.container
.find("input[name=ProductName]") // get the input element for the field
.val("MyCustomValue") // set the value
.change(); // trigger change in order to notify the model binding
}
}

How do I clear / reset a Kendo DropDownList with only javascript?

I have a Kendo DropDownList (name=Function) that contains 3 options. When one option is selected, it triggers an ajax call to get data to populate a different DropDownList (name=Parents). This works as-expected. However, if the user then changes the original DropDownList "Function" back to a different selection, I need to clear/reset (remove all options) and disable the "Parents" DropDownList.
function LoadKendoDropdownContents(dropdownBoxId, data) {
var dropdownBox = $("#" + dropdownBoxId).data("kendoDropDownList");
if (data === "" || data === null || $.isEmptyObject(data)) {
var dataSource = [];
}
else {
var dataSource = data;
}
dropdownBox.setDataSource(dataSource);
}
It's really the "var dataSource = []" that is giving me problems. It's like the "Parents" DropDownList isn't refreshing/rebinding when that is applied. All of the options except the one that was selected get removed, but how do I remove the one that was previously selected? I want it to be "empty" again.
Thank you.
---- Solution I used ----
function LoadKendoDropdownContents(dropdownBoxId, data) {
var dropdownBox = $("#" + dropdownBoxId).data("kendoDropDownList");
if (data === "" || data === null || $.isEmptyObject(data)) {
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
data: []
});
dropdownBox.text(" --- ");
dropdownBox.value(-1);
}
else {
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
data: data
});
dropdownBox.text("[Select]");
dropdownBox.value(-1);
}
dropdownBox.setDataSource(dataSource);
}

It might be easier to use the cascading dropdown feature.
When you change the dataSource, it removes the dropdown items, but you also need to clear the selected text and disable the box, by calling:
dropdownBox.setDataSource(dataSource);
dropdownBox.text('');
dropdownBox.enable(false);

If you have defined a data source for both the parent and child drop down then you could use the cascadeFrom('parent') method in the child and set a value that you can identify as null or clear.

label inside combobox and conditional multiselect

I am building a pretty combobox with checkboxes and conditional entries. Everything works out alright, except for two features that I cannot figure out how to implement.
1) I would like to move the label inside the combobox, make it shift the values to the right, and appear in a slightly gray color.
2) I would like the value to ignore certain entries (group headers) selected. Those entries are there for functionality only - to select/unselect groups of other entries.
The entire project is in the zip file. You don't need a server, it's a client base app. Just download the archive, unpack, and launch app.html in your browser.
http://filesave.me/file/30586/project-zip.html
And here's a snapshot of what I would like to achieve.

Regarding your second issue, the best way I see is to override combobox onListSelectionChange to filter the values you don't want:
onListSelectionChange: function(list, selectedRecords) {
//Add the following line
selectedRecords = Ext.Array.filter(selectedRecords, function(rec){
return rec.data.parent!=0;
});
//Original code unchanged from here
var me = this,
isMulti = me.multiSelect,
hasRecords = selectedRecords.length > 0;
// Only react to selection if it is not called from setValue, and if our list is
// expanded (ignores changes to the selection model triggered elsewhere)
if (!me.ignoreSelection && me.isExpanded) {
if (!isMulti) {
Ext.defer(me.collapse, 1, me);
}
/*
* Only set the value here if we're in multi selection mode or we have
* a selection. Otherwise setValue will be called with an empty value
* which will cause the change event to fire twice.
*/
if (isMulti || hasRecords) {
me.setValue(selectedRecords, false);
}
if (hasRecords) {
me.fireEvent('select', me, selectedRecords);
}
me.inputEl.focus();
}
},
And change your onBoundlistItemClick to only select and deselect items in the boundlist not to setValue of the combo:
onBoundlistItemClick: function(dataview, record, item, index, e, eOpts) {
var chk = item.className.toString().indexOf('x-boundlist-selected') == -1;
if ( ! record.data.parent) {
var d = dataview.dataSource.data.items;
for (var i in d) {
var s = d[i].data;
if (s.parent == record.data.id) {
if (chk) { // select
dataview.getSelectionModel().select(d[i],true);
} else { // deselect
dataview.getSelectionModel().deselect(d[i]);
}
}
}
}
},
Regarding your first issue, it is easy to add the label using the displayTpl config option. But this will only add the text you need, without any style (grey color, etc). The combo is using a text input, which does not accept html tags. If you don't need the user to type text, than you may want to change the combo basic behavior and use another element instead of the text input.
