Column templates

Kendo UI supports different ways to code templates for Grid columns, as descirbed here: http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/grid#configuration-columns.template. These column templates are similar to specifying the column elements of a row column template (see Row template format).

You can specify the code for a column template as the value of the Template property for an included column selected in the Grid Columns dialog box that you open for editing the columns of a grid view. You can access this dialog box by clicking Edit for the Grid Columns property in the PROPERTIES pane of a grid view design page. For more information, see the topics on adding and editing grid views in Modules and views.

For example, to apply a column template that renders the value of a Name field in bold that appears in the corresponding column of a grid view, select the included column for that field and enter #: Name # (without quotes) as the value of the Template property.
