.Name inheritance

Hi Vadim,

Thank you for reaching out.

Based on the provided code snippet, I am not entirely certain about the desired outcome that needs to be achieved on your end. That being said could you please share the model structure that is utilized on your end? For example, a code snippet illustrating model hierarchy would be beneficial for the case, as it will give me a better overall understanding of the currently utilized scenario. In addition, could you please elaborate more on what you specifically mean by "How to make that when loading the data from the model is automatically substituted".

Nevertheless, based on the provided label, if the desired result is to insert a value from an inherited property within the model to the .Name() configuration of the DropDownList, I would recommend omitting the "quotation" marks within the name configuration method, so that the model is recognized. Here is an exemplary configuration:

Model Hierarchy:

public class Animal
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }

}

public class Dog : Animal
{
        public string Breed { get; set; }
}

View:

@model Dog

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
    .Name(Model.Name)
    ...
)

Controller:

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        var dog = new Dog()
        {
            Id = 1,
            Name = "Ruffus",
            Breed = "Pug"
        };

        return View(dog);
    }
}

Would produce the following HTML markup:
