For RadGrid (and other similar controls) it would be nice to be able to simply add AutoHeight="true" to the elements markup to make the grid calculate the browser height and adjust it's own height (including the scrollable DataDiv inside it) automatically rather than having to resort to custom javascript to achieve the same thing.

ie: activate AutoHeight on RadGrid and simply set the distance from the bottom of the browser window to allow for footers, etc. and have that distance maintained even when the browser is resized.

Height and ScrollHeight can only use explicit values - not percentages - which is kind of useless if you want the grid to occupy 100% of the available browser height across different devices. http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grid-height-vs-scrollheight.html

with client-side databinding when setting sort/filter expressions on button click and then calling the rebind or set_currentPageIndex methods the control makes multiple requests to the web service.

Hi Telerik,

The suggestion here is to be able to Copy and Paste (Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V) values from one cell in a column to other selected cells in the same column, when in Batch EditMode.  I currently have this working through javascript functions but maybe going too deep in the RadGrid control to get things to work and the internals of the control sometimes change from one version to another. Thus it might be better to embed this functionality in the control.

In order to better explain I included an attached word document describing what I am talking about with screenshots.

Thanks for you consideration, Jim

The functionalities listed below are officially not supported with multicolumn headers: 
•Frozen Columns;
•Show/Hide on the client;

Please provide the solution for these known issues in next release

As per the current implementation of the RadGrid control, if we set the CurrentFilterFunction, that will be used for that column and even with no value, the same filter function will be used (specified in the CurrentFilterFunction).

This is not user friendly and one should expect that "NoFilter" will be invoked when there is no value.

There is no possibility for invoking the "NoFilter" command when the following properties are set:
ShowFilterIcon = False and AutoPostBackOnFilter = True

Kendo ui Grid is taking more than 10 secs to load Data.It contains approx 16000 records.I am using Ajax call to get data from Database.Please let me know how to reduce the load time.In ASP grid it is taking not more than 3 secs to load the data of 16000 records.

Using EnableTimeIndependentFiltering with a DatePicker works very well but I would like to see a EnableDateIndependentFiltering property. Can date independent filtering be added to the time picker control in the RadGrid?

As it is now you can add a time picker filter column but it does not filter properly since it looks at both the date and time portions of a datetime field.

Hello,

Our project requirement is that information in RadGrid will be exported to PDF in RTL language. 
Please add this feature - it’s very important for our project!!

Thanks,

This has apparently been an issue with RadGrid for a long time, according to the above thread. I have done a significant amount of testing to isolate this bug and have attached a self-contained solution in VB.NET 4.0 (VS 2010).

I removed all the surplus RadGrid properties I could in order to simplify the debugging process on your end and included my notes in the code and on the test page. There is indeed some peculiar behavior with the control.

Matthew
