The horizontal scrollbar is not visible in iOS when the grid is empty.

Code to reproduce the problem:
<style>
        html, body, body > form {
            height: 100%;
            padding: 0;
            margin: 0;
        }
    </style>
...
        <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" Width="100%"
            AutoGenerateColumns="true"
            OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource">
            <ClientSettings>
                <Scrolling AllowScroll="true" />
            </ClientSettings>
            <MasterTableView Width="1500px">
            </MasterTableView>
        </telerik:RadGrid>

    protected void RadGrid1_NeedDataSource(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
    {
        (sender as RadGrid).DataSource = GetData();
    }

    private object GetData()
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("column1");
        dt.Columns.Add("column2");
        dt.Columns.Add("column3");
        dt.Columns.Add("column4");
        dt.Columns.Add("column5");
        dt.Columns.Add("column6");
        dt.Columns.Add("column7");
        dt.Columns.Add("column8");

        //dt.Rows.Add(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8);

        return dt;
    }

Please add a setting for the Grid in batch edit mode to enable prompting to save changes.  The prompt should occur when navigating away from the page, when paging, when filtering, when refreshing, or any other action that would cause loss of changes without a save.
For details on how I implemented this manually, please see ticket 933229.

I was wondering if there was a way to freeze a row (similar to freezing a column)

Most spreadsheets (EXCEL and Sheets) have this capability and it appears to be a very popular feature that is missing in RADGrid.


I thought I saw the ability to pin a row (but could not find the details)

Do you have any suggestions and sample code?

thanks

If I'm to believe the Telerik agent in this forum thread... http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reply-thread.aspx?messageId=0&threadId=750553

then presenting users WITHTEXTTHATLOOKSLIKETHIS (as is done by default in Metro Skin Grid Filter Menu) is a "design" feature. I happen to believe that menu items ought to be readable by human users and not appear like they are the result of some sort of keyboard malfunction... at least by default. If some "designer" out there feels the need to present their users with ABSURDTEXTFORMATTING, then it is they that should be required to implement some sort of hack, not the rest of us. This was a horrible design decision made by someone at Telerik, and the fact that I am required to appeal to other developers who have better things to do with their time in order to get Telerik to see the absurdity of this design and fix it is most troubling.

I would like to suggest that a more intuitive clear filter option be used on the Filtering columns in the RadGrid.  Currently, I have to select "No Filter" from the Filter list of options.

Instead, I believe the Filter should be provided to be more intuitive similar to other applications such as Microsoft Access, Excel or Google Search.

In Microsoft Access or Excel, I simply unselect the Filter icon to remove the Filter.
In Google Search, I simply click the X icon next to my search criteria to remove my search text.

Either of these methods should be adopted so that the overall end user experience is more pleasant and comparable to filter capabilities in other tools and products.

Selecting a cell from horizontally scrolled RadGrid with allowed Keyboard Navigationcauses the page to be scrolled to the left in IE 11.

Comment: If the Batch editing is enabled the cell is selected, but the batch editing is not started.

Code to reproduce the issue:
<div style="width: 4000px">
        <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="true" AllowSorting="true" Skin="Telerik" RenderMode="Lightweight"
            OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource">
            <ClientSettings AllowKeyboardNavigation="true" Scrolling-AllowScroll="true" Scrolling-SaveScrollPosition="true">
                <Selecting CellSelectionMode="SingleCell" />
            </ClientSettings>
            <GroupingSettings ShowUnGroupButton="true"></GroupingSettings>
            <MasterTableView  CommandItemDisplay="Top" Frame="Border" ShowFooter="true" AllowPaging="True" AllowCustomPaging="true" ShowGroupFooter="true">
            </MasterTableView>
        </telerik:RadGrid>
</div>

Create a FilterControlEmptyMessage property so users can set an empty message in the grid filter textbox, much like the EmptyMessag property of RadTextBoxes.

Ideally make it so this property can be accessed/modified client and server-side.

The title says it all. Right now there's only a check all option.

In the out of the box Grid CheckList filter the only way to clear all items for a checklist filter once filter items have been selected is to:

1) Uncheck each one individually
2) Click "Check All" to check all, then click "Check All" again to uncheck all.

It would be great to just have a clear all/clear selection button in the filter list.

Dear developers

I would like to see an easy way to have straight forward navigation / edit / save operations in radgrid the way it works for MS Access grids. When working in MS Access grid the record automatically gets dirty on edit, has an easy cancel by ESC button, and auto-saves without any trouble when moving to the next record. The way it works in MS Access is until 2018 still hard to find in a web-control. I managed to use the batch edit and have a kind of auto save when moving to the next record. but it is a pain because the postback action results in loosing the focus on the field you navigated to. 

Why is it so hard to built what the MS boys (the old guys did great work) already built ages ago. Its about time that our web controls behave like old fashioned windows fat client controls.

Please don't lean behind, thinking that all is fine now. its not, a lot can be improved and made easier to handle and give user better user experience.

When I look at the current NEW / UPDATES for ASP.NET Ajax Controls it make me cry to see that its apparently put aside as FINISHED. Wake up, improve more or give a clear roadmap for future developments. Progress should not loose focus on the Telerik ASP.NET Ajax toolbox because that one is still a major tool for the coming 5-10 years I expect.

How is it possible to autofit / autosize a giving column (or all columns) when exporting the contents from RadGrid to xlsx using ExportStructure?

The only option available is Width with a defined value. I was unable to find an autofit / autosize function.

And also add AutoFilter feature...

Please consider to add this features :-)

There should be RadGrid.ExportSettings.WorksheetName property to name a Sheet inside the Excel file, instead of having it named after the RadGrid.ExportSettings.FileName property as well as to avoid additional coding to Work around this.

Hi

When using RadGrid with popup Edit forms, it would be great if we can have a property that allows users to position the edit form just above or below the row being edited (depending on available space).

See attached file which contains three JS functions that we use to position our edit forms. We rely mainly on the '_radGridCenterPopUpToSelectedRow()' which positioned the edit form below the row being edited (or above if there is no space below) but this does not work right if the page has scrolled vertically or if we are in a child grid of an hierarchical grid.

It would be great if this could be a standard property for the Edit forms so that we do not need to keep computing the position for the pop-up edit forms.

Thanks

The filter expression that we build should use ToUpperCase in the build expresssion.

If anchor links of GridButtonColumn do not define a text links are still rendered and screen readers read their href attribute. Anchor links with no text could define an attribute area-hidden="true".

Description:

If RadGrid has UseStaticHeaders enabled, different HTML Tables are rendered and instructing JAWS to read the tables one by one will also read the Header. It would say Header with "n" number of columns and one rows, since the table has only one row and that is containing the Column Names.

Goal:

It would be great, if the grid with Static Header could be made in a way that JAWS will only treat the grid as one Table instead of two separate tables.
