### Bug report

When an Editor component in inline mode is set as an editor in an InCell editable Grid, the Grid cell does not enter edit mode on "click". The issue occurs since version 2023.1.314.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Create an InCell editable Grid.

2) Set an Editor component in inline mode as an editor to a specified Grid column.

3) Try to edit the cell.

4) The cell flashes and does not enter edit mode.

A Dojo sample for reporduction: https://dojo.telerik.com/zQUvDQEq (check out the "ProductName" column)

### Expected/desired behavior

The Grid column that uses Editor component in inline mode must be editable.

### Environment

* **Kendo UI version: since 2023.1.314
* **jQuery version: 3.4.1
* **Browser: [all]

Bug report

When using the Kendo MultiSelect TagHelper and binding it to a model property, the selected values are not populated.

Reproduction of the problem

Create the MultiSelect and bind it to a property of the view model:

@model API.Models.IndexViewModel

<kendo-multiselect for="SelectedCategoriesTagHelper"
                   bind-to="@Model.Categories"
                   datatextfield="Text"
                   datavaluefield="Value"
></kendo-multiselect> 

Expected/desired behavior

The MultiSelect TagHelper should correctly display the selected values when bound to a model property.

Bug report

The Thumbnail() option of the Editor's ImageBrowser configuration does not provide UrlHandler() option, which is available for the Image() option.
Referenced in this commit

Reproduction of the problem

1. Define an Editor and enable the ImageBrowser feature:
   Open this REPL example

Expected/desired behavior

The UrlHandler() function must be available to set the URL that serves the thumbnail using a JavaScript handler.

TicketID:

1682129

Environment

• **Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core version: 2025.1.227
• **Browser: [all]

Currently, the Editor's ImageBrowser dataSource only uses the default name, size, and type fields: https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/editor/configuration/imagebrowser.schema.model.fields#imagebrowserschemamodelfields

Additional custom fields coming with the response (sent back to the client by the specified end point) are ignored and are not accessible in the ImageBrowser's dataSource.

### Bug report

When loading an editor through a partial View using EditorTemplateView(await Html.PartialAsync("PartialViewName")), the following error occurs:

The 'await' operator can only be used within an async lambda expression. Consider marking this lambda expression with the 'async' modifier.

### Reproduction of the problem

@(Html.Kendo().Form<UserViewModel>()
     .Name("myForm")
     .Items(items =>
     {
         items.Add().Field(f => f.Username).EditorTemplateView(await Html.PartialAsync("PartialViewName"));
      })
)

### Expected/desired behavior

The EditorTemplateView() must accept Html.PartialAsync("PartialViewName").

### Environment

* **Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core version: 2024.4.1112
* **Browser: [all]

### Bug report

The File() option of the Editor's FileBrowser configuration does not provide UrlHandler() option, which is available for the ImageBrowser.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Define an Editor and enable the FileBrowser feature:

@(Html.Kendo().Editor()
    .Name("Description")
    .Tools(tools => tools
        .Clear()
        .InsertFile()
    )
    .FileBrowser(fileBrowser => fileBrowser
        .File("GetFile", "FileBrowser", new { path = "{0}" })
        .Read("Read", "FileBrowser")
        .Create("Create", "FileBrowser")
        .Destroy("Destroy", "FileBrowser")
        .Upload("Upload", "FileBrowser")
        )
)

2) The File() option sets URL responsible for serving the original file. Try to set it by using a JavaScript handler.

3) The File(x => x.UrlHandler("setURLHandler")) configuration is not available.

### Expected/desired behavior

The UrlHandler() function must be available to set the URL that serves the file using a JavaScript handler.

### Environment

* **Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core version: 2025.1.211

I'm using an OData datasource to populate the grid.  To make matters worse, the Autocomplete retrieves data for *all* of the grid columns.  I'd say the default behavior should only retrieve the current column's data and preferably use OData groupby to limit the results to distinct values.

Interestingly, the CheckBoxList filter *is* populated from the current grid data, behaving as expected.  

My page is attached and the issue is occurring in the detail grid where Server Filtering is disabled.

Currently, the DatePicker can be set to read-only mode by adding the "readonly" attribute through the HtmlAttributes() option or by calling the client-side readonly() method.

Is it possible to implement a built-in Readonly() option, so the DatePicker is initialized as read-only? For example:

@(Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(m => m.StratDate)
  .Readonly(true)
)

I am seeing that once a grid checkboxlist column filter exceeds about 1000 items the wait time appears to increase non-linearly (performance is worse than linear.)  For example, with 3,000 items the page freezes for about 30 seconds.  The data is fetched in under 50 milliseconds, so the vast majority of this time appears to be processing by Kendo.

Please see the attached for my configuration.

Hi Team,

Currently, Telerik.Licensing NuGet package only has target for netstandard2.0, netframework462 and net6.0. I cannot use .NET 6 for my .NET 9 application because .NET 6 is out of support. 

This is a feature request to either

• Remove the net6.0 TFM and reply only on netstandard2.0
  • or
• Add net8.0 and net9.0 targets.

Thank you,

Arthur

1. Installs both extensions ASP.NET Core and MVC without the latest MVC and ASP.Net Core product versions
2. Create an ASP.NET Core project with an older version
3. An Update Available Notification appears for ASP.Net Core
4. Click on the "Update Now" button
5. The Upgrade project wizard is launched
6. Click on "Next" button, then the following error appears:
   
   

As a result of an EF Core issue, the ToDataSourceResult() is not able to perform the query when the DataSourceRequest object contains grouping.

The problem occurs using the query below, assembled by Telerik routine:

var temp = _db.Pessoa
    .OrderBy(item => item.Email)
    .Skip(0)
    .Take(40)
    .GroupBy(item => item.Email)
    .OrderBy(g => g.Key)
    .Select(g => new AggregateFunctionsGroup
    {
        Key = g.Key,
        ItemCount = g.Count(),
        HasSubgroups = false,
        Member = "Email",
        AggregateFunctionsProjection = new
        {
            Count_Referencia = _db.Pessoa
                    .Select(t => new
                    {
                        t.IdPessoa,
                        t.Referencia,
                        t.Nome_RazaoSocial,
                        t.Apelido_Fantasia,
                        t.CPF_CNPJ,
                        t.RG_IE,
                        t.Email
                    })
                    .OrderBy(item => item.Email)
                    .Where(item => item.Email == g.Key)
                    .Count()
        },
        Items = g
    })
    .ToList();

In the routine where the AggregateFunctionsGroup is created, the Items property must not only be the query itself, but also the fields specified in the main Select. Or, the call to the Select() method must simply be added:

var temp = _db.Pessoa
    .OrderBy(item => item.Email)
    .Skip(0)
    .Take(40)
    .GroupBy(item => item.Email)
    .OrderBy(g => g.Key)
    .Select(g => new AggregateFunctionsGroup
    {
        Key = g.Key,
        ItemCount = g.Count(),
        HasSubgroups = false,
        Member = "Email",
        AggregateFunctionsProjection = new
        {
            Count_Referencia = _db.Pessoa
                    .Select(t => new
                    {
                        t.IdPessoa,
                        ...
                    })
                    .OrderBy(item => item.Email)
                    .Where(item => item.Email == g.Key)
                    .Count()
        },
        Items = g.Select(t => new
        {
            t.IdPessoa,
            ...
        })
    })
    .ToList();

This way, the issue does not occur.

### Bug report

When loading a PDF file using the PDFViewer configured for DPL processing, the file content is loaded partially.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Open the DPL Processing Demo: https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/pdfviewer/dpl-processing

2) The file content is not loaded as expected.

The issue started to occur in version 2025.1.211. When comparing the responses of the "pdfviewer/getinitialpdf?pageNumber=1" request, the response when using the previous version (2024.4.1112) is longer than that of version 2025.1.211.

### Expected/desired behavior

The content of the loaded PDF file must be complete.

### Environment

* **Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core version 2025.1.211
* **Browser: [all]

Bug report

Reproduction of the problem

Dojo example: https://dojo.telerik.com/eRazIrIB

1. Scroll the Grid

Current behavior

The data is requested, but it is not displayed in the Grid.

Expected/desired behavior

The data is displayed, regardless of the type of loader used.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.3.913
• jQuery version: x.y
• Browser: [all ]

### Bug report

When deferring the component scripts to a file and a specified item of a Form HtmlHelper has a defined editor through the Editor() configuration, a client-side error is thrown:

"Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #"

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Enable the global deferred initialization.

2) Define a Form HtmlHelper with a ComboBox editor for one of its items:

@model FormViewModel

@(Html.Kendo().Form<FormViewModel>()
    .Name("form")
    .HtmlAttributes(new { action = @Url.Action("SubmitData", "Home"), method = "POST" })
    .FormData(Model)
    .Items(items =>
    {
        items.Add()
            .Field(f => f.Username)
            .Label(l => l.Text("Username:"));

        items.Add()
        .Field(f => f.City)
        .Label(l => l.Text("City"))
        .Editor(editor => editor
          .ComboBox()
          .DataTextField("Text")
          .DataValueField("Value")
          .BindTo(new List<SelectListItem>()
          {
            new SelectListItem() { Text = "City A", Value = "1" },
            new SelectListItem() { Text = "City B", Value = "2" },
            new SelectListItem() { Text = "City C", Value = "3" }
          })
        );
    })
)
@(Html.Kendo().DeferredScriptFile())

3) When the page with the Form is loaded, open the browser console and examine the error.  Review the content of the loaded kendo-deferred-scripts-xxxxx.js file - the ComboBox initialization script is included after the Form initialization script. Attached you can find screenshots.

When using the TagHelper version of the Form, the ComboBox initialization script is included in the kendo-deferred-scripts-xxxxx.js file before the initialization script of the Form with a unique generated "id" for example "3451ce77-2736-437f-9584-f5a5255902c2". In this case, no client-side errors occur.

### Expected/desired behavior

When deferring the component scripts to a file, the Form with specified editors must be initialized as expected without client-side errors.

### Workaround

Use the TagHelper version of the Form or define the editor by using the EditorTemplateView() option:

        items.Add()
        .Field(f => f.City)
        .Label(l => l.Text("City"))
        .EditorTemplateView(Html.Partial("ComboEditor"));

// ~/Views/Shared/ComboEditor.cshtml

@model FormViewModel

@(Html.Kendo().ComboBoxFor(m => m.City)
.DataTextField("Text")
.DataValueField("Value")
.BindTo(new List<SelectListItem>() {
	new SelectListItem() { Text = "City A", Value = "1" },
	new SelectListItem() { Text = "City B", Value = "2" },
	new SelectListItem() { Text = "City C", Value = "3" }
})
)

### Environment

* **Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core version: 2024.4.1112
* **Browser: [ all ]

Consider the use of TextWriter async methods for the HTML Helpers, for example the WriteInitializationScript methods.  In certain scenarios the use of the synchronous methods causes an exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Synchronous operations are disallowed. Call WriteAsync or set AllowSynchronousIO to true instead.

This can be resolved by explicitly enabling synchronous operations

services.Configure<IISServerOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.AllowSynchronousIO = true;
    });

though synchronous operations have been disabled by default at framework level as of .NET 3.0.

Bug report

When enabling Editing for the Grid or TreeList a "No License" overlay is displayed in the following scenarios:

Reproduction of the problem

• Grid: overlay is displayed on load

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<TelerikMvcApp13.Models.OrderViewModel>()
    .Name("grid")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(p => p.OrderID).Filterable(false);
        columns.Bound(p => p.Freight);
        columns.Bound(p => p.OrderDate).Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}");
        columns.Bound(p => p.ShipName);
        columns.Bound(p => p.ShipCity);
        columns.Command(c => c.Edit());
    })
    .Editable(e=>e.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp))
    .Pageable()
    .Sortable()
    .Scrollable()
    .Filterable()
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .PageSize(20)
        .Model(m=>m.Id(o=>o.OrderID))
        .Read(read => read.Action("Orders_Read", "Grid"))
        .Update(read => read.Action("Orders_Update", "Grid"))
        .Create(read => read.Action("Orders_Create", "Grid"))
        .Destroy(read => read.Action("Orders_Destroy", "Grid"))
    )
)

• TreeList: initially there is no overlay. Clicking on "Edit" button shows overlay and "No License" popup.

@(Html.Kendo().TreeList<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.TreeList.EmployeeDirectoryModelPopUp>()
    .Name("treelist")
    .Toolbar(toolbar => toolbar.Create())
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.FirstName).Width(220).Title("First Name");
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.LastName).Width(100).Title("Last Name");
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.Position);
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.HireDate).Format("{0:MMMM d, yyyy}");
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.Phone).Width(200);
        columns.Add().Field(e => e.Extension).Width(140).Title("Ext").Format("{0:#}");
        columns.Add().Width(300).Command(c =>
        {
            c.CreateChild().Text("Add child");
            c.Edit();
            c.Destroy();
        });
    })
    .Editable(e => e.Mode("popup"))
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Create(create => create.Action("Create", "EmployeeDirectory"))
        .Read(read => read.Action("All", "EmployeeDirectory"))
        .Update(update => update.Action("Update", "EmployeeDirectory"))
        .Destroy(delete => delete.Action("Destroy", "EmployeeDirectory"))
        .Model(m =>
        {
            m.Id(f => f.EmployeeId);
            m.ParentId(f => f.ReportsTo);
            m.Expanded(true);
            m.Field(f => f.FirstName);
            m.Field(f => f.LastName);
            m.Field(f => f.ReportsTo);
            m.Field(f => f.HireDate);
            m.Field(f => f.Extension).DefaultValue(0);
            m.Field(f => f.Position);
        })
    )
    .Height(540)
)

Expected/desired behavior

No overlay and popup should be displayed in case of valid license.
