Starting with version 2025.2.520, the toolbar tools like "Save changes" and "Cancel changes" are hidden by default. When the ShowInactiveTools(true) option is set, the inactive tools are displayed as disabled until a change in the Grid's data is made (for example, the tools are active when the edited cell is closed).

Is it possible to create an option that enables the previous behavior of the inactive toolbar tools - to keep the tools always active and visible no matter if there is a change or not?

For example:

.ToolBar(toolbar =>toolbar
            .Items(itm =>
            {
                itm.Create();
                itm.Save();
            })
            .EnableInactiveTools(true)
)

### Bug report

When using the default column checkbox filter menu and the data requested from the server takes time to load, the filter menu popup does not resize correctly when opening the menu for the first time.

The issue started to occur in version 2025.1.211.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Enable the checkbox filter menu of a specified column. The Grid binds to remote data and the data operations are perfomed on the server.

2) Open the filter menu when the Grid is loaded.

3) The Read request triggers and a loader is displayed to indicate that the data is loading:

4) The options are loaded, but the popup container does not expand as expected:

5) Close the filter menu and opend it again:

### Expected/desired behavior

The filter menu popup must display all options when the data is loaded.

### Workaround

<style>
     .k-animation-container-shown {
        overflow: visible !important;
    }
</style>

### Environment

* **Kendo UI version: 2025.2.520
* **jQuery version: 3.7.1
* **Browser: [all]

Bug report

The rowReorder event does not return the correct newIndex when dragging a row from a lower row index to a higher row index.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Run this dojo https://dojo.telerik.com/omyPpaZb
2. Drag Chai and drop after Chang. Note oldIndex is 0, newIndex is 2, which is unexpected as indices are 0-based

3. Re-run the dojo to start fresh and drag Chang and drop before Chai and the indices are correct - oldIndex: 1, newIndex: 0

Current behavior

The returned newIndex is incorrect.

Expected/desired behavior

The returned newIndex should be correct.

Environment

Hi,

I'm following this document to load data into the grid view control using local data binding.

https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/grid/local-data-binding 

I'm not sure this is an issue or expected grid view behavior when using local data binding. If loader-type and no-records are added. What happens is when there are no records, the Skeleton is still displayed and the no-records template is not displayed (see the attached image)

<kendo-grid mobile="Disabled" name="Grid" loader-type="GridLoaderType.Skeleton">
 <columns>
 <column field="ProductName" title="Product Name">
 </column>
 <column field="UnitPrice" format="{0:C}" title="Unit Price" width="130">
 </column>
 <column field="UnitsInStock" title="Units In Stock" width="130">
 </column>
 <column field="Discontinued" title="Discontinued" width="130">
 </column>
 </columns>
 <datasource type="DataSourceTagHelperType.Ajax" page-size="20" server-operation="false" data="@Model">
 </datasource>
 <filterable enabled="true">
 </filterable>
 <scrollable enabled="true" />
 <pageable enabled="true">
 </pageable>
 <sortable enabled="true" />
<no-records template="string HTML template, automatically centered" />
</kendo-grid>

Thanks

Bob

### Bug report

When using the sort" and "filter" toolbar commands, the "sort" and "filter" events do not trigger.

### Reproduction of the problem

* **jQuery version: 3.7.1
* **Browser: [all]

### Bug report

The "Clear Sorting" and "Clear all filters" labels cannot be localized when using the "sort" and "filter" toolbar commands.

### Reproduction of the problem

A Dojo sample for reporduction: https://dojo.telerik.com/JHJGUaSH

### Expected/desired behavior

The "Clear Sorting" and "Clear all filters" messages should be exposed for localization.

### Bug report

When opening the filter menu of a specified column through the classic ColumnMenu, the filter container is displayed with scrollbars when the dropdown of the filter operator is opened.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Define a Grid and enable its classic ColumnMenu.

2) Open the filter menu of a specified column and then open the dropdown to select a filter operator.

3) The filter container has scrollbars. The "k-menu-popup" element has "overflow: auto";

Use the following demo to test the case and select the "classic" type for the ColumnMenu: https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/column-menu

The issue does not appear when using version 2024.4.1112.

### Expected/desired behavior

The filter menu container must not change its appearance when the dropdown opens.

### Workaround:

<style>
.k-menu-popup {
    overflow: visible !important;
}
</style>

Bug report

The Core Grid throws an exception when setting its toolbar template through the ClientTemplateId option. The issue is a regression introduced in version 2025.2.520.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Configure the toolbar of the Grid like this:

.ToolBar(toolbar => {
     toolbar.ClientTemplateId("myTemplate");
})

Current behavior

An exception is thrown:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Expected/desired behavior

The configuration works without throwing exceptions.

Wokraround

Use the alternative way of setting the toolbar template, on the Grid's root level:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid <MyModel>()
      .Name("grid")
      .ToolBarClientTemplateId("myTemplate")

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2025.2.520
• Browser: [all]

Bug report

Expose additional API configurations for the Grid's ToolBar

Reproduction of the problem

As of recent releases, the Kendo UI Grid Toolbar has been substituted with the Kendo UI Toolbar. This change allows users to add the majority ToolBar.items API options apart from the built-in tools.

As noted within the Kendo UI for jQuery API documentation for the Grid's Toolbar:

"Apart from the built-in tools, the Grid fully exposes the ToolBar.items API. This way you can specify any custom tools in the widget using the components available in the ToolBar itself."

Current behavior

The inherited ToolBar.items API options are not available for the server-side Telerik UI Grid for ASP.NET Core and MVC wrappers as well.

Expected/desired behavior

It would be beneficial to the customers if the inherited ToolBar.items API options are available for the server-side Telerik UI Grid for ASP.NET Core and MVC wrappers as well.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2024.1.130
• Browser: [all]

Enhancement

Expose the sorts TagHelper for the Grid's column filter datasource taghelper

Overview

Currently, the Grid's Column Filter Datasource Taghelper exposes the following inner child TagHelpers.

Unlike its HtmlHelper counterpart which happens to expose the .Sort() API configuration. For example:

.Columns(columns =>
{
    columns.Bound(p => p.ShipName).Filterable(ftb =>
    {
        ftb.Multi(true);
        ftb.Search(true);
        ftb.CheckAll(true);
        ftb.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
            .Custom()
            ...
            .Sort(sort =>
            {
                sort.Add("ShipName").Ascending();
            })
        );
    });
})

I'm in the process of rewriting all Kendo components to use CSP compatible templates. I'm looking at https://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-core/html-helpers/template/overview which shows how we'd use TemplateComponentName() for popup editors and that we would need to rewrite everything in the popup editor to use Kendo Template's AddHtml or AddComponent methods.

Original:

<div class="mb-2 row required">
	@Html.LabelFor(model => model.FileName, new { @class = "col-sm-4 col-form-label fw-bold text-sm-end" })
	<div class="col-sm-6">
		@(Html.Kendo().TextBoxFor(model => model.FileName).HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "w-100" }))
	</div>
</div>

<div class="mb-2 row">
	@Html.LabelFor(model => model.FileDescription, new { @class = "col-sm-4 col-form-label fw-bold text-sm-end" })
	<div class="col-sm-6">
		@(Html.Kendo().TextBoxFor(model => model.FileDescription).HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "w-100" }))
	</div>
</div>

Rewritten:

@(Html.Kendo().Template()
	.AddHtml("<div class='mb-2 row required'>")
	.AddHtml(@<text>
		@Html.LabelFor(model => model.FileName, new { @class = "col-sm-4 col-form-label fw-bold text-sm-end" })
	</text>)
	.AddHtml("<div class='col-sm-6'>")
	.AddComponent(c => c.TextBoxFor(model => model.FileName).HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "w-100" }))
	.AddHtml("</div></div>")

	.AddHtml("<div class='mb-2 row'>")
	.AddHtml(@<text>
		@Html.LabelFor(model => model.FileDescription, new { @class = "col-sm-4 col-form-label fw-bold text-sm-end" })
	</text>)
	.AddHtml("<div class='col-sm-6'>")
	.AddComponent(c => c.TextBoxFor(model => model.FileDescription).HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "w-100" }))
	.AddHtml("</div></div>")
)

While this works, this markup seems much harder to read than the original. Could this be made to be simpler? Ideally I'd like to be able to drop my existing mix of html and kendo components in one method and it'd parse through to render the template properly.

### 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]

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

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 ]

The grid must allow changes to be made in specific cells, without those changes being committed/saved unless the user clicks on the "Save" button in the toolbar. Basically the users enter in some values for editable currency columns that aren't locked, and (without saving) some columns (both locked and not locked) that are not editable must be refreshed as the value in those cells depend on the edited column. Those cells have client templates and client footer templates which need to be used by whatever is refreshing their cells.

Having this functionality provided built-in will be a nice addition:
https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/knowledge-base/grid-update-particular-row-without-refresh

Bug report

The column format applied through the .Format() option is ignored, if the column is bound to a nullable DateOnly field.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Declare a nullable DateOnly field in the view model:

public DateOnly? PaymentDate { get; set; }

2. Bind a column to the field and set its format:

columns.Bound(p => p.PaymentDate).Title("Date").Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}").Width(160);

Current behavior

The specified format is ignored, e.g., the Grid shows 2025-01-21, instead of 01/21/2025

Expected/desired behavior

The specified column format is applied.
