Currently, when dynamically appending menu items using the append() method, there is no built-in support to specify an icon via an icon, iconClass, or similar property — unlike other Kendo UI components such as kendo.ui.Button, which allow this directly.

To include an icon today, we must use inline HTML within the text property and set encoded: false, like so:

menu.append({
    text: '<span class="k-icon k-i-plus"></span> Add Item',
    encoded: false
});

While this workaround functions, it's not as clean or consistent as using a dedicated iconClass or icon option.

Please consider adding official support for an iconClass, icon, or similar property when using append() with kendo.ui.Menu, aligning it with how other Kendo components handle icons.

This would:

• Improve API consistency across Kendo components.
• Simplify code for dynamic menu updates.
• Eliminate reliance on raw HTML and manual encoding flags.

### 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]

In this screenshot, End Date and Subm Is Open are "nested" properties, and Prod Date and Is LatestVersion are *not* nested.  The row filter functionality is not displaying the correct row filter widget.

Here's a data sample:

This just seems like a minor oversight since the Enable(bool) method exists on the DatePicker html helper and other Kendo taghelpers support the enable or enabled attribute, but there doesn't seem to be an enable-like attribute for the kendo-datepicker. Thanks!

<kendo-datepicker for="ReadOnlyDate" enable="false"></kendo-datepicker>

REPL to reproduce the problem following the steps below: https://netcorerepl.telerik.com/wSYNlmbA55iBcMhu20

Steps to reproduce

Type "wil" to get suggestions:


Hit tab to accept the first suggestion.

Click the arrow to display the list of options:


Observe the list of unrelated options, and the textbox now containing the value of the first option listed:

Additional information

The "normal" read request sends what is ultimately handled as a DataSourceRequest object in the controller that includes (among other things) information on how the data should be sorted. The "value mapper" request, on the other hand, sends only the raw values that need to be mapped (without any information on how they are being sorted by the DataSource). As a result, the positional index returned to the value mapper is incorrect if/when the data is sorted differently.

For example, the "normal" read request calls the controller action, it retrieves data [A, C, D, B], and the DataSourceRequest is applied to sort it as [A, B, C, D] and this is how it's displayed in the dropdown list. If the value "B" needs to be mapped, the "value mapper" request calls a similar (but different) controller action, it retrieves the same set of data [A, C, D, B] but does not make any attempt to sort it, finds "B" in the list (#4), and this is returned to the component (which then sets the dropdown's selectedIndex = 4, but in the dropdown's sorted list of data, this corresponds with the value "D", not "B" [which would be 2]).

### Bug report

When the Grid is grouped by a specified column, and this column has a "groupFooterTemplate" that contains aggregates from other fields, it cannot be exported to Excel. It throws a JavaScript exception.

### Reproduction of the problem

1) Group the Grid by the column "ProductName".

2) Export it to Excel through the built-in command "Export to Excel".

3) JS exception is thrown.

A Dojo sample for reproduction: https://dojo.telerik.com/UyUruyOZ

### Expected/desired behavior

The Excel export should work as expected when the Grid is grouped.

### Environment

* **Kendo UI version: 2022.2.802
* **jQuery version: 1.12.4

### Bug report

The click event of the SplitButton in the Toolbar does not trigger when displayed in the overflow menu.

**Regression introduced with R1 2023**

### Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the ToolBar Events demo.
2. Resize the Toolbar to render the SplitButton in the overflow menu.
3. Open the overflow menu and click a specified SplitButton item.

### Current behavior

The "splitButtonClickHandler" handler does not fire.

### Expected/desired behavior

The SplitButton click event must fire when the button is rendered in the Toolbar overflow menu.

### Environment

* **Kendo UI version: 2024.2.514

Is it possible to implement an option that enables the paging of the Grid View?

For example:

@(Html.Kendo().FileManager()
    .Name("filemanager")
     .Views(gridView => gridView.Grid(grid => grid.Pageable()))
     ...
)

Currently, the ToCamelCase() method lowers only the first letter, as per the example below:

Is it possible to create another overload of the ToCamelCase() method that transforms the string to "randomStatusId"?

Hi this is a pretty basic bug. But I am using the k-i-cancel icon class but for some reason it is showing the settings icon?

If I manually enter the date in the cell the model binder parses the date as it was not an UTC and since my time zone is +2h it comes in the controller as 25.12.2021 22:00

(see the attached files)

Inside my startup.cs I have defined JsonOptions like this:

.AddNewtonsoftJson(options =>
                {
                    options.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver = new DefaultContractResolver();
                    options.SerializerSettings.DateTimeZoneHandling = DateTimeZoneHandling.Utc;
                });

In the Configure method:

var supportedCultures = new[] { new CultureInfo("bg-BG") };

app.UseRequestLocalization(new RequestLocalizationOptions
{
         DefaultRequestCulture = new RequestCulture("bg-BG"),
         SupportedCultures = supportedCultures,
         SupportedUICultures = supportedCultures
});

<script src="~/lib/kendo/js/cultures/kendo.culture.bg-BG.min.js"></script>

<script>
        kendo.culture("bg-BG");
</script>

I am using the Grid with two editor template bound to viewdata to populate the components.

Now this is code that I wrote in 2017 that I recent upgraded to .NET 7 ASP Core and has work all those years with no issue. So I think this may be a regression in the grid code.

I have embedded the relevant code leaving out the grid views custom javascript since it isn't relevant.

The behavior that I am seen is that the the grids model properties that do NOT use a customer editor template are not being bound when the save event fires.

public class AlertRuleGridViewModel
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [UIHint("ComponentEditor")]
    public string? Component { get; set; }

    [UIHint("EmailAddress")]
    public string? Email { get; set; }

    [UIHint("TypeEditor")]
    public string? Type { get; set; }

    [UIHint("Boolean")]
    public bool Enabled { get; set; }
}

<div class="container alert-rules-grid">
    @(Html.Kendo().Grid<AlertRuleGridViewModel>()
        .Name("alert-grid")
        .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Model(model =>
        {
            model.Id(l => l.Id);
            model.Field(field => field.Id).Editable(false);
            model.Field(field => field.Type).DefaultValue(ViewData["defaultType"] as String);
        })
        .PageSize(12)
        .Sort(a => a.Add("Id").Descending())
        .Read(read => read.Action("GetRules", "Alerts").Data("additionalData"))
        .Create(update => update.Action("UpdateRule", "Alerts"))
        .Update(update => update.Action("UpdateRule", "Alerts"))
        .Destroy(destroy => destroy.Action("DeleteRule", "Alerts"))
        .Events(e => e.Error("gridErrorHandler"))
        )
        .Columns(columns =>
        {
            columns.Bound(b => b.Id).Title("Id").Visible(true).Width("4%");
            columns.Bound(b => b.Component).Title("Component").EditorTemplateName("ComponentEditor").Visible(true);
            columns.Bound(b => b.Email).Title("Email").Visible(true);
            columns.Bound(b => b.Type).Title("Log Type").EditorTemplateName("TypeEditor").Visible(true);
            columns.Bound(b => b.Enabled).Title("Enabled").ClientTemplate("#=renderStatus(data)#").Visible(true);
            columns.Command(command =>
            {
                command.Edit();
                command.Destroy();
            });
        }
        )
        .ToolBar(toolBar =>
        {
            toolBar.ClientTemplateId("toolBarTemplate");
        })
        .Events(events =>
        {
            events.Cancel("onCancelEdit");
            events.Save("onSave");
        }
        )
        .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.InLine))
        .Pageable() // Enable paging
        .Sortable() // Enable sorting
        .Scrollable(s => s.Height("auto"))
        .Resizable(resize => resize.Columns(true))
        )
</div>

As per the subject, if you use jQuery to get a Kendo TabStrip in a ComboBox change event it inserts this div into the TabStrip control:

<div class="k-tabstrip-items-wrapper k-hstack">
    <ul class="k-tabstrip-items k-reset" role="tablist"></ul>
</div>

This used to work as we were changing the selected tab in a TabStrip based on a ComboBox selection, but this no longer works. Please see the following REPL where a new div is added every time you change the ComboBox value:

https://netcorerepl.telerik.com/mxETafaT24zWOe0C50

Kind regards,

If I put the Grid into a kendo-template for the TileLayout control, the ClientTemplate does not work properly. It only gets called once regardless of the number of items in the grid and the data is not being passed in. 

This is my column definition:

columns.Bound(c => c.DocumentKey).Title(" ").ClientTemplate("#=CommandTemplate(data)#").Width(70);

And I am calling the .ToClientTemplate() on the Grid. Everything else work great except for this one issue.

I have not been able to find any other info, so what am I missing?

Bug report

The StringExtensions -> ToCamelCase method(part of Kendo.Mvc.Extenstions) doesn't return the expected Camel case result.

• More details in ticket # 1458202

Reproduction of the problem

Include the Kendo.Mvc.Extenstions namespace. Define the following in a controller:

        public IActionResult Index()
        {
            string test = "RANDOMStatusId";
            test = test.ToCamelCase();

            return View();
        }

Set a debugger and see the value of the "test" variable.

Current behavior

The returned from the ToCamelCase() method value is "rANDOMStatusId"

Expected/desired behavior

The expected result returned from the ToCamelCase() method value is "randomStatusId"

Environment

Dear Telerik

The feature is related to https://www.telerik.com/account/support-center/view-ticket/1594775 this thread.

It is related to a product environment.

Scenario:

1. Save grid options in persistent storage (i.e. DB).
2. Grid operates successfully and return visits operate well with stored options being loaded with the grid.
3. Then the grid column structure or some other feature is amended during a maintenance and development request - the feature setting is contained within the stored options which are loaded with the grid. The grid functions without some of the changes because the options override the changes.
4. Behavior is unwanted so we would have to merge the new options and the old options.

Request:

Please can Telerik create functionality along the lines of:

$("#SomeGrid").data("kendoGrid").setOptions($("#SomeGrid").data("kendoGrid").mergeOptions(OptionsSaved, OptionsNew));

KR

David
