There should be capabilities to group parent resources to selected child resources

Currently the Scheduler groups all child resources under each parent resource.
Example Resources:
Parent resources: New York Tennis Club, California Tennis Club
Child Resources: Court 1, Court 2, Court 1, Court 2, Court 3, Court 4

Currently the Scheduler groups parent and child resources as:
- New York Tennis Club is grouped with Court 1, Court 2, Court 1 and Court 2, Court 3, Court 4
- California Tennis Club is grouped with Court 1, Court 2, Court 1, Court 2, Court 3 and Court 4

I would like the capability to group parent resources with selected child resources, in my situation im trying to achieve this structure of grouping:

Desired Grouped Resources:
- New York Tennis Club is grouped with Court 1 and Court 2
- California Tennis Club is grouped with Court 1, Court 2, Court 3 and Court 4.

If you look at the Syncfusion Scheduler, they have this feature, it would be nice if the Telerik/Kendo Scheduler could do this..

If you look at the link i provided below, you can see that the Syncfusion Scheduler allows multiple resource groups which has the capability to group parent resources to selected child resources.

Syncfusion Scheduler Demo shows:
Room 1 is grouped to Nancy and Michael
Room 2 is grouped with Steven

Add all of the supported Grid column properties to the GridColumnSettings class. Currently, only some of the options are added, which creates limitations when the LoadSettings option is used:

Include an x.js as well as x.min.js files in the upgrades. MVC's bundle config by default does not include the .min file in debug mode.

Bug report

Reproduction of the problem

1. Visual Studio 2019 version 16.8.3 (or another version the extension works with)
2. Install the Scaffolder extension.
3. In a sample Terlerik ASP.NET MVC Application verify that the Kendo Scaffolder and its configuration panel work as expected.
4. Update Visual Studio to version 16.9.2.

Current behavior

The Kendo Scaffolder is no longer available in the Add New Scaffolded Item dialog.

Expected/desired behavior

The Kendo Scaffolder works as intended.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2021.1.224
• jQuery version: x.y
• Browser: [all]

Ability to hide buttons like edit based on conditions should be straight forward like this:

command(cmd => cmd.Custom("Edit").Click("blah").Visible(condition => condition.Status == "Current")

Kendo UI MVC server-side wrappers are much more easier to work with but not possible to do a full SPA application and UI experience is slow.

Can you come with an idea to allow development using server-side wrappers but then deploy application as client-side SPA converting  server-side wrappers to client-side SPA code?

Currently telerik MVC grid with DateTime column render datetime in local time zone. Nothing but if browser is accessing the site from CST time zone, grid automatically converting EST time to CST and shows value in CST.  We have seen workaround as saving and showing data in UTC format. However this is not acceptable for some business scenarios.
It’s better to have option to enforce grid to render date time as is input data. So that it will show consistent date time irrespective of local time zone.  

It would be nice if grid could load edit and create forms from server side by get request.and then save them by post request. it would be much more easier if  some fields in edit/create form could be saved without  loading in grid. 
And also there would be much better control on load data if it is possible to check some conditions in edit form through server.
At the end I suggest to change grid widget to:
@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Model>()
  .DataSource(ds => ds
    .Ajax()
    .Read(r => r.Action("FillGrid", "Controller"))
    .GetCreateForm(c => c.Action("Create", "Controller", "Get"))
    .Create(c => c.Action("Create", "Controller", "Post"))
    .GetEditForm(u => u.Action("Edit", "Controller", "Get"))
    .Update(u => u.Action("Edit", "Controller", "Post"))
)

To have a consistent look in grids toolbar, it should be possible to add an icon class to custom buttons. Not possible through .HtmlAttributes() because those gets applied to the wrapper link and kendo icons are displayed via inner span tag.

.ToolBar(toolbar =>
    {
        toolbar.Create(); // Has [+]-Icon
        toolbar.Custom().Text("My Custom Button"); // Does not have an icon
    }

Would be nice to have an option like

toolbar.Custom().Text("Reset Grid Settings").Icon("k-i-funnel-clear");

which results in 

<a href="/Tarife" class="k-button k-button-icontext">
    <span class="k-icon k-i-funnel-clear"></span>
    Reset Grid Settings
</a>

I think it would be more helpful if the Kendo UI Documentation is structured similarly to other Telerik Product Documentations where each control (widget) provides a complete overview, visual structure, getting started, and a how-to section (which I'm guessing is a compiled list of frequently asked scenarios).  I'm struggling/spending too much time having to research how to do (what should be) the simplest things with these widgets.  It seems that' I'm having to revert to the Demo's and online threads more than the documentation.. that' can't be good!

When you export a sheet to Excel the Sheet is export as not-protected.  If there are cells that are locked then the user can edit them.  It would be really useful if you could specify tha a sheet were protected and when the sheet is exported it would be protected with a password.

I find ButtonGroup for mobile framework very useful to desktop (classic) web application too.

Could you add this widget to web framework please?

An important configuration is to choose if have comportament like "checkboxlist" or "radiobuttonlist", and for sure its orientation, vertical or horizontal. 

Create an mvc reportviewer control for MVC so that you don't have to hack it with an aspx page inside of razor view engine. Should work similar to the devexpress mvc reportviewer control.

Here is how the support team explained the priority of what editor template is used in the MVC grid:
"Actually the behavior is if the EditorTemplateName method is not used to specify template then the ForeignKey editor template is used. If the EditorTemplateName method is used - the template which is passed is used. If there is no such template, it fallbacks and uses the UIHint attribute or if there is not such the default one is used."

I'd think the priory should be:
1.)  If EditorTemplateName is specified, use that,
2.)  If UIHint in Model class is specified, use that,
3.)  Then use default editor template (i.e. ForeignKey.cshtml)

The Telerik MVC wrappers do not innovate at the same pace as Kendo UI Proper. They are missing attributes and actions that are available in the javascript versions, and it is plain to see that some features will be added when you guys "get around to it".

It would be so much better for customers if you guys would post the code to the Telerik organization on GitHub, and make it private, then allow customers to sign CLAs and have access to the source. That way, those of us (like myself) who have added new features and are maintaining their own branches internally can submit PRs to add our own value to a product we pay a heck of a lot of money for.

I personally would be able to close at least 5 requests on this forum from submitted pull requests, just in work I've already done.

Thanks for your consideration.

I would expect a fluent method chain to not produce side effects when a method is invoked more than once.  particularly, concerning the ability to apply HtmlAttributes more than once to a method chain.  This prevents me from implementing meaningful extension methods to promote a DRY approach to views. 

In particular, I am trying to do something like this:

public static TextBoxBuilder<TProperty> PasswordFor<TModel, TProperty>(this WidgetFactory<TModel> widgetFactory, Expression<Func<TModel, TProperty>> expression)
        {
            return widgetFactory.TextBoxFor(expression).HtmlAttributes(new { type = "password" });
        }

        public static TextBoxBuilder<TModel> AutoFocus<TModel>(this TextBoxBuilder<TModel> builder)
        {
            return builder.HtmlAttributes(new { autofocus = true });
        }


I am finding that because the HTML attributes is cleared in your base implementation.. 

this.Component.HtmlAttributes.Clear();


it doesn't support an aggregation of attributes, but instead it's last-man-in.   that defeats the purpose of extensibility and effectively insists upon repetition and sort of brittle design that a copy/paste architecture results in.

I would believe it be completely acceptable to give the last-attribute-applied precedence and overwrite the value, but the reality is that we're talking about basic key/value pairs, and it shouldn't be difficult to merge the attributes as they are built.   best case, right now i have to implement my own derivation of the WidgetBuilderBase and implement an extension method off the WidgetFactory that bootstraps my functionality - certainly not a stretch, but more work than should probably be necessary.



   
    public virtual TBuilder HtmlAttributes(object attributes)
    {
      return this.HtmlAttributes(ObjectExtensions.ToDictionary(attributes));
    }

    public virtual TBuilder HtmlAttributes(IDictionary<string, object> attributes)
    {
      this.Component.HtmlAttributes.Clear();
      Kendo.Mvc.Extensions.DictionaryExtensions.Merge(this.Component.HtmlAttributes, attributes);
      return this as TBuilder;
    }

The tools should have all the options as the javascript for example: Gantt custom views can only be used if you use the JavaScript version.  The lack of full support defeats the point of buying a MVC wrapper.
