Create a general purpose component to allow dragging and dropping of other components or files from the filesystem. Expose events that let us get access to the files that were dropped so that we can access the contents of those files or send them off to be uploaded.
Currently in Blazor we can do this with the InputFile component. But I would like the ability to create a droppable UI and have any kind of child content in it. And also get at the file content of files dropped.
Working with UI Blazor version 3.0.0
Setting a sort descriptor in the OnStateInitHandler.
Everything works, but I need to customize the sort. I need "A" and "a" to sort the same. I also need blanks to sort at the bottom. A custom sort method. Can't figure out how to implement a SortCompare, can't find an example.
Here's what I have
SortDescriptors = new List<SortDescriptor>()Is it possible to add to the carousel a thumbnail scrollable navigation below the "page/image"? I'm thinking this would be a nice addition, which would allow independent scrolling from that of the current page and also be clickable in the same way that the dots are in order to jump to the selected page.

The knowledge base article is now live - "Carousel Thumbnail Scrollable Navigation".

In order to be able to easily work on mobile (tablet) and desktop browsers using touch it would be great if tree view supported multi select through a single click to select and click to unselect option without the need to hold down the ctrl key or anything like that
This can be worked around currently implementing a TreeView template and then the OnClick event to allow custom tracking of selected and unselected items but this feels like a common enough requirement for touch support that it would be great to support out of the box with the control
Incremental Search A grid that can be searched incrementally as one types in the search box.
On-demand Sort It should have the ability to do a toggle between ascending and descending sort order when the user taps on a column header.
Pagination It should provide customizable pagination so only one page worth of data is fetched at any given time.
Did I describe the jQuery Datatable functionality? It is because it is so good and having the equivalent of its server-side implementation equivalent in Blazor will be awesome.
Implementation Thoughts The control sends a predefined model to an event bound function as parameter. The model has the information like requested page, column-sort request, letters the user typed into the search box etc. The function fetches data based on the model and the grid updates dynamically.
Provide ability to define icons for input prefix and suffix. Thus, provide mechanism for built-in validation icon as well.
Example image with suffix icons to give you better perspective of the feature.
I would like to use the new structs that are part of .NET6 - the DateOnly and TimeOnly.
Their support should extend to all respective date and time pickers and more complex components like the Grid, Gantt, Scheduler, and other applicable components.
The demos and examples for storing and retrieving GRID state uses the JavaScript localStorage.setItem and localStorage.getItem that work great. As part of .NET 5 there's a Microsoft equivalent for accessing Local Storage using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Server.ProtectedBrowserStorage. I've found the behavior of these demos and examples will not work by simply replacing the JavaScript with .NET equivalents. My experience is getting Circuit Handler exceptions that make these example not work.
Although not a requirement since there's a JavaScript solution for local storage, I would like to recommend that since you partner closely with .NET team at Microsoft. That your GRID development team test and provide examples with the Microsoft .NET 5 out-of-the-box local storage solution and resolve any incompatibilities for developers not wanting to use 1st party local storage solutions embedded within Microsoft Blazor.

ADMIN EDIT
I made a sample test and things seemed to work for me, so I made a public example, you can find it in this pull request until it gets merged. I'm also attaching it to this post, but for anyone seeing this after a time - the public repository linked above is a better place to look for this in case more updates and information have been added since the time of writing this.

I am implementing custom filtering by column in a data grid. The data source is very large so the filtering will be done by a stored procedure in the database. In order to avoid excessive calls to the procedure it would be great if the TextBox had a DebounceDelay property like the one in the SearchBox.

ADMIN EDIT
While not technically useful for the grid itself (see the bottom of this thread for more ideas and information on that, a built-in feature is coming there as well), there can be benefit in adding that to the inputs (e.g., the Editor has something like that already by default because it is designed for large content).
Thus, I am reopening this so we can gauge the interest.
In the meantime, using a few lines of application code can achieve debouncing of expensive api calls. Using the OnChange or OnBlur event may also be suitable workarounds, depending on the goal you are after.

globally for Telerik Blazor controls/inputs components we would prefer the ability to assign aria attributes. This will enable my organisation's user experience to improve for people relying on screen readers.
aria-labelledby will enable us to stack labels for inputs in a group.
aria-describedby will enable us to provide additional information in context to an input, without the need for users to jump out of the input and find it.
I would like to use scaffolding with Telerik UI for Blazor
**Admin Edit**
The plan is to be released in 3.3.0 release once extensions are thorougly tested.

Hi,
we are having a hard time to come up with a general application layout (menu/navigation).
We found PanelBar, Menu and Drawer... are there any other controls related to menu & navigation?
A more UX oriented documentation (and not only for the technical components individually) would be nice e.g. like they do it here: Overview | Clarity Design System
Kind regards
Steffen
It would be nice to switch the color schemes used by the telerik Blazor components on-the-fly in an application (i.e. switch from light mode to dark mode). I realize you have a JS approach to this problem, however that requires maintaining multiple stylesheets and custom javascript, which we are trying to avoid in a Blazor project. I like the approach used by MudBlazor where basically all css colors are variables that can be easily switched at runtime without any javascript:

There doesn't seem to be a way to deselect the selected row either by clicking on a selected row again or by two-way-binding and setting it to an empty list.
This would be pretty handy as currently the only way that makes sense for me is to make no use of selection mode at all.
