Hi - this one is a feature request, not a bug. :)

For the filter menu, when you enter a filter value, it would be nice if you could press enter to execute the filter instead of having to click "Filter."

The feature request is to be able to customize the GridCsvExportOptions and GridExcelExportOptions from the API methods -

• ExportToExcelAsync
• ExportToCsvAsync
• SaveAsExcelFileAsync
• SaveAsCsvFileAsync

It will be useful to be able to customize the columns and data to be exported.

Telerik edit:

A possible workaround is to click the built-in Grid export buttons with JavaScript. With this approach, you will be able to use the built-in export options and events. Here is a REPL example.

Please consider extending the GridColumn component to include fine-grained header presentation properties, such as:

• HeaderAlignment (e.g., Left, Center, Right)
• WrapHeaderText (bool)
• HeaderTooltip or HeaderAdornmentTemplate
  

These enhancements would dramatically improve clarity and usability in complex data grids.

Why This Is Important

In enterprise-grade applications — like ERP dashboards, financial reporting, or cutover schedules — grids are dense and loaded with meaning. Users rely heavily on headers to interpret the data beneath, especially when:

• Column headers are long or require abbreviations.
• Users need contextual guidance without clutter.
• Alignment improves visual scanning and aesthetics.

Would like a parameter in the grid definition that would display a Clear/Refresh button to return the grid to all originally selected records.  This feature would work similar to the Excel clear filter function.  

===

TELERIK EDIT: To reset the Grid filters, you can clear the FilterDescriptors collection and the SearchFilter property in the Grid state. Here is an example:

https://blazorrepl.telerik.com/cfEoatOr000uBdgW48

    private TelerikGrid<Product>? GridRef { get; set; }

    private async Task ClearGridFilters()
    {
        var gridState = GridRef!.GetState();

        gridState.FilterDescriptors = new List<IFilterDescriptor>();
        gridState.SearchFilter = default;

        await GridRef.SetStateAsync(gridState);
    }

Please add a built-in way to define a list of predefined filters (filter presets) within the ToolbarTemplate of a grid. This would allow users to quickly select a filter configuration, which is then automatically applied to the grid’s DataSourceRequest.

Why This Is InvaluablE

In enterprise apps with dense, multi-column grids, users often need to:

• Filter to common scenarios (e.g., “My Tasks”, “Due This Week”, “Unassigned Only”).
• Avoid re-entering the same filters repeatedly.
• See role- or context-based presets applied consistently

Currently, implementing this requires custom filter logic, state management, and manual data reloading — even though the concept is straightforward from a user’s perspective.

Please add support for a right-side filter panel (sidebar) that dynamically renders filter controls based on the grid’s visible columns and their editor templates. The panel would allow users to apply multiple filters at once, similar to SharePoint’s column filter experience — in a tall, narrow layout with an “Apply Filters” button.

Why This Matters

While column-level filters are useful, in real-world business apps:

• Users often want to set multiple filters at once without interacting with tiny filter icons.
• They need to see all available filters in one place — especially in cutover task lists, audit views, or reporting grids.
• This UI pattern is familiar from tools like SharePoint, Power BI, and Microsoft Lists.

Please add a ToolbarTitle property to grid components, with an optional ToolbarTitleTooltip or ToolbarTitleAdornmentTemplate. This would allow developers to display a title with optional help text directly in the toolbar — giving users immediate context on the data being displayed.

Why This Is Valuable

In enterprise apps — particularly in areas like dashboards, scheduling, and ERP grids — users are often viewing:

• Similar grids across multiple tabs or modules
• Role-specific data views (e.g., “My Open Tasks”, “Org View Only”)
• Filtered subsets or critical cutover lists

Providing a toolbar-level title with a subtle help icon improves discoverability and reduces confusion — especially when filters or dynamic data shaping is in play.

I need to know which cell the user right clicked on so I can adjust my context menu. I need the cell value, the row model and the field of the column.

The following KB article shows a solution you can use immediately: https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/knowledge-base/grid-which-cell-context-menu.

Please add a feature to export the grid to a PDF file.

---

ADMIN EDIT

We have made two examples you can use for the time being to get a PDF document from the grid:

• server-side export - getting the grid data request and using some application code to generate the file: https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/grid/pdf-export-server
• client-side export through Kendo libraries in the browser only: https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/common/pdf-jpg-export-js

I set the GridColumn DisplayFormat="{0: yyyy-MM-dd}" and the data reflects that format. The default filter control doesn't. How can I make the control do that?

---

ADMIN EDIT

For the time being, the way to affect the filter behavior is through a custom filter template. The format for date pickers and numeric textboxes comes from the app culture settings (see more here). You may also want to Follow this idea for easier selection of a default filter operator and limiting the filter operators choices.

Feature Request

Currently, when a grid is rendered with 500 rows in a WASM application and expand/collapse action is initiated, it takes a few seconds to finish grouping and rendering. 

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a grid in WASM app.
2. Add 500 rows.
3. Do not enable paging.
4. Group by any field and initiate expand/collapse.
5. All rows are re-rendered which leads to a few seconds delay.

With OnRead, AllPages cannot be exported because the grid Data only has the current page: https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/components/grid/export/excel#notes:

If you are using the OnRead event, only the current page of data will be exported, because that's all the grid has at the time of the export action.

I load my data via "OnRead", because i need to implement pagination by myself, and I would like the export option to work with that too.

I have a grid with the excell Export. Now I have two custom Export buttons on the Page (Over and under the Grid).

Can I somehow trigger the Grid Excell Export command Manually?

ADMIN EDIT

Here is a workaround - a bit of JS to click the desired button and the second snippet shows how to invoke it from a blazor component and code.

 <script>
        function clickButton(selector) {
            var btn = document.querySelector(selector);
            if (btn && btn.click) {
                btn.click();
            }
        }
    </script>

@inject IJSRuntime _js

<style>
    /* hide the built-in button if you like */
    .myExcelExportButton {
        display:none;
    }
</style>

<button @onclick="@MyExternalExportTrigger">my external export button</button>

<TelerikGrid Data="@GridData" Pageable="true" Sortable="true" Resizable="true" Reorderable="true"
             FilterMode="@GridFilterMode.FilterRow" Groupable="true"
             Class="@GridClass">
    <GridToolBar>
        <GridCommandButton Class="@ExportBtnClass" Command="ExcelExport" Icon="@IconName.FileExcel">Export to Excel</GridCommandButton>
        <label><TelerikCheckBox @bind-Value="@ExportAllPages" />Export All Pages</label>
    </GridToolBar>
    <GridExport>
        <GridExcelExport FileName="telerik-grid-export" AllPages="@ExportAllPages" />
    </GridExport>

    <GridColumns>
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.ProductId)" Title="ID" Width="100px" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.ProductName)" Title="Product Name" Width="300px" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.UnitsInStock)" Title="In stock" Width="100px" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.Price)" Title="Unit Price" Width="200px" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.Discontinued)" Title="Discontinued" Width="100px" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(SampleData.FirstReleaseDate)" Title="Release Date" Width="300px" />
    </GridColumns>
</TelerikGrid>

@code {
    // cascade through classes on the grid and/or on the built-in button to click it with JS
    // so that it can invoke the built-in export operations
    string GridClass { get; set; } = "MyGrid";
    string ExportBtnClass { get; set; } = "myExcelExportButton";
    async Task MyExternalExportTrigger()
    {
        var selector = $".{GridClass} .k-header .{ExportBtnClass}";
        await _js.InvokeVoidAsync("clickButton", selector);
    }



    List<SampleData> GridData { get; set; }
    bool ExportAllPages { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        GridData = Enumerable.Range(1, 100).Select(x => new SampleData
        {
            ProductId = x,
            ProductName = $"Product {x}",
            UnitsInStock = x * 2,
            Price = 3.14159m * x,
            Discontinued = x % 4 == 0,
            FirstReleaseDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-x)
        }).ToList();
    }

    public class SampleData
    {
        public int ProductId { get; set; }
        public string ProductName { get; set; }
        public int UnitsInStock { get; set; }
        public decimal Price { get; set; }
        public bool Discontinued { get; set; }
        public DateTime FirstReleaseDate { get; set; }
    }
}

Please add an attribute to Blazor GridColumn which allows to easily format data with the default .NET standard formats

e.g. <GridColumn Field="@(nameof(Item.Price))" Title="Price" Format="0#.##" />

It's a little bit annoying always having to define a template for this purpose.

Hello,

Do you have any sample for custom group Header template.

e..g. To  calculate the value of the column based on the other fields.

---

ADMIN EDIT

---

Once aggregates for all fields are exposed, we will need to provide an option to align them with the corresponding columns. This can be achieved through a GroupHeaderColumnTemplate which is targeted in a separate request.

I want to be able to enter numbers and the grid to filter numeric fields too according to those numbers. Enums would be nice too.

**Admin Edit**

The feature request will be researched and evaluated. It contradicts to our datasource filtering logic that relies on the type of the fields. Thus, it is highly possible that we will handle the task through a knowledge base example.
