The Grid resets and disables the adaptive mode for a column menu if the column has been hidden. The component also uses the previous adaptive mode that is no longer correct if the browser window is resized.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Shrink the browser width. Hide a column, show it back and then show its column menu.
  • Start from a wide browser. Show a column menu. Shrink the browser. Show the same column menu.
  • Start from a narrow browser. Show a column menu. Expand the browser. Show the same column menu.

Test page:

<TelerikGrid Data="@GridData"
             AdaptiveMode="@AdaptiveMode.Auto"
             FilterMode="GridFilterMode.FilterMenu"
             ShowColumnMenu="true">
    <GridColumns>
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Name)" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Group)" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Price)" DisplayFormat="{0:c2}" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Quantity)" DisplayFormat="{0:n0}" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Released)" DisplayFormat="{0:d}" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Discontinued)" />
    </GridColumns>
</TelerikGrid>

@code {
    private List<Product> GridData { get; set; } = new();

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        var rnd = Random.Shared;

        for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++)
        {
            GridData.Add(new Product()
            {
                Id = i,
                Name = $"Name {i} {(char)rnd.Next(65, 91)}{(char)rnd.Next(65, 91)}",
                Group = $"Group {i % 3 + 1}",
                Price = rnd.Next(1, 100) * 1.23m,
                Quantity = rnd.Next(0, 10000),
                Released = DateTime.Today.AddDays(-rnd.Next(60, 1000)),
                Discontinued = i % 4 == 0

Customers report inconsistent in-cell editing behavior with DatePicker columns in the Grid.

  • Case 1: click a date cell to enter edit mode, then click outside the Grid — edit mode terminates.
  • Case 2: click a date cell to enter edit mode, open the DatePicker popup, then click outside the Grid — the popup closes but the cell remains stuck in edit mode until pressing Esc or clicking another cell.

Here is a REPL test page that reproduces the issue (first date column) and provides a workaround (second date column):

https://blazorrepl.telerik.com/QAErkrEh090ykIxR16

The workaround relies on Grid EditorTemplate, the DatePicker OnClose event, and programmatic Grid edit mode management. The relevant code is:

@using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations

<TelerikGrid @ref="@GridRef"
             Data="@GridData"
             EditMode="@GridEditMode.Incell"
             OnUpdate="@OnGridUpdate"
             OnCreate="@OnGridCreate">
    <GridToolBarTemplate>
        <GridCommandButton Command="Add">Add Item</GridCommandButton>
    </GridToolBarTemplate>
    <GridColumns>
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Name)" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.StartDate)" Title="BUG" DisplayFormat="{0:d}" />
        <GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.EndDate)" Title="WORKAROUND" DisplayFormat="{0:d}">
            <EditorTemplate>
                @{ var editItem = (Product)context; }
                <TelerikDatePicker Value="editItem.EndDate"

I am resetting the Grid State by calling Grid.SetState(null). This doesn't reset ColumnState<T>.Locked boolean to false and the columns remain locked.

---

ADMIN EDIT

---

A possible workaround for the time being is to additionally loop through the ColumnStates collection of the State and set the Locked property to false for each column.

Specifically, if the div mentioned in the error does not have tabindex=1, tabbing from the header causes the browser to focus that area, which is not the expected behavior. Ideally, the focus should move to the first cell, as that intermediate area is not user-interactive.

On the other hand, if tabindex=-1 is used, tools like Аxe and Lighthouse report errors. Removing the tabindex attribute altogether still results in errors, and the browser continues to focus that area.

We are actively exploring possible approaches to address this, but at the moment, there is no immediate solution we can apply without side effects.

During a recent penetration test on our Blazor application that uses Telerik Blazor UI components, a security finding was reported regarding the possibility of Excel macro injection through exported Excel files generated via the Telerik Excel Export feature. 
We would like Telerik to implement built‑in safeguards to automatically neutralize potential macro injection vectors.

The penetration test revealed that it is currently possible to insert values beginning with Excel formula metacharacters—such as =, +, -, and @—into fields that are later exported using Telerik’s Excel Export functionality.
In older versions of Microsoft Excel, these values may be interpreted and executed as formulas when users open the exported file. Even though newer Excel versions often warn users, this still presents a security concern and may violate corporate export or data‑handling policies.

See also this blogpost: https://blog.securelayer7.net/how-to-perform-csv-excel-macro-injection/

The Telerik Excel Export functionality should include an option to automatically sanitize or escape values that may pose a risk of Excel macro or formula injection.
- Automatic escaping of formula-starting characters: Prepend a single quote (') to any exported value beginning with: '=', '+', '-', '@'.
- Optional configuration flag to enable/disable this behavior, for example: <GridExcelExportSettings EscapeFormulas="true" />

While we can implement a workaround in our own application code, we believe this is a security concern that many customers may encounter, and therefore a native solution within the Telerik framework would be highly valuable.

We kindly request that Telerik consider adding a built‑in mechanism to protect against Excel macro injection in exported files. This would improve security, reduce custom development work, and strengthen the reliability of Telerik’s Blazor export functionality.

If LoadGroupsOnDemand="false", I am able to programmatically expand the groups through the state. However, this is not possible when loading group data on demand.

Please allow programmatically expanding the groups when LoadGroupsOnDemand="true". This should go together with an event (OnStateChanged?) that will fire when LOD groups are expanded or collapsed.

Draft feature request (copy/paste)

Title: Add per-column value converters (WPF-style) to Telerik Blazor Grid columns

Product: UI for Blazor → Grid
Type: Feature Request

Description:
In Telerik UI for WPF, grid column definitions can reference a converter by name (e.g., IValueConverter) to transform values for display without writing a custom cell template for each column.

In Telerik UI for Blazor Grid, templates are currently the primary way to change how values render in a column (which works, but becomes repetitive across many columns/grids).

Request:
Add a column-level conversion API that allows specifying a converter/formatter function for display (and optionally editing). Example concepts:

  • Converter="nameof(MyConverters.StatusToText)"

  • or DisplayConverter="(item) => …" / ValueFormatter="Func<TItem, object, string>"

  • optionally ConvertBack-like support for editing scenarios (or separate EditConverter)

Why this is needed:

  • Reduces repeated <Template> markup for simple formatting/transformations

  • Centralizes formatting/conversion logic in reusable code

  • Improves maintainability and consistency across grids

  • Eases migration for teams coming from Telerik WPF where converters are a common pattern

Use cases:

  • Enum/int → user-friendly text

  • Boolean → “Yes/No”, icons, badges

  • Null/empty → placeholder text

  • Code → display name (via lookup)

  • Domain-specific formatting shared across many grids

Workarounds today:

  • Column <Template> or computed properties (both valid, but not as concise/reusable for large grids)

  • Extracting RenderFragments can reduce repetition, but still requires templating infrastructure for what is logically a simple conversion step

Expected behavior:

  • Converter applies consistently anywhere the column renders (cell, export if applicable, etc.)

  • Works with sorting/filtering in a predictable way (ideally sorting/filtering still uses raw field value unless explicitly configured)

Description

A column cannot be reordered by dragging beyond the currently visible columns of the Grid. This significantly limits the column reorder functionality only to the visible viewport.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Run this example: https://blazorrepl.telerik.com/QqudFlYZ18zv7Gv547
  2. Drag a column header to the right border of the Grid.

Actual Behavior

The Grid does not scroll horizontally while the column is dragged.

Expected Behavior

The Grid scrolls horizontally while dragging the column and allows dropping it beyond the currently visible columns.

The following KB article shows a workaround for removing the Grid aggregate labels ("Sum" and "Count") from the exported Excel document: https://www.telerik.com/blazor-ui/documentation/knowledge-base/grid-remove-aggregate-labels-in-excel-footr

It would be nice to have this option as a parameter in the Grid. It would allow to toggle on/off this behavior, instead of having to rely on custom code to work around it. 

Or in the OnBeforeExport method, add extra data to GridBeforeExcelExportEventArgs that contains the aggregates so they can be changed.

 private async Task OnBeforeExcelExport(GridBeforeExcelExportEventArgs args)
 {
     await Task.CompletedTask;

     // Loop through all columns and fix the footer aggregate values
     // Replace the default "Sum: 1234.56" text with just the decimal number
     foreach (var column in args.Columns)
     {
         if (column.HasAggregate)
         {
             // Set the number format for the column so Excel treats it as a number
             column.Aggregate.Field.Value == "MyNewValue";
         }
     }
 }

The Grid's CheckBoxColumn doesn't support the TextAlign property, making it impossible to center the checkbox with just Grid markup, you have to resort to a workaround.

The TextAlign property in other columns causes style="text-align: center" to be added to the underlying table cell.  This would also work for the checkbox column.

See this test:

<table class="table">
    <tr>
        <td class="table-active" style="width: 40px; text-align: center"><input type="checkbox" /> </td>
        <td>test</td>
    </tr>
</table>

Please add the TextAlign property to the CheckboxColumn.

Column headers and column data do not match after reordering. 

See this example: https://blazorrepl.telerik.com/GKkFcwlF54CvZoVp34 

1. Reorder Group 1 and Group 2.

2. The column headers within these 2 groups are not reordered with their parent.

Reordering should work according to the rules specified in the documentation: https://www.telerik.com/blazor-ui/documentation/components/grid/columns/multi-column-headers#reordering

Hello,

 there is inconsistency/behaviour/order in events of the Grid: OnStateInit and OnRead. Which leads to scenario with no clear sollution and would be nice to fix it, and how to solve it as "hotfix".
Also i think its not new in 12.x. release, it exists longer ;)


<TelerikGrid TItem="GData" @ref="gHL" OnRead=@GReadItems OnStateInit="@OnStateGHL"> ... <GridAggregates> @if(1==2){...} </GridAggregates> @code{ protected async Task GReadItems(GridReadEventArgs args) { **hack for C) if(gHL==null)return;//state init AVOID 2x call gread PRIOR OnStateInit

...// must be called: args.AggregateResults = rr.ToDataSourceResult(args.Request).AggregateResults;

... } void OnStateGHL(GridStateEventArgs<GData> args) //or async Task doesnt matter { //default SORTing:args.GridState = new GridState<GData> { SortDescriptors = new List<Telerik.DataSource.SortDescriptor> { new Telerik.DataSource.SortDescriptor{ Member = nameof(GData.DatPorizeni), SortDirection = Telerik.DataSource.ListSortDirection.Descending }, //new Telerik.DataSource.SortDescriptor{ Member = nameof(GData.Skupina), SortDirection = Telerik.DataSource.ListSortDirection.Ascending } } }; } }


Problematic scenarios, single page, same grid:

A) when NO aggregates markup EXISTS at all
1. OnStateInit
2. OnRead  - gHL IS NULL
=OK

B) when EMPTY aggregates markup EXISTS
1. OnRead
2. OnStateInit
=FAIL
HOW to read and ui data with correct STATE?
https://www.telerik.com/blazor-ui/documentation/components/grid/state

cannot call gHL.rebind, also gHL is null
NONE initinal "sorting,filtering etc" is set, WRONG data,columns,displayed to the user


C) when SOME real aggregates markup EXISTS
1. OnRead
2. OnStateInit
3. OnRead
=partial FAIL("**hack used"), but managed by if(gHL==null)return


D) "hotfix" used with  GridAggregates="@( HasAggregates ? GridAggregatesTemplate : null )"
act as A or C, but gHL is always null, which is also bad againts C)

Expected:
ALWAYS only A) - First 1.OnStateInit THEN 2.OnRead. its the best one, without any additional hacks = UNIFY the event orders and behaviour.
OR
A) or C)
everything else is unmanagable.
 Especially when initial sorting "is must" and aggregates,columns and so on, are managed by user(non static)
B) is completly WRONG: incorrect event order of OnStateInit and OnRead
D) is againts C) (cannot detect reference of gHL)

related to:
https://feedback.telerik.com/blazor/1654029-onstateinit-does-not-fire-if-gridaggregates-exists-but-is-empty

https://www.telerik.com/forums/grid-onstateinit-event-and-onread-event-chaos

OR how to solve it generally = what is the way to LOAD gridState, and after that, LOAD Data by defined GridState?

Thanks
