Here is a TelerikForm with a FormItem (1) for a boolean field. Another FormItem (2) should render, depending on the boolean field (1). This does not work with a TelerikForm, but works with a standard EditForm.
The workaround for a TelerikForm is to use a FormItem Template with a TelerikCheckBox. This is demonstrated below as well.
<EditForm Model="@_data">
<label>Condition 1 (InputCheckbox):</label>
<InputCheckbox @bind-Value="@_data.Value1" />
<br />
@if (_data.Value1)
{
<label>Result 2</label>
<InputCheckbox DisplayName="Result 2:" @bind-Value="@_data.Value2"></InputCheckbox>
}
</EditForm>
<h1>TelerikForm</h1>
<TelerikForm Model="@_data">
<FormItems>
<FormItem LabelText="Condition 1 (FormItem):" Field="@nameof(_data.Value1)"></FormItem>
<FormItem>
<Template>
<label for="x">Condition 1 (TelerikCheckBox):</label>
<br />
<TelerikCheckBox Id="x" @bind-Value="_data.Value1" />
</Template>
</FormItem>
@if (_data.Value1)
{
<FormItem LabelText="Result 2:" Field="@nameof(_data.Value2)"></FormItem>
}
</FormItems>
</TelerikForm>
@code {
private ExampleDto _data { get; set; } = new ExampleDto();
public class ExampleDto
{
public string TextValue { get; set; }
public bool Value1 { get; set; }
public bool Value2 { get; set; }
}
}
Telerik TextBox for string is nice but what about something like [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)] for TextArea?
Forms should really come with Text Area. It seems like a good one to do next.

ADMIN EDIT
An idea is that perhaps other data type annotations could be used - perhaps Date, DateTime, TIme can switch different date/time pickers, Html can generate the HTML editor, Password can set a textbox with the Password type

I would like to change the location of the Form Buttons. Instead of having them at the bottom of the form, I would like them to be at the top of the form.
Please allow customizing of the Form Buttons position.

If you want to position the Form Buttons on top of the Form you can try the following approach - use FormItemTemplate and place the desired buttons in it. For example:
@using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
<TelerikForm EditContext="@theEditContext" OnValidSubmit="@OnValidSubmitHandler" Width="200px">
<FormItems>
<FormItem>
<Template>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="@ButtonType.Submit" Primary="true">Submit</TelerikButton>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="@ButtonType.Button" OnClick="@ClearButton">Clear</TelerikButton>
</Template>
</FormItem>
<FormItem Field="FirstName"></FormItem>
<FormItem Field="LastName"></FormItem>
<FormItem Field="DOB"></FormItem>
</FormItems>
<FormButtons>
</FormButtons>
</TelerikForm>
@code {
private void ClearButton()
{
person = new Person();
CreatedEditContext(person);
}
void CreatedEditContext(Person model)
{
theEditContext = new EditContext(model);
theEditContext.AddDataAnnotationsValidation();
}
Person person { get; set; } = new Person();
EditContext theEditContext { get; set; }
protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
person = new Person();
CreatedEditContext(person);
}
async Task OnValidSubmitHandler()
{
Console.WriteLine($"SAVING {person.FirstName} {person.LastName} who was born on {person.DOB}");
}
public class Person
{
[Required]
public string FirstName { get; set; }
[Required]
public string LastName { get; set; }
public DateTime DOB { get; set; }
}
}
The Validation does not trigger when I load my model from an async method.

A workaround for the time being:
@inject HttpClient http
@using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
<TelerikForm @ref="@EditForm"
Model="@TheCatFactTelerik"
ValidationMessageType="@FormValidationMessageType.None">
<FormValidation>
<ValidationSummary />
</FormValidation>
<FormItems>
<FormItem Field="fact">
</FormItem>
</FormItems>
<FormButtons>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="ButtonType.Submit" Primary="true">Apply</TelerikButton>
</FormButtons>
</TelerikForm>
@code {
public TelerikForm EditForm { get; set; }
public CatFact TheCatFactTelerik = new CatFact();
public EditContext editContext { get; set; }
protected async override Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
TheCatFactTelerik = await http.GetFromJsonAsync<CatFact>("https://catfact.ninja/fact");
}
protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender)
{
EditForm.EditContext.AddDataAnnotationsValidation();
}
public class CatFact
{
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Required Error Text")]
[MinLength(10, ErrorMessage = "Min Length 10")]
public string fact { get; set; }
public int length { get; set; }
}
}</AdminEdit>
Currently, the Form component does not provide indexer support, or binding to an item of collection. For reference of the feature, you could observe the following documentation of the WPF suite:
https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radpropertygrid/features/indexer-support
As per the current component configuration, when the EditContext changes, the Form descendants are not disposed and recreated. Thus when the change occurs, you need to explicitly add any validation (be that DataAnnotationsValidation or custom one).
This request serves for indicating research on how the Form behavior could be improved upon changing the EditContext.
I need a way to use TelerikForms and make it responsive for various display sizes.
Here is what I'm trying to accomplish: I have a TelerikForm with 5 columns. it looks nice horizontally on the screen, but I need it to respond to screen size and start stacking vertically when the screen is shrunk.
I have a simple TelerikForm using required validation but for some reason when I set the model via an async call to the server the validation doesn't fire. I am using the same form when I add a new item and the validation is working fine.
