While the grid is initially loading data, the "No records available." message is confusing and provides no useful information.

Expected behavior - when the grid is initially loading, don't display the message as the rows/data might very well appear

To reproduce basically just go to the grid demo page (refresh if needed) and pay attention to the grid loading: https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/grid/data-binding/

Example in our project - intuitively you'd think that the grid has no records until you see the loader; in any case, the message looks out of place:

Not sure if this is a bug in Angular CLI, Karma, or Kendo. I wrote up a bug for Angular CLI for this as well: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/20449

Issue only tested on Windows 10 x64 with Chrome 89 installed.

1. Create new application:
   ng new <app-name> --strict=true --style=scss --routing=true
2. Install @progress/kendo-theme-default
npm install @progress/kendo-theme-default --save
3. Open styles.scss, add the following line:
   @import "~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/all";
4. Open karma.conf.js and change the following properties:

    autoWatch: false
    browsers: ['ChromeHeadlessCI'],
    customLaunchers: {
      ChromeHeadlessCI: {
        base: 'ChromeHeadless',
        flags: ['--no-sandbox']
      }
    },
   singleRun: true

5. Run ng test

After 2+ minutes, warning in console shows: WARN [launcher]: ChromeHeadless have not captured in 60000 ms, killing.
Then, NFO [launcher]: Trying to start ChromeHeadless again (1/2).
The second time launches without issue.

If you remove the line from styles.scss and repeat ng test, the problem is not visible.

Alternatively, check out this repo and run ng test :https://github.com/acohenOT/unit-testing

Warning indicated below:

Hi,

Can we have a word cloud component on the Kendo UI for Angular?

Thanks,

So the one feature we use a lot in our company revolves around PDF viewing and Image viewing within a component, where we display two or more at the same time.  Showing an image is easy, but we have lots of requests for it to be zoomable and after you zoom moveable to look at parts of the image.  Same goes for the PDF as we need to display it in a component next to another PDF as it is part of our Quality Check process.  And when they are side-by-side they would like to be able to move and zoom each one individually.  

Thanks,

Bill

Currently there is no component for adding text to an input from some datasource. There is an autocomplete but it does not allow mixing freetext and text coming from a datasource. And it only allows for one value.

What we need is exactly this  :  http://jeff-collins.github.io/ment.io/#/

Typing a special character in a textbox (#, or @) would bring a datalist the user can choose from.

Can this be implemented please  ?

When using any kendo components that uses dialogs from inside an ionic application, all dialogs experience stacking context issues in iOS.

The solution for this at the moment is to tell every single component to append its dialog(s) to a specified container in a bid to better control its visibility.
Right now, not every component have an 'appendTo' setting for its dialogs (ie: Editor) which makes it unusable on iOS devices.

The feature I would like to request is a way to setup the default 'appendTo' container only once from a core service to any and all dialogs.
This would help in not having to add it manually to every single components we use and maybe make it easier for you to make this feature available to more components with less work. I would make it so it applies to the dialog component and service. (or use different methods to setup each differently)

Here's how it could look like :

@Component({
  selector:    'app-mycomponent',
  templateUrl: './mycomponent.component.html'
})
export class MyComponent implements OnInit {

  public kendoContainer: ViewContainerRef; //This would point to a container.
  
  constructor( private kendoSetupService: SetupService ) {}


  ngOnInit() {
      //This would affect all components using dialogs as well.
    this.kendoSetupService.dialogs.setDefaults({
      'appendTo': this.kendoContainer
    });
  }
}

<kendo-dropdownlist [(ngModel)]="data" [popupSettings]="{ 'appendTo': kendoContainer }"></kendo-dropdownlist>

This service could be used to override many of the kendo default behaviors with minimal code footprint in the end.
It could be divided into smaller default services instead if you prefer such as DialogSetupService

I have made some predefined html and load to kendo editor for angular. Table html styles are overwritten by k-table styles and all styles are gone.Is there any possibility to adjust width , border style of table in kendo editor for angular? 

I have found table wizard for insert table for kendo editor in JQuery. Is there possibility to add this feature for angular kendo editor? 

Hi,

The example at the following URL is broken. See the attached screenshot for more details. Kindly fix asap. Thanks.

Regards,

Al

Please ensure that ALL kendo components are extended with @Output() onDataBound = new EventEmitter<any|T>();

Hi,

We are in need of a lightweight timeline component. One that shows events grouped by date and/or time with the options to expend all the event if there are more then one on the same date.

A neat feature would be an action button on an event. This would greatly enhance the experience of the timeline.

We suggest something similar to this one:  Clarity Design System - Documentation - Timeline

Our use case:

We have price lists that are published on x date and time.
To track a collection of price lists and events per price list chronologically, we need a timeline with (optional) actions per published event.

Kind regards,

Maikel

There seems to be a styling bug in the Kendo theme for Bootstrap.

Default Bootstrap buttons has this strange shadow or border issue

I very recently tried to update kendo UI to the latest version (from kendo-default-theme 4.23.0 to latest), and ran into a lot of problems, caused by the fact that I don't use the precompiled css theme styles. (removing the "node_modules/@progress/kendo-theme-default/dist/all.css" from the styles array in angular.json)

It is very opaque which styles needs to be imported for which module, and in what order they to be imported, since that seems to matter too.
Especially because there are no documentation for this at all.

For example, to get the styles for the new kendo-textbox component, the following needs to be imported in the styles.scss, AND in that specific order.

button needs to be first, and forms has to be before textbox and input

@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/button/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/forms/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/textbox/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/input/_index.scss';

which means that none of the following will compile: 

@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/forms/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/button/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/input/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/textbox/_index.scss';

@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/button/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/input/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/forms/_index.scss';
@import '~@progress/kendo-theme-default/scss/textbox/_index.scss';

As i see it there are two reasonable ways to solve this, where the first obviously results in the best user experience:

• Refactor the styles "modules" to be 1:1 with either the angular module or the specific component, so using one module/component results in a single SCSS import only
• Create documentation that very explicitly states what files to import and in what order they need to be imported when using compiled SCSS

Hi,

Currently the kendo-datepicker submits the form when you press the enter key in the calendar popup.

I don't think this is the purpose? Can this be prevented please? If the current behaviour is useful in some scenarios, maybe provide a configuration option to alter this.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Johan

https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-niog8n-eldomz?file=app%2Fapp.component.ts

How to reproduce:

1.- Make a grid with master detail

2.- In master detail make a grid

3.- Create a context menu with options for the grid with a method so that when you click an option from the context menu it does something (console.log('Hello') for example)

4.- Create a context menu with options for the subgrid with another method so that when you click an option from the context menu it does something different (console.log('Goodbye') for example)

5.- When you click on an option from the context menu of the subgrid it will not call its function (console.log ('Goodbye')), it will call the function that triggers the context menu of the grid that contains the subgrid (console.log('Hello')

Even if a function is not set in the context menu of the subgrid it calls the function from the top context menu.

I solved it using 1 function for all context menus, but it doesn't seem like the best way to me

If ComboBox is used in a form and its required, screen readers will not pick up this information since it is not passed on to the underlying input field.

The example a nice workaround, but a final solution should have this automatically implemented by the control.
