Can you add a method to go to a specific page in the Grid?

It is easy in Kendo UI for jQuery, https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/data/datasource/methods/page

 dataSource.page(2);

The equivalent way of doing it in Kendo UI for Angular is to bind skip to a Grid, and calculate the skip by ourselves, but it doesn't feel as natural as doing datasource.page(2)

Hi there

I am wondering if there is a way to customize the column labels / titles used in the column-chooser component.

I'm using the grid component with columns and column-groups (see example below) and would like to reflect the title of the group in the column-chooser's list as well.

Right now the chooser shows two checkboxes per group "Amount", "Weight" "Amount", "Weight" but does not reflect the group title...

Users might not be sure which "Amount" or which "Weight" is affected by which checkbox (in fact in my real world application there may be even more than 2 Productgroups in a row).

@Component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    template: `
      <kendo-grid [data]="data">
         <ng-template kendoGridToolbarTemplate>
            <kendo-grid-column-chooser></kendo-grid-column-chooser>
         </ng-template>
         <kendo-grid-column field="Field1"></kendo-grid-column>
         <kendo-grid-column field="Field2" [hidden]="true"></kendo-grid-column>
         <kendo-grid-column-group title="Productgroup A">
           <kendo-grid-column title="Amount" field="groupA.amount"> </kendo-grid-column>
           <kendo-grid-column title="Weight" field="groupA.weight"> </kendo-grid-column>
         </kendo-grid-column-group>
         <kendo-grid-column-group title="Productgroup B">
           <kendo-grid-column title="Amount" field="groupB.amount"> </kendo-grid-column>
           <kendo-grid-column title="Weight" field="groupB.weight"> </kendo-grid-column>
         </kendo-grid-column-group>
      </kendo-grid>
    `
})
export class AppComponent {
  public data: any[] = [{ Field1: 'Foo', Field2: 'Bar', groupA: { amount: 11, weight: 111, annotation: "none"}, groupB: { amount: 22, weight: 222, annotation: "yes"}}];
}

Thanks for any help!

Kendo Grids for Angular has the ability to remove operators by using `[showOperators]="false"`, however this keeps the button visible.

We would like the option to also hide/remove the clear button.

Hi Team

It would be very helpful if Grid allow to prevent focus on cell out-of-box, at the moment, we have to handle focusin event then set focus to other cell, however when using navigation keys or shortcut key, we need to handle differently depend on which cell should be focus next.  

Reproduction

- Use a grid with data coming from a service (or another source)

- Click the delete button (built in with the grid

It removes the element from the grid as soon as I click the button but I want to remove it only after confirming the deletion.

Hi Team,

Requesting a feature to grid rows merge like the below example,

Thanks!

I would like to request additional keyboard navigation functionality with the grid.  We are using the grid as a sort of spreadsheet, for teachers to enter grades.  Teachers want to move down the column in the grid by pressing the enter key after typing each grade, in order to move their focus to the field below.  After pressing enter, the field below should be focused and editable.  When pressing enter at the bottom of the column, focus should be brought to the top of the next column.  Using shift+enter would move the focus up a row, and if at the top of a column, would bring focus to the bottom of the column to the left.

This behavior differs from the current grid keyboard navigation, I believe, in that we need the navigation to be present and the fields within each cell to be editable at the same time.  The teacher will not want to switch between navigating and editing, they want to quickly enter their scores going down the column, like a spreadsheet.

We have tried to implement this ourselves and have been mostly successful, but the area where we are having issues beyond our control is when using virtual scrolling.  As the grid swaps out its rows for the next set of data, the user's focus is moved to a different cell where we do not wish to have the focus at that point.  We have attempted to immediately move the focus back to the cell it should be in, but the user can type faster than we are able to regain control of the focus and we wind up with grades in cells where they shouldn't be.  We have tried using the pageChange event, but that occurs after the page has already changed and the focus has already been moved somewhere we don't want it.  If you have any suggestions for dealing with this in the meantime that would be most helpful.

Thank you!

In my kendo-grid I want to have a kendoGridFooterTemplate span across multiple columns the same way the kendo-grid-column-group allows you to do with the header. 

I want that "Total : " footer to start at that cell, but then continue on as needed into the other two cells to the right.

Setting grid.columns[i].hidden may work to some extend, but isn't emitting columnVisibilityChange and further activities on a column set visible are not working but resulting in error, e.g. calling reorderColumn() results in:

TypeError: Cannot set property 'orderIndex' of undefined
    at GridComponent.push../node_modules/@progress/kendo-angular-grid/dist/fesm5/index.js.GridComponent.updateColumnIndices (https://localhost:4201/vendor.js:196833:43)

The grid internal method updateColumnIndices() throws an error, because it doesn't get the newly visible column from expandColumnsWithSpan() and expandedColumns.indexOf(source) is -1. 

Thus it's required to add methods like showColumn/hideColumn or setColumnVisibilty.

Hi, 

I believe it would be a great addition and simplification, if there were getOptions/setOptions methods at GridComponent to imperatively access/restore grid state (visibility, column order, sort order, filter, ...). These are also available at Kendo UI for jQuery. 
I know, all the settings may be set using *ngFor and *ngIf directives, but that approach requires a lot of attribute remapping (from component instance to template) which doesn't feel right, especially when using column templates and and a lot of grid features. 

Thank you, 
Robert

Our application uses grouped grids but doesn’t use the built-in collapse feature. We instead hide the collapse arrow to disable the option. This leaves an empty space to the left of the parent grid label (where the collapse arrow would normally sit) and an empty column on the left side of all child grids. We’re looking for a more “official” and supported way of achieving the effect that removing ‘[group]=“groups”’ currently achieves. We’d like to minimize the amount of nonstandard code we’re introducing to our Kendo implementation as well as minimize unintended consequences of altering the grid code.

Hey Kendo Team,

you already have a solution in jQuery for my problem (https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/knowledge-base/grid-group-remove-footer-header-one-record).

Unfortunately this solution did not work in Angular.

Desirable solution would be a flag in GroupHeaderTemplate which removes header if group size is one.

Another solution could be; allow a class field in GroupHeaderTemplate, so that we can set display to none if group size is one.

Best regards,

Matthias

Basically whats described in this issue right here: https://github.com/telerik/kendo-angular/issues/2093

It would be nice if column group visibility could be toggleable via the column chooser.

If not, a more elegant workaround would be to indicate in the column chooser that certain columns are part of column groups. The way it is now is too clunky and unclear.

For example, I have the following column groups:

But the above columns show up in the column chooser like so:

It would be nice if the column group name was at least prepended to child columns in the column chooser to at least indicate that it's part of a group. For example, it would show as follows instead:

[x] Latest read - Time

[x] Latest read - Value

[x] Latest write - Time

[x] Latest write - Value

Thanks so much.

Please add a template about custom hierarchy cell template.

We have to add few icons in it and also before it and we would like to use angular native way.

Hello,

As I explained in this post, I would like to set max-width on certain columns of a grid to force them to not becoming bigger than a certain size if there is a remaining width in the parent container. However, I do need to distribute the remaining width across other columns if they don't have max-width.

For example in this project https://stackblitz.com/edit/max-width-request?embed=1&file=app/app.component.ts, I want the first column which shows the ID of products would never be bigger than 15. I'm advised to leave one of the columns without setting width, so that column will occupy the remaining width and as a result the width of columns with width will be respected as max-width. However, that is not good because in big screens you will end up with a very big column while other columns are still suffering from lack of space.

Thanks,

Mojtaba

Hello,

As discussed with Martin in support ticket 1429284, some of the column values in my grid might be the same, but with different letter cases. For example, column "First Name" could have the values "Elias", "elias", and "ELIAS".

When grouping, Kendo grid grouping treats those values as 3 separate groups because its case sensitive. Our users expect those values to be grouped as 1 to avoid confusion. 

The workaround provided might affect other dependent features and make the code a bit messy.

I would appreciate it if you could add in a future version, a built in option to ignore case when grouping without changing the original displayed values.

Regards,
Elias

Hi, 

There is no event to cater mouse-over events for rows in k-grid. This is important if we need to perform something row specific.

Also, this is not achievable through javascript events. So it should be a feature in Kendo.

Thanks!
