This bug is visible in your demo at http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/editing.html. When using a scrollable, editable grid in IE (9 or below): • Scroll down so that the first row of the grid is no longer visible. • Click on any row. • The grid jumps back up to the original "unscrolled" position. (In your demo, on my screen, this means that only the first 10 rows are visible.) The result is that I am unable to edit any row outside the first 10, unless I use the keyboard to navigate. This does not occur in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, or Safari - only in IE.
It seems the glitch is no longer present, following the depicted steps. I tested the demo in IE8+ and it behaves as in other browsers like Chrome and Firefox. Hence closing this issue.
IE 11 has this problem (clicking a cell to edit causes the spread to jump to the top)! I've only noticed it in latter stages of development. Not cool :-( I would love to know if there has been a fix for this posted?
Rumor has it, this will be fixed in mid March release Q1 2013.
Possible solution: I had the exact problem in a version of Kendo from summer 2012, and I fixed it by explicitely turning off the grid's navigatable property (set that to false). However, in recent versions of Kendo I haven't had to do that, so maybe they fixed it. You should try setting navigatable to false if you have this. One problem in doing this though, is that you lose tabbing from one input field to another.
Chris, I've come across the same exact issue, as recently as you have. What clouded it for me is that I'm implementing the grid in SharePoint. We need this fixed or I have to start using another grid. Not happy about all the time I've invested in this so far, only to have this come up.
I have a very similar issue if the grid is wider than the viewport. In IE9, if you need to scroll right to see a column, clicking to edit a cell in that column will make the viewport jump back to the top left corner of the grid. Has anyone at Telerik reviewed this issue?
