Timeline - Horizontal - Calling open() method on a small screen disables the navigation arrows.

The issue can be observed in the following dojo example:

https://dojo.telerik.com/OWAyaZuJ

 

Reproduction of the problem:

1. Open the Dojo.

2. Shrink the window until only a single event is visible. Note: The open() method is called on the last item of the Timeline in the dataBound event.

3. Run the example. The last item of the timeline has been opened, however the "back" button is not active.

 

Current Behavior:

The "back" button is not active when it should be.

 

Expected Behavior: 

The button should be active, no matter the screen size.

 

Environment:

Kendo UI Version: [2021.2.616]

Browser: [all]

A possible workaround for now is to set a min-width to the Timeline element in order to make sure at least 2 items are available at any given time.

Dojo: https://dojo.telerik.com/znclXlfA

This behavior was originally reported over 4 years ago and has not received significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. Considering this and the availability of a workaround, we are unable to prioritize it over more impactful and widely requested improvements.

If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases. This will help us better assess the severity and reconsider prioritization in the future. Thank you!
