Error in Popup collision setting documentation

The Popup widget has a"collision" setting that is documented here: https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/popup/configuration/collision. The documentation states the following:

If two words are used, the first one applies to the horizontal dimension and the second one - to the vertical dimension.

However, the first word sets the vertical behavior and the second word sets the horizontal behavior. This can be seen in the following DOJO: https://dojo.telerik.com/ewOKOZIh. The popup uses a configuration with its collision set to "flip fit". Still, when resizing the window horizontally (making it less wide), the popup slides under the input control instead of flipping to the other side. When resizing the window vertically (making it less high), the popup flips to the upper side of the input control once the space below is becoming too small.

In my understanding, the exact opposite behavior is expected.

Hello, Michael,

It appears that my initial correction of the documentation got lost. I have made it again and it is now live.

Hi Martin!

During an internal review, we stumbled across this issue again. The documentation still is unchanged and therefore wrong.

Kind regards,Michael

Hello, Michael,

The item remains declined as there is no bug related to the collision option. The documentation will be changed tomorrow at the latest.

Hi!

After two months, the documentation still is not updated. Since this issue has been marked as declined, I am posting this quick reminder. Maybe it should be set back to (un)planned?

Hello, Michael,

After another discussion with a developer, it appears that the documentation is misleading. The first word applies for the vertical dimension and not for the horizontal once, and vice versa. We will change the documentation accordingly. 

We appreciate that you pointed that out to us,.

Hi!

I just opened the DOJO you linked and got this result:

 

As you can see, the popup did not flip. I am using the latest version of Google Chrome (98.0.4758.82).

Hello, Michael,

The flip effect does not occur as there is always enough room for the popup to be displayed. Maybe this example will be more clarifying. You can see that there is not enough space so the popup is flipped to the left. 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Martin
