kendo.all.js:133531 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'lockable')

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo. There is no relation in the configuration between the Grid and the Gantt widgets.

Current behavior

The following error is thrown:
kendo.all.js:133531 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'lockable')

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to export a larger amount of records fast and easily with the Kendo UI Gantt.  I have tried with over 800, but it runs sluggish.  I am aware of the limitations, but would like to request a faster way to export to PDF.

Thank you!

Add a way to highlight the critical path in the Gantt Chart. This is a basic feature in project management and would be really great if you can implement,.

The change event incorrectly triggers at initialization of the Gantt - Regression with 2022.1.301
Also, the event does not trigger when selecting a task from the timeline - Regression with 2022.3.913

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this example - https://dojo.telerik.com/@martin.tabakov@progress.com/OVigiKEX/3
2. Check the Kendo Console - the change event triggers right after initialization
3. Select a task from the Gantt timeline - the change event doesn't trigger

Current behavior

Change event triggers after initialization and does not trigger after selection in timeline

Expected/desired behavior

Change event shouldn't trigger after initialization and should after selection in timeline

Incorporate page breaks into the Gantt PDF Export and include option to repeat column headers on each page.

Hi Team,

I would like to request the functionality to easily persist the state of the Kendo UI Gantt like in this Kendo UI Grid example.  Maybe include getOptions/setOptions methods for the component. 

Thank you!

Problem: We really want to fit Gantt's on particular paper sizes (def. landscape A3); however, using the paperSize option doesn't really work as the output (font size, row heights, etc.) end up being too big and not suitable.

And for the majority of the time, paperSize set to auto creates an output (font size mostly) too small.

Rock and a hard place... 

Solution 1: When pdf.paperSize is not set to auto i.e. A3, A4, etc. Allow a percentage scaling to be set, ideally individually, on X and Y.

Solution 2: Scale fonts and scale timeline on X axis maintaining taskList width.

Ultimately, get a large plan to fit on landscape A3.

Bug report

In a Gantt that has a DropDownList as editor in the TreeList, if you click on the DropDownList's wrapper to open the widget, it will close the cell instead.

Regression introduced with 2022 R1

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this example - https://dojo.telerik.com/OlOCIkOZ/3
2. Double click to edit the Status field
3. Click on the DropDownList wrapper.

Current behavior

The cell closes.

Expected/desired behavior

The cell should remain open and the DropDownList should open

Hi,

Currently, you can change start OR end for the package without problems, and therefore you can change the duration this way, but for the project or phase, it is not possible.

Since these dates are changeable one by one manually through the table on the left or popup form, there is no logical reason why they can't be changed in the timeline as well.

Please could you consider adding this to the gantt widget.

Thank you very much.

Currently, when a child task in the Gantt is edited the start/end time of the parent task will be updated accordingly. I would like to have the possibility to disable this behavior and have the possibility to edit the child's tasks' start and end times without updating the start and end times of the parent task.

Bug report

When the duration of a task is edited in the Task Duration column in Gantt in the save event handler e.task.taskDuration returns the new duration value. With versions, before 2020 R3, the old task duration value has been returned.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo
2. Edit the value in the 'Task Duration' column and observe the result in the browser`s console.

Current behavior

With the current version, the new task duration is returned.

Expected/desired behavior

The returned e.task.taskDuration should return the previous task duration in order to be consistent with the behavior before 2020 R3

Regression since 2020.3.915

Bug report

When the end date of a task is edited in the End Time column in Gantt in the save event handler e.task.end returns the new end date value. With versions, before 2020 R3, the old end task value has been returned.
The behavior is inconsistent with editing a task through dragging or by double-clicking on a task as in such case the previous value of the end task will be returned

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo
2. Edit the date in the 'End Time' column and observe the result in the browser`s console.

Current behavior

With the current version, the new end date is returned.

Expected/desired behavior

The returned e.task.end should be consistent with the other ways of changing the date e.g. dragging or double-clicking on the task.

Bug report

With e.preventDefault in the save event of the Gantt, the TreeList becomes unresponsive when blurring a task field.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this example - https://dojo.telerik.com/aWaHadaL/17
2. Add a child task under Task 1.
3. Double click on a field of the Child task in the TreeList.
4. Blur the element.

Current behavior

The parent task collapses and becomes unresponsive

Expected/desired behavior

The parent task should not collapse and become unresponsive

Bug report

When a value in the TreeList nested in the Gantt is edited and is initially selected using the mouse, the save event is fired, but the e.values is undefined. Also, the value is changed back to the initial one.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo - https://dojo.telerik.com/@NeliKondova/arUgAguv
2. Click in the 'Task1' cell to edit and mark the entire text using the mouse
3. Type some text and press 'Enter' - The issue will not be replicated in case the edited mode is exited through clicking in another cell, but only by pressing Enter.
   screencast

Current behavior

The Edit and Save events are fired. The value of the e.values in the save events is undefined. The value of the cell is changed back to the initial one.

When the value of the cell is not marked initially with the mouse, but the user starts typing immediately after clicking in the cell the issue is not replicated. Also, only the Save event is fired and the new value is present in e.values

Note: The issue might be related to the following behavior in the TreeList: When the steps described above are followed in the TreeList - the save event is fired, but actually the edited mode is not exited - Dojo

Expected/desired behavior

The behavior should be consistent. The same events should be fired in case the edited mode is exited by pressing 'Enter' and by clicking in another cell and e.values should contain the updated value.

Hi Team,

I would like to request an easy, built-in way to format the dateTimePickers with the popup editor for the Kendo UI Gantt.  Currently, the validation will not allow for the editor to be set to a specific format without creating a dedicated editable.template.

Thank you!

Bug report

The menu that determines where to add new task incorrectly appears after creating a new task and editing an existing one.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo example - https://dojo.telerik.com/uBAHUgOy
2. Add new task.
3. Randomly edit another task so that no item is selected in the Gantt TreeList.
4. Press the Add Task button again.

Current behavior

The Add Child/Above/Below menu appears unexpectedly.

Expected/desired behavior

The menu should not appear and a new task should be added at the bottom of the list.

When summary/parent tasks in the Gantt are edited in the timeline the duration of the parent task is not always consistent with the net duration of its children.
Please review this Screen capture for the described behavior: https://www.screencast.com/t/la1PzVZaYc


This issue can be avoided, if the duration of the parent tasks can be configured to be fixed. Then the parent task's duration will only be dependant on the duration of its children.

Furthermore the timeframe of the parent task would be editable by changing the starting date.

Currently Task Template and Toolbar Template doesn't integrate with AngularJS. E.g. it is impossible to use {{ $ctrl.mymember }} or <my-angular-component></my-angular-component> for the task template in gantt.
