Other spreadsheet applications (Excel and Google Sheets, to name two) offer the ability to insert individual cells into a sheet without inserting a whole row/column. Most importantly, this feature updates cell references in formulas, which is not something that can be done with copy and paste.

For example, in the following spreadsheet (screenshot from Excel), I've right-clicked cell A2 and chosen "Insert" on the context menu. There is also a button on the ribbon that opens the same "Insert" dialog.

I want to shift the cells down, so I click OK in the dialog. Note that the formulas update accordingly: the sum range expands to A1:A5, while the individual cell references remap.

Can this feature please be added to Kendo spreadsheet? Otherwise, our clients will have to continue manually re-writing formulas after they copy/cut and paste to achieve a similiar-looking (but functionally different) result.

Thanks!

 

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to include commas for the sheets.rows.cells.validation.from values.

For example:

• 1st
• 2nd
• Combine 1st, and 2nd

Instead of:

• 1st
• 2nd
• Combine 1st
• and 2nd

Additionally, it would be nice to be able to use another delimiter instead of commas. 

Thank you!

  

Spreadsheet import currently handles (keeps) rich text formatting of a cell if the entire cell is formatted, such as a colored row or all bold text in cell. However, if the content of the cell is a mix of plain text and formatted text, the formatting gets dropped on import. If it is possible, it would be nice to keep rich text under this condition.

Bug report

When a string, used as old_text for SUBSTITUTE(text, old_text, new_text, [instance_num]) function, is repeated more than once and the new_text is an empty string, one occurrence of the old_text remains not substituted.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Go to Spreadsheet Basic usage demo
2. Add a new sheet
3. Type ab113abababab11ab in A1
4. Enter the following formula in B1 =SUBSTITUTE(A1, "ab", "")

NOTE: substituting ab with another string, e.g. cd, replaces all instances of ab as expected.

Current behavior

113ab11 - when ab is repeated more than once in a row, one of its instances remains unchanged to an empty string

Expected/desired behavior

11311

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2019.2.514
• Browser: all

Show/Hide Column & Row Header

1. Save Excel workbook to folder on server (the Excel file can be re-purposed in many ways)
2. Better ways to send sheet data back to controller ... more JSON serialization options, csv, etc.

Provide support for images client-side import/export through Telerik Document Processing.

Bug report

After pasting values from the Kendo UI Spreadsheet to Excel, making a change in Excel, and pasting the value back to a Kendo UI Spreadsheet, it pastes old information.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Kendo UI Spreadsheet Overview
2. Copy Data C7:D8 from Kendo Spreadsheet
3. Paste data to MS Excel (used: Microsoft 365 MSO version 2309)
4. Edit values in MS Excel.
5. Copy from MS Excel
6. Paste new values to a Kendo UI Spreadsheet.

Expected/desired behavior

The new values are not pasted back to the Kendo UI Spreadsheet.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2023.3.1114
• jQuery version: All Supported Versions
• Browser: all

Right now, a List based validation is strict on case, it'd be nice to have a toggle for when it is appropriate.

Hi Support Team,

When select multiple cells continuously and right click, it will have more options. But when select multiple cells without continuously and right click, there is only 1 option

Would like to have a feature to have more options when select multiple cells without continuously and right click and also to able to detect which cells are selected if multiple cells are selected without continuously.

Select multiple cells continuously:                                   Select multiple cells without continuously:

      

In the scpreadsheet you can use controls like  dropdowns & datepicker , but should be helpful if user could to customize the design and behavior. 

For example, the dropdown and any other control needs be opened since an icon at right that is displayed over the next column, As user i would like to choose how i want to be displayed the control: Open clicking on it, set expand direction, styles, etc.

While you can set the enabled state of the sheet, you can still perform the selection, columns/rows merge and resizes.

In Excel I can create a merged cell. For this example, I will merge A1:B1 and name the range MyCell.  Next I name the single cell D5, and call it MyAnswer.  I can enter the following formula into MyAnswer, =MyCell and Excel will return the result.

Using Telerik if I create the same layout I get a #Value or #Spill error because Telerik requires MyAnswer to be the same merge configuration as MyCell which creates a significant disadvantage in usability.

Can you please advise when this issue will be fixed in Telerik.

I have attached a screen recording of this not working in your Dojo named "Telerik merge cell reference not working when not same col.mov".

Thank you so much.

Make Spreadsheet xlsx import failure more user friendly. Currently, when xlsx import fails, the UI thread is blocked and the user needs to reload the page in the browser. The import operation instead could process the file in the background and could return meaningful message without blocking the UI.

Can the Spreadsheet widget be updated to initialize a sheet that is bound to a datasource when the datasource is an empty object?  

Generally, when a sheet is bound to a datasource, it is for the purpose of editing data, creating new rows and updating/deleting existing rows.  If a datasource comes back empty, the sheet isn't initialized.  So there are no column headers, which can be confusing to users when they don't know what data to enter in which columns.  The other thing is that the sheet itself is not fully initialize so that even if we assign column headers programmatically, when users start entering data, the UI becomes unresponsive and generates a javascript error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'indexOf' of undefined

Dear Concerned,

1. Launch https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/spreadsheet/index

2. Open attached MultipleSheetsRowHeightIssue.xlsx

3. Please notice there are 3 sheets with default row height 20, 30, 40 respectively (you can check in MS Excel)

4. Now Click export, and open the exported file again 

5. Now we have an issue here - all sheets set to default row height to 40. (It seems that it is setting the last sheet's default row height to all sheets)

Its severe issue, please share a fix or at least provide some workaround.

 

Hi,

When editing a workbook with the Spreadsheet component, if a user switches from a worksheet to another, then moves the scrollbars, when switching back, although the active cell is adequately recovered, the scrollbars are not (the user experience is that they do not react to worksheet switching).

Is this behavior planned to be changed? Is there a workaround?

We have clients with large spreadsheets that print out across multiple pages, which can mean losing track of which column refers to what on new pages after a page break, so they want to be able to assign a row of column headers to be printed on new pages above each column to keep track
