Current grid implementation sorts the whole data again and again for each page virtualization. This causes the scrolling stuck. Please think to change the grid implementation so that the scrolling is not stuck when virtualization and sorting enabled.

we are not able to show the whole data object in grid. The detail template helps in this situation. But while editing detail templates are not handy.

When editmode is detail, user should expand the row to edit. To add new record we can show expanded row. It's more of the popup edit but looks good in the UI perspective

Can we please get support for multi-column headers when using Kendo Grid 'Initialization from Table'. We need to be able to display the grand total at the top and have the row fixed. So the only way i thought to achieve this is to included it in the header.

Multiple String searching in standard filter.

Today the basic Grid filter for strings can be used to search for 1 or 2 items at best.  It would be great to be able to filter for > 2 items from 1 column at a time.  

A multicheck box filter does not work so well when you have 100k+ items, and the multicheckbox ends up with 1000s of items in it.  A string search is more appropriate for the end user.

Our current grid a user can filter for upwards of 500 strings of text in one column by treating the input as a textarea that is styled to auto-grow and is not resizable.

If Column widths are not set, The grid column and column header will be misaligned when autoscroll is enabled unless the following code is used which feels like a hack. This code snippet was given to me by a support team member.

    dataBound: function(e)
    {
      
        if($(".k-grid-content table").height() > $(".k-grid-content").height())
        {
          	$("#grid1 div.k-grid-header").css('padding-right',kendo.support.scrollbar());

            $("#grid1 div.k-grid-content").css('overflow-y', 'visible');  
        }
       	else
        {
            $("#grid1 div.k-grid-header").css('padding-right', '0');

            $("#grid1 div.k-grid-content").css('overflow-y', 'hidden');        
        }
    }

The data-cascade-from-field option requires a DOM id to function. Due to the nature of in-cell editing, the DropDownList appears only when the field is clicked.

A potential fix would be to allow us to configure cascade through the model rather than the UI.

The Grid should optionally select an entire row instead of individual cells within a row.

Use Case:
In my app, the cells are all read-only. Below just about every grid in the app is a details view (showing the selected grid row) and I want them to have up/down keyboard navigation on every grid within the app. This should be a simple configuration setting but there is currently no easy way to get this behavior.

It would be useful to add resize to content support for a grid column.
 
Also, resizing has the following issues:
1) The last column is difficult to resize as the right resize cursor is not visible after you reduce its size the first time
2) If you reduce the size of the last column, the background of the grid area is displayed. This is not ideal, it would be better if the row style (e.g. alternating) fills the empty space (add an empty column?)

Thanks!

When using Frozen columns in the grid, the frozen column is not usable for vertical scrolling when used in a mobile application. 

This means that it is not possible to swipe up and Down on the frozen column to scroll the grid vertically. This again makes the user experience very odd (actually it feels like a bug), because it is not natural to have to use the other, none froze columns, to be able to scroll vertically.

Thanks!

Feature Request: Provide Conditional Filtering as in Silverlight telerik Rad Grid along with checkboxes

Iam in the process of  migrating a project from silverlight containing telerik RAD Grid to Kendo UI containing the same Grid.

Unfortunately, i see that the default filtering option provided in kendo Grid is different than in silverlight, where the default conditonal filtering is missing in the HTML based solution. I could see only the checkbox selections 

It would be a great to have feature with the telerik products being exhibiting the same functionality

Excel-like filter always show all available options.
When one filter was already applied  - could we limit number of options to see only options that are left after previous filtration?

We should be able to filter only by already filtered rows.

As alternative - could we have some event on Excel-like filter to populate options for it every time it expands?

Currently, when the Grid widget is empty, as it is initially, the progress indicator is hidden because the its element, with class .k-grid-content, has zero height.  Just move the indicator to .k-grid-content.filter(":parent") or the equivalent so that everyone won't have to kludge it with a min-height class override for .k-grid-content.

Kendo UI Grid - In batch update mode, currently, during save operation three separate events are fired for created, updated and deleted records. This really creates a problem when all the changes needs to be transactions. There needs to be an option, in which only one event is fired for all the changes.

Currently, kendo-styled checkboxes are not rendered for the default column editors for Boolean columns.  Instead, default browser checkboxes are rendered.

In addition, kendo-styled checkboxes are not supported (and indeed do not function correctly) in custom column editors.

This issue creates a styling consistency "blemish" on pages where we've otherwise been totally consistent with a Kendo theme.

Please alter the grid behavior so that it both renders Kendo-styled checkboxes for the default Boolean column editor, and allows them for custom column editors.

Hello,
I'm working on a project that contains a Grid.
Some of the column names contain special tags (like: minus, space, dot etc.)

My request is that you please add functionality that supports special tags.



By the way, there is already a possible partial workaround this problem:
http://www.telerik.com/forums/field-name-with-space-and-other-than-numeric-creating-issues-to-load-the-grid

HOWEVER, if I add filterable property, the grid crushes and shows an error message:
Uncaught TypeError: e.charAt is not a function
Please see example:
http://dojo.telerik.com/@DUKEiLL/UbeNe

Kindly add this functionality that supports special tags also WITH FILTER.

Thanks,
Daniel.

The current method of selecting the item to filter forgeinkey column is not useful for a lot of records.
It is necessary to enable the filter template customization, or add search/autocomplete to current filter template.

Some of us use custom cell editors with multiple checkboxes (or other multiple inputs) and right now we can't use the data-bind syntax to automatically update the model when the user moves away from the cell. We also can't use the grid's "save" event because it won't fire.
Please add support for the grid column to bind to arrays, OR at least let us specify in the model or grid declaration that we want the "save" event to fire (even when you wouldn't normally do it).  This event would allow us to manually get the values of all checkboxes and update the model.

Just like how Telerik Grids are done for Silverlight Grid. I would like to have both the multi check box filter and the regular filter w/ 'Contains/Starts with/ Ends with' message on the same filter 'popup'.

Is this possible with the current Kendo UI?

showColumn() and hideColumn() is great, but it would be nice if we could pass multiple columns to the methods (maybe as an array).

It's extremely slow if I create a loop and call show/hideColumns(x) multiple times.

This would ideally apply to any grid component (Kendo Grid and TreeList).

Please add out of box functionality ( MVC and Kendo ) for simple search panel like DevExpress :
