I do not understand the rational behind this behaviour other than it is easier to implement than what I would consider normal multi-select behaviour.

Multi-selection should be enabled by holding down the ctrl or shift key to select non contiguous or contiguous rows like every other application on earth.

Using the mouse in this manner also prohibits the ability to drag rows which has also been raised on this forum.

Lastly, almost every js based grid I've ever seen, KendoUI included cannot handle multi-select AND virtual paging. Once selected rows go out of scope, they will not be re-selected when back in scope.

Be the first to market on this feature and trump your competition. It is a hard feature to implement, but one that is surely worth the bragging rights.

Please add a simple way to add column calculations to the grid. From simple addition and multiplication to complex calculations across grid columns. Key features would include:

Calculations fire on key up key down events for selected cells
Formula builder like excel
Calculated fields automatically save to db on save
Calculated fields included in aggregates in footer

Thanks!

When using Grid with virtual scrollbar there is no possibilty to go to sepecific row programaticly. Especially for row that are not yet loaded.

I have managed to move the scrolbar using 

grid.virtualScrollable.verticalScrollbar.scrollTop(scrollRow[0].offsetTop + pageOffset * pageIndex);

however the calcualtion of the location of the row is impossible when rows have dynamic height.

Add Shift+Space support in Grid to select contiguous rows using keyboard navigation. Currently, if the user wants to select 50 contiguous rows using the keyboard, he/she needs to hit Ctrl+Space 50 times.

Hi Guys,

It would be nice to have GridColumnAttachment field for Kendo ui grid like in Telerik RadControl

The groupHeaderTemplate property for a column can only be set if initializing a grid and defining columns via javascript.

The following post describes the issue and the area that requires modification (Grid._columns):

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16348291/how-do-i-set-the-groupheadertemplate-for-kendo-grid-column-using-data-attributes

Right now if you want to only show the editor for a column (eg bool field) you have to override the client template among other things and if you want to do it for many fields it can take a lot of code to accomplish.  It would be nice if there were a way to just specify for kendo to only show the editor for the field.

Add Min Width Property to Grid Column so that a user can't manually shrink a column beyond a certain width.

In a grid with 'inline' edit that has rows that are wider the the viewport when entering edit mode the grid now positions on the first editable cell in the grid. This should be the cell that was selected before going into edit mode. In other words the grid should persist its scrolling position.

The grid popup editor is great but when you have a large number of fields to edit the height of the popup window becomes impractical.

What would work much better would be to split the single column of fields into two or more columns making the window wider but shorter and ultimately more manageable.

Maybe the popup could have a "columns" configuration option to allow for this type of functionality.

Personally, I much prefer image buttons over text buttons in the grid just to keep bulk down especially when you have a wide grid or a number of custom command buttons with long text.

To do this at present requires some fancy css styling in the grid databound event.

I would like to see more configuration options for grid commands to allow for ....

- Built-in commands (Edit, Delete, etc) and custom commands to be image only
- Built-in commands and custom commands to have a "tooltip" option

Please fix the keyboard shortcuts, so they exclude shortcut combination (Ctrl+Return). For example inside the Kendo Grid there is a Shortcut with Return Key (which start the edit mode), but whenever the user do Ctrl+Return the same operation will be triggered.In my point of view the Shortcut should only happen when the user only click the Return Key, any other Keycombination should be a totally different Shortcut.

To me these are all glaring bugs, especially for those who like to use their keyboard instead of their mouse to fill out forms.

1. Mouse scrolling drop downs/comboboxes scrolls the page when it hits the top/bottom.
2. Enter key opens/closes subgrid instead of putting cell into/out of edit mode.
3. Backspace in drop downs causes browser to go back to the previous page.
4. Comboboxes, when filtering, should always "select" the highlighted item when tab is pressed.(the little auto-complete hack/setting doesn't cut it)
5. There is no easy keyboard way to open drop downs and date pickers in the grid.
6. Tabbing to a button cell and hitting Enter does not click the button.

I have an event handler for when a drop down inside the grid changes that calls .set("MyField", myValue).  Behind the scenes, kendo sets the current cell to the first cell in the grid!  I would like the current cell to be preserved so that the grid works for keyboard navigation as well as point-and-click.

Let's say we have an grid with incell editing and navigation enabled. But also there may be some column which are readonly (non editable ).  Currently when I press the tab from an editable cell it focus on non editable cell's ,which is no needed. I'll prefer to have a navigation which is stopping only at the editable cells when I press the tab.  And also I would like to add new row when I press the tab form last editable cell in the last row.

Please provide functionality for transposing a grid out of the box. My team has many members who need this functionality. For the moment, everone is transposing the data and then binding it to the grid. Please let me know when we can get to see this functionality. Thanks!

there are ready to use methods fadeIn & fadeOut for animation In jQuery. Kendo UI Window already uses nifty close-effect, how about implementing this behavior for a grid-control. Expanding/Colapsing Detail-Gird in Hierarchy will go smoothly and comply with other controls' animation.

Enable on-the-fly changes of selectable (selection mode) in the Grid widget

In your grid demos titled "binding to remote data" filter for column ship city when i choose operator does not contain operator and fill "Rio" value kendo grid sends empty filter GET parameter. I have observed similar bevavior in my project.

We are using the grid primarily to view paged sets of data, so in most cases we will see 10 to 25 records at one time.  Regardless of the number of records visible, the vertical scrollbar appears in a disabled state.  From my understanding, grid scrolling is either on or off, there is no Horizontal:On, Vertical:Off capability.  Our users often see multiple grids per page and the presence of these useless scrollbars creates visual clutter.  I am requesting the ability to independently set the visibility of the vertical and horizontal scrollbars on the grid in such a way that the grid's header and footer adjust to fill the empty space created where normally the scrollbar offset padding (17px) applied as an inline style in the _scrollable method of the grid javascript.  I envision this working via the kendoGrid settings object like so:

{
...
scrollable: { x: true, y:false }
...
}
