In the spreadsheet there is a way to delay repainting til bulk editing is complete.  Grid does not have such a mechanism easily accessed, however with a  grid with a large number of rows, inserting multiple rows takes a long time as each row insert triggers the change event.  It can be worked around but would be better if it was supported like spreadsheet.

Enable kendo grid to export excel with subscript/superscript and other options using Excel export API via configuration options. Right now it supports background, bold, color, fontName, fontSize, hAlign, italic, underline, and vAlign. Adding superscript/subscript would be great and it should not be difficult.

There is a Save Changes event but no corresponding Save Changes

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to change the sort order with the built in API for the mixed sortable Kendo UI Grid.  

Thank you!

Hi Team,

I would like to request the detail arrow column to be configurable for placement to the right of the Grid without applying RTL support. 

Thank you!

Hi Team,

I'd like to request an event to allow for the user to dynamically create a new filter based on the field and type instead of using just columns.filterable.ui.  

Thank you!

Hi Team, 

I would like to request an attribute property similar to this one which will allow for easier modifications for the group header columns. 

Thank you!

Hello, 

A couple feature requests...

Clear the built in search box value.

clearSearch - clears the search box

e.g.,

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
grid.clearSearch();

Customize validation text via schema model fields validation.

e.g.,

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
const dataSource = new (<any>self).kendo.data.DataSource({
                data: models,
                schema: {
                    model: {
                        id: "id",
                        fields: {
                            id: { editable: false, nullable: true },
                            modelName: { validation: { required: true, messages: {required: "Model name is a required field"} } },
                            ...

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to add text next to the pager icons.  For example, next to the previous button, have "Prev" next to it. 

Thank you!

Bug report

When the Kendo UI Grid is initialized with the bind method utilizing MVVM, the columns.template is correctly bound based on the data-role, but the columns.headerTemplate does not render like the template.

Reproduction of the problem

Please take a look at the following Progress Kendo UI Dojo.

Current behavior

The column.headerTemplate does not render the elements containing a data-role.

Expected/desired behavior

The elements which contain a data-role should become widgets upon binding.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.2.510
• jQuery version: All supported versions
• Browser: All

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to add a button into the Kendo UI Grid's pager using the built-in API.  Maybe adding a Pager Template might help.

Thank you!

Hi Team,

I'd like to request when the Kendo UI Grid contains a checkbox within the HeaderTemplate to allow it to render with the k-checkbox class like within a column.template.  Please take a look at this example which shows the current behavior.

Thank you!

Hi Team,

I would like to request the functionality to easily modify group and sub group headers with specific templates for aggregation, and have it built-in to the API.  For example, the group header could contain the total within the large group, and the sub group would contain each individual section.  Additionally, it would be nice to be able to reference each to better select each section.

Thank you!

Hi Team,

I'd like to request the functionality to change the format of a Kendo UI Grid column without needing to call the setOptions method.  This would be nice to avoid additional Read calls.

Thank you!

Allow changing Grid's AutoComplete filter operator per Grid (not for each column) through a property

Hi Team,

I would like to request adding RowVersion support to the Kendo UI Grid.  Currently, I am using a workaround of setting it during the save event, but you guys really need to fix that. 

Thanks!

Bug report
Selecting a row on a parent grid with selectable enabled unticks checkboxes from the selectable column in child grids

Reproduction of the problem

Dojo: https://dojo.telerik.com/ilOCAJeg

1. Select rows in a child Grid

2. Select a row in the parent Grid

Expected/desired behavior
The checkbox ticks shall be persisted when the user selects a row in the parent grid

Environment
**Kendo UI version: [all]
**jQuery version: [all]
**Browser: [all]

Currently it is only possible to include some custom header/footer data in an exported Excel worksheet. which is either at the beginning or the end of the rows.

It would be nice to have a feature to set the Excel-Header/Footers from Kendo UI while creating the export file. This Excel headers/footers are only visible when the Excel-Sheet gets printed e.g. you can include Report-Name, creation date or page x of y information.

Have a look at the Header/Footer feature in Excel: Headers and footers in a worksheet - Excel (microsoft.com)

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to control what is included in the ColumnMenu.  For example, a way to remove 'Group/Ungroup' and 'set column position'.  

Thank you!
