"The GridColumnBuild does not have an implementation for the Locked functionality against the dynamic type. The class that gets serialized and sent to the client-side would not have a property for the locked column, therefore, there would be no locked columns."

Can you please examine this functionality?

Best,

My users ask for this in almost every application.  When a grid is grouped, the users want to see the groups in an order that indicates some ranking by an aggregate value. For example, If SALES-DETAIL table is grouped by SALESPERSON, the default alphabetic order of the groups might be AMELIA, BARBARA, CARLOS, DAVID, HARRY, THOMAS, ZELDA. But users want to see the groupings in descending order by the salesperson's TotalSales, which might be HARRY, ZELDA, AMELIA, THOMAS...etc. So we need a way to specify a custom-group-sortorder. And to be perfectly clear, that is the sequence of groups with respect to each other, not the order of detail data inside the group. The detail records might be sorted chronologically by SalesDate regardless of the order of the group relative to each other. In SQL the equivalent would be  ... GROUP BY SALESPERSON ORDER BY SUM(TotalSales) DESC(ending). This feature would work hand-in-glove with another requested feature, showing the group footer when the group is collapsed.

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.

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

When the grid is configured for InCell editing and frozen columns, it is expected the first editable cell to be opened for editing when a new record is added. 

However, when there is not an editable cell in the locked columns, it would not search in the main content. Here is an example:

https://dojo.telerik.com/ucEraQOW

A temporary workaround would be to override the editModel function and check in the second table as well:

https://dojo.telerik.com/aJEsAnud

Allow customisation of the bool filter in grids.  I.E. implement the UI property that works for other non-checked columns.  The current filter is too wide, does not allow fontawesome characters, etc.

For performance reasons, we would like to only show the group headers collapsed when first grouping, and only add its child rows when expanded. This is done for hierarchical grids and minimizes unnecessarily large DOMs for data the user will never look at. 

Hi, 

Here is the dojo to reproduce. In this dojo I've created imitation of data, that coming from server in our case. The main idea is to have a grid with lazy loading - it has 10 groups (page 1) and after scrolling down it loads 10 more groups (page 2) and etc.

Issue 1. 

After scrolling down, data from the last group is updated with some data, that is not belongs to it. Please see 'Issue1.png' attached.

Issue 2.

Groups from the first page are duplicated after scrolling down. For example, there is a group named 'C3'. After scrolling down, it is duplicated once again. Please see 'Issue2.png' attached. New groups are placed after these duplications. By the way, as groups from the 1st page are duplicated, there is more than 20 groups is shown, but the counted at the bottom of the grid says that '20 of 137' elements are show.

So it would be great, if you could fix that. Or even provide temporary fix for us.

Thank you!

Hi

I am binding columns dynamcially in jquery without template column header spacing working file becuase i have added "[ ]" this symbol.

but when try to add anchor tag link with onclick method then i am getting issue.

i have attached file java script error please provide some solutions.

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!

Jon

The new event should fire as soon as the grid is fully rendered und ready to take user input or focus.

We need this for automated UI Testing. SetTimeout does not work reliable.

Cannot read property 'groupHeaderColumnTemplate' of undefined.

I have my grid, with 4 columns:

When i grouping for Date field, the browser run this error:

The issue is reproducible when the grid consists only from Multi-header columns, the setDataSource() method has been used and one of the columns is initially hidden.

After setting the new data source, the last header gets hidden. The "display: none;" style has been applied to the "th" HTML element.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a grid with multi-header columns only.

2. Hide one column initially.

3. Set a new data source via the setDataSource() method.

4. The last column gets hidden.

Sample Dojo:

https://dojo.telerik.com/AcipENOt

Kendo UI version: 2019.1.220

We need a way to disable the _step function (kendo.web.js) from being run whenever keying up or down in a nullable NumericTextBox grid column. Without this, moving between cells is setting the value of the cell being stepped out of to zero despite no text/numerical input. Our workaround was to override the Kendo JS to skip the majority of the _step logic by checking for whether spinners were disabled:

if(that.options.spinners === false) {
	return;
}

It seems that you would want to conditionally have clearSelection() behave differently with persistSelection enabled, as it does not clear the selection of items on other pages. At the very least offer us a clearAllSelections() method if modifying the behavior of the other method is not desirable.

We are working on enterprise product, which uses Progress Telerik jQuery KendoUI components extensively purchased by our Company. In which Kendo grid is used in many modules of our product.

Now a days we are working on Accessibility (i.e. keyboard and screen reader) as part of out-of-box feature of our product.

The grid has been made accessible so that it can be navigated using the keyboard arrow keys, once it receives focus via Tab Key in order of tab index or Alt + W short cut key. In turn, this has spawned up one issue in terms of keyboard operatibility. You can now tab into the grid, use arrow keys to navigate to the cell containing action buttons and then again tab to the button that you want to activate.

This is causing confusion in terms of use of the tab key. Ideally, the tab should take focus from one widget to another. That is the tab key should have taken focus into the grid and pressing it again should have navigated away from the grid. But because of the action buttons displayed within the grid for each record, that tab also navigates controls within the grid widget. This causes numerous press of the tab key just to traverse past the grid widget.

Now due to this, user needing to press the tab key multiple times is an accessibility issue.

Also while referring Grid control demo on https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/editing-inline , we found the same type of behavior when traversing through “Edit” and “Delete” buttons. One of the code snippet developed by us using dojo.telerik.com can be referred on https://dojo.telerik.com/@chiragvidani/ulOzaniX/2

It would be great if this issue is addressed with a good accessible way.

Please find below reply received from on the accessibility forum, when we tried raising the issue to find out the remedial solution:

Just to make sure we're talking about the right type of component, a grid vs a table, a grid is like a spreadsheet where you can interact with all the cells.  I agree that a grid should be a single tab stop so that you can easily navigate to the elements after the grid.  However, I have seen implementations that once you're in the grid and in "edit mode", you can tab amongst the cells.  This is helpful if the cell contains an element that uses the arrow keys (such as a radio or select) and you want the arrows interpreted by the element and not navigate to the next cell.  You then need to get out of "edit mode" (perhaps via the escape key) in order to tab off the grid.

A table, on the other hand, doesn't let you interact with the cell directly but that doesn't mean a cell cannot have an interactive element.  That is, you can have links or buttons or inputs in a table cell and it'd still be considered a table and not a grid.  It's kind of a fine nuance.  A grid lets you interact with the cell itself and a table might let you interact with an element that is in the cell, but not with the cell itself.

There is, of course, more to this than that but I was trying to keep it basic and simple.

So, that being said, do you really have a grid or a table?

Let's say you really have a table instead of a grid, and that one of the cells in your table has several buttons, and that pattern is repeated on every row.  You would indeed have a bunch of tab stops, making it difficult to navigate beyond the table.

One possibility is if all the button actions are grouped together, they could be considered a toolbar.  A toolbar is one tab stop and you arrow between the buttons, but you'd still have the problem of having a toolbar on every row.  A toolbar would reduce the number of tab stops compared to having all separate buttons but you'd still have X number of tab stops for X rows.  One for each toolbar.

Maybe a grid in that case would be better.  Tab to the grid, tab again to whatever element follows the grid.  Tab back to the grid and use the arrow keys to navigate to the desired row.  Maybe the row goes into "edit mode" automatically when it receives focus with the arrow and then all the interactive elements in the row get a tabindex of 0.

That might be a bit non-standard and there probably isn't a good "role" to explain the behavior.  A bit of usability testing might be required.

Thanks,

Currently we use batch editing in the Grid control. The idea of batch editing is all changes are retained client side until the user presses the save button. 

When editing a cell a red dirty indicator is placed on the cell. This gives the user an indication that there are unsaved changes. however, when deleting a row, the row just goes away. There is no indication the user must still save. 

I would like to see rather than the record immediately removed a class applied to the row so we can apply some style like a strikethrough or red background color to indicate a pending delete. Also, we would be able to switch the "delete" button to an "undo" button.

Hello guys,

I am stuck with this problem for some time now. Everything works well with mouse, I can drag and drop column into grouping header normally. But on touchscreens I can't drag it. I am interested if anyone has had this issue?
