Currently Kendo dialog configuration (https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/dialog) does not provide a built in configuration option to apply class or id to the action buttons. This feature will enable the end user to style the buttons (e.g. add action button background color) in accordance with their preference.
Currently kendoWindow class publishes a "minimize" event but not the corresponding "restore" event, as far as I can tell. We need to catch the "restore" for our UI case, as follows: The default Minimize action leaves the window width unchanged, and collapses the height to 32 pixels. But we'd like to also shrink the minimized width, in order to further save space. It's easy to do that, via the minimize event, but then getting the original width back upon Restore is a problem - I can't find a straightforward way to do that, because the presence of the Restore button ("k-i-restore" class) is elusive - it isn't present at startup, nor is it found at the end of our custom "onMinimize" method. In the absence of the "restore" event, if anyone can suggest a straightforward way to accomplish the above, we would be grateful.
Currently, a modal window allows for tabbing out of the window to controls on the page below. See forum posts http://www.telerik.com/forums/tab-key-and-modal-windows http://www.telerik.com/forums/kendo-window-tab-order-and-section-508 On a web app I run into the problem where the dialog is dependent on a grid row to be present, but due to tabbing out of the not so modal window I can delete the applicable grid row removing the context on which the modal window is based. This is a bug.
Please allow for the dynamic creation of kendo windows (straight from javascript) that don't require you to have an existing element to attach the window to (or having to manually create div's in the DOM). Telerik.Window has a name property that sets the ID of the window so one can create windows easier by calling $.telerik.window.create({}) and set the name/id there. Kendo currently doesn't have that functionality. Why can't Kendo.Window do the same - either attach itself to an existing element like it currently does or if a unique name is given and no matching element with the same ID, then create a new div in the DOM and attach to it. Currently one has to manually create the DIV layers to create dynamic windows from.
I am loading content into the window asynchronously and would like to see an event that I can subscribe to that would fire when this content has finished loading.
Make the Dialog widget responsive Note: Dialog category missing, selected Window instead
Allow the toolbar to be docked to the Kendo window at the top under the title or tabstip at the top under the tab, this way the scrolling would keep the toolbar in place and would be always visible for user action
I need to call .center() on a kendo window to have it centered on the page. Position and size are already included in the configuration properties of kendo window so it would be logical to include the alignment as well.
If the close method can accept the parameter object, then we can check if execute our logic in the close event.
Right now the only position option I see is center. It would be nice to have greater options for positioning the window in the viewport. I know that most people are fine with center but there are times when my business needs to display a lot of data. The center causes the window header to be center but then the user has to scroll or move the window to the top of the screen. Even just an option like TopCenter() would be enough for me. jQueryUI uses a position that takes strings.
We should not lose functionality that the jquery dialog already supports. Keydown is an important aspect in many web apps and right now a user can click the escape button if entering in a bunch of data and it closes out the window.
