Currently, filter logic is not translated in the expression preview. A `messages` property needs to be added for adjusting the logic

I find the documentation is critically lacking with regards to the available options for a feature.

Here is an example of what I mean...

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/diagram/layout#configuration-alignContent

The diagram Layout > alignContent feature "Specifies the alignment of the content."

Ok, but the documentation does not even say what the allowed values are. Instead, it just has "alignContent String (default: "start")".

Now, I guess the allowed values here are the same values allowed for an SVG text-anchor.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/text-anchor

How about adding those possible values to the api documentation, or including a link to the relevant area of the SVG specification?

Hope this makes sense.

Hi Team,

I would like to request adding a scrollbar option for the Kendo UI ContextMenu instead of the scroll buttons.

Thanks!

Hi Team,

I would like to request for the Kendo UI TreeList to have a column.resizable property similar to the Kendo UI Grid.  

Thank you!

The stack property in the Kendo Area Chart does not honor groups as separate stacking contexts.

Instead, everything gets stacked together if `stack: true` is applied.

For other chart types you can overcome this instead of just stack: true, set different stack groups, such as "A" and "B", so they do not stack together.

series: [

    {

     field: "value",

     categoryField: "year",

     name: "United States Group 1 - Series 1",

     stack: "A",  // Separate stack group

     opacity: 0.5  // Transparency for visibility

    },

    {

     field: "value1",

     categoryField: "year",

     name: "United States Group 1 - Series 2",

     stack: "A"   // Part of the same stack as the first one

    },

    {

     field: "value2",

     categoryField: "year",

     name: "United States Group 2 - Series 1",

     stack: "B"   // A different stack group

    },

    {

     field: "value3",

     categoryField: "year",

     name: "United States Group 2 - Series 2",

     stack: "B"   // Part of the second group stack

    }

]

Hi,

I'm trying to define individual business hours for the scheduler. The  scheduler only uses a single start/end time for each work day. I want to define start/end times for each day specifically (ie. Monday has different times than Tuesday).
Eg:
Sunday working hours       @ 10:00 to 12:00
Monday working hours       @ 9:00 to 16:00
Tuesday working hours      @ 10:00 to 18:00
Wednesday working hours@ 06:00 to 12:00
Thursday working hours     @ 08:00 to 14:00
Friday working hours           @ 11:00 to 12:00
Saturday working hours      @ 11:30 to 13:00

Can anyone resolve my problem.

Thanks in advance

There are many properties that can be set during initialization that cannot be changed through the API afterwards.

Take the Kendo UI ToolBar for example. You can add a button to the toolbar and set the text, but you cannot change the text afterwards unless you update the element directly. It may seem like a simple thing to change the text of an element, like so: $("#myButton").text("New Text"). However, if you had set the imageUrl as well, setting the text like I did above would remove the image. Knowing that, you could get the text node and update the nodeValue. That may work today but could easily be broken during a Kendo UI update (for example, if the update included a change that wraps the text in a span).

Having to deal with native elements after they have been created by the Kendo UI components is a dangerous practice for developers as it requires an internal knowledge of how elements are rendered based on the different options set. As mentioned above, it is also dangerous as any update could break our code. Therefore, it is imperative to expose methods that allow us to modify any properties through the API (where possible) to allow us to create clean and easy to maintain code.

If you search the feedback, you will see many requests to add a method here and a method there. There is even a related one to this called "Kendo Mobile: Methods to set properties dynamically".

Suggestion: When you have child elements, such as buttons on the toolbar, please allow us to update those widgets directly rather than through the parent. For example, instead of $("#myToolbar").data("kendoToolBar").enable("#myButton"), allow us to do something like this $("#myButton").data("kendoToolBarItem").enable();

Hi Team,

I would like to request a way to be able to select all child items in a group.  

Thank you!

We have a need to be able to provide a dropdown above the scheduler, in order to allow the end user to change the time zone of the scheduler dynamically, even after it has been initialized.  Our team was disappointed that this is currently not possible (http://www.telerik.com/forums/timezone-dropdown), but maybe in the future.  Thanks for reading.

Expose setOptions() for Kendo Wizard

Desired Behavior
setOptions shall update Wizard steps

    wizard.setOptions({
      steps: steps
    });

Destroy current Wizard and reinitialize with new steps

    let wizard = $("#wizard").data('kendoWizard');
    wizard.destroy();
    $("#wizard").empty();
    
    let steps = [];
    for	(var i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
      steps.push({
        title: "Tab " + i,
		content: "Tab Content " + i 
      });
    }
    
    $("#wizard").kendoWizard({
        steps: steps
    });

The same way it is possible to make the search case-insensitive by setting columns.filterable.ignoreCase to true, it would be great if there was a way to add a custom filter (e.g. make the search diacritics-insensitive, with a custom function or as part of provided functionality). Thanks in advance.

Hi Team,

I would like request adding automatic line breaks for Kendo UI Charts to help avoid lengthy labels.

Thanks!

I need to get the output of a grid saving to pdf without sending the resulting PDF directly to the user. For example, a PDF export option "localexport: true" which would return the data to code instead of directly to the client.

Currently, the file data can be retrieved using the private _drawPDF method:

        var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
        var progress = new $.Deferred();

        grid
          ._drawPDF(progress)
          .then((root) => {
            return kendo.drawing.exportPDF(root, grid.options.pdf);
          })
          .done((data) => {
            console.log(data);
          });

Example: https://dojo.telerik.com/rjEORuHy.

However, the approach does not work well in all scenarios for example, when there are multiple pages - https://dojo.telerik.com/iiifASYZ/2 

Thus, I would like to have a built -in method that will be suitable for all scenarios to generate and retreive the file data, without sending the file to the client.
