Good Day,

I believe it would be useful to update the `add` method to include the added items data Object, as you need to provide one to add it in the first place, to the options.items array in the widget itself. It would be consistent with the design of the widget in the first place and can allow dynamic code to iterate over newly added items without catering for specific bespoke IDs

 

Thankyou for your time,

Regards

Nathan

Many Kendo UI Widgets support enabling/disabling animations via their options. In our case, we always disable them. As of R1 2023, the toolbar widget does not support customizing or turning off animations and always slides in/out the options of splitButtons or the overflow menu.

To maintain a consistent look&feel, disabling animations should by supported by the toolbar as well.

Do you have any suggestions how this could be fixed in the meantime?

   

Currently, the Toolbar widget does not have setOptions method. It will be good to have the possibility to change the widget configuration after initialization by using the setOptions method.

Method to reset the menuButton items of a toolbar's splitbutton dynamically or to have a datasource that can be refreshed/reloaded.

Hello,

Buttons and button groups support badges only if they are "standing alone". If buttons or button groups are part of a toolbar item collection, badge system is not working/implemented. I don't see any reason why this feature would be missing from toolbar items unless it was maybe overlooked :) For the sake of consistency and usability I think toolbar items (at least buttons) should behave the same across.

In the KendoToolBar item configuration, there is currently a property called "overflow". The values of this property are: "never", "always", and "auto" (default). If the item.overflow value is set to "never" then the item remains in the toolbar and is not added to the overflow menu when the window shrinks. If the value is set to "always" or "auto", then the item is displayed in the overflow menu. The problem, however, is that sometimes you may want a toolbar item to disappear when the page shrinks, but you don't want or need it in the overlow menu.

A specific example is a toolbar item of type "separator". When the separator item.overflow is set to "auto", it adds a gap in the overflow menu between other items. I don't want this gap. Therefore, I set the separator item.overflow to "never". Unfortunately, this means that the separator remains on the toolbar. In the case where I have several separators in the toolbar with overflow set to "never", these all just stack up next to each other in the toolbar as the window is shrunk. I want them to disappear, but also not show up in the overflow menu. An overflow value of "hidden" could solve this problem.

BUG: setting a kendo ToolBar item.hidden with type of separator does not work. The separator is still displayed. For example:
```
$("#mytoolbar").kendoToolBar({
    items: [
        {
            type: "button",
            text: "button 1",
            hidden: true
        },
        {
            type: "spearator",
            hidden: true
        }
    ]
});
```

In this case, the button is hidden but the separator is not.
