Have a grid filter menu like the jquery and angular packages. The grid filter menu is much more compact and wastes less space than the filter row.
The filter menu is implemented as part of the Column Menu. Please check the documentation to see how the menu can be customized to match the desired functionality: The column menu is available since version 2.2.0. More details and documentation can be found here: https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/grid/columns/column-menu/#toc-column-menu This is available since version 2.2.0.
Yes, I need this too. My clients are not happy with our current design in our react application as not using this type of filter yet. The Kendo React team told me that this should be available by mid september. Hope that it comes soon.
Very good suggestion. I just asked for this feature last week so I am voting this up as well.
