Wizard Control in KendoReact, similiar to Asp.Net Ajax Wizard Control
A Wizard Control, allowing any number or steps vertical or horizontal plus ability to modify the look and feel of the steps.  Also the ability to add other controls within each step.  For example a wizard control with the ability to have 3 steps, in which one would have a grid, or scheduler or other components.

Hey Kyle,

Thanks for your continued feedback! Originally when we implemented the Stepper along with the Form component we were able to discuss out implementation with a few clients to see whether or not it satisfied their requirement for a Wizard component. The responses there were that yes, this combination did work and having more control over each step (like we've highlighted here) was the preferred way to go hence why we marked this as `Completed`.

However, based on your feedback here I'll re-open this item to be `Planned` (which means it's in our short-listed backlog of potential components again) and let folks like yourself continue to provide feedback on what we can provide on top of the combination of components like Stefan mentioned and potentially deliver a standalone Wizard component. As it stands right now we do have our hands full over the next couple of months, but we will add this in to the pool of potential components to tackle once our current set of components and features are handled.

Thanks for your willingness to contribute to the discussion and provide more insight as to what you need out of this type of UI component.

Regards,
Carl

The multi-step-form documentation you referenced is not even a component. It is a guide as to how you can implement a wizard yourself.  You still have to manage all of your own state, steps, and even separate stepper and form elements. It is the same as if I just implemented a wizard myself. I think this needs to be looked at, because saying Kendo React has a multi-step form component is very misleading.

Hello, Kyle,

Yes, we agree that it is not 100% the same, but the same result can be achieved using the Stepper and the Form component.

This can be observed in the Multi-Step Form, which functions nearly the same as the Wizard component:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/form/multi-step-form/ (please test with the default theme, we will update the viewport height as with the other themes the buttons have to be scrolled to)

Please advise if the Multi-Step Form is still not converting the originally requested functionality.

Regards,
Stefan

I might be missing something, but I don't think steppers satisfy the request at all. According to the documentation, the default Stepper has a label and an icon, that is it. You can do custom rendering: https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/layout/stepper/custom_rendering/, but that is not really a solution tot he request above. I would also like to request that a component that in addition to the label and icon, accepts forms in its "items" and calls the onsubmit for each form when going from step to step (this is just one possible implementation). The real request is that this component: https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/wizard/index be ported to KendoReact.

 

Thanks!!

Kyle

Hi everyone,

While it's not called a Wizard component, I do believe that the KendoReact Stepper component fits all the requirements of this feedback item. The Stepper let's you completely control the content of each step and modify the look-and-feel of each of the steps in the Stepper itself. Marking this as complete, but if we missed any features or there are more Wizard-like behaviors you may be looking for, let us know by opening another feedback item with specific details!

Hello, Doug,

Thank you for the request.

Depending on the interest for this component, we will implement it in a future release.

If there are official plans to release it, this item will be updated.
