In our project we control column widths manually as we have complex logic on how wide each column should be, based on a number of external criteria. However, those widths are not fixed and might change during the lifetime of the data grid.
This was not causing any problems up to version 5.11.0 but after we upgraded the Kendo packages this controlled behavior of the column widths broke:
kendo-react-grid v5.11.0 example (working):
https://codesandbox.io/s/crazy-bird-ss7mgl?file=/app/main.tsx
kendo-react-grid latest example (broken):
https://codesandbox.io/s/dazzling-antonelli-wxsflj?file=/app/main.tsx
If we inspect the elements of the data grid, we can see that there is an inline style attribute on the header and body tables, setting the total width of those <table> elements to the sum of its columns. However, that value is not updating after the initial mount as it was prior to v5.12.0 which effectively makes the column widths uncontrollable.
