Hi,

I wanted to request a feature for the .net maui datagrid.  I would like if it were possible to merge cells across rows when they have the same value.  For example, I use the datagrid to display events and it would be so much more readable if all the events that were on the same day (date) showed the date cell just once merged across a few rows rather than duplicating it multiple times.

Thanks

I recently migrated my code from Xamarin.forms to MAUI.
RadListView.GetDataView now always returns null in MAUI , its working fine in Xamarin.forms. 

I am trying to  close all the groups while loading, but facing a null exception with DATAVIEW

protected override void OnAppearing()
{
        base.OnAppearing();
        try
        {
 //collapse all
 var dataView = MyRadListView.GetDataView();
 dataView.CollapseAll();}}    

If this worked in earlier releases, it no longer does.

Using iOS Simulator (set to iPhone 15 iOS 17.4) - with a DataGrid as below, double-clicking the text cell will crash the app. I have not yet tried on a native device build (not simulator.)

<telerik:RadDataGrid.Columns>
    <telerik:DataGridTextColumn PropertyName="ObjectName" HeaderText="Name"/>
</telerik:RadDataGrid.Columns>

Hi,

Do you have on your roadmap to include a Shimmer View / Control as part of your .NET MAUI offerings to tidy up a screen loading indication.

From a UI/UX perspective, a shimmer sits better with our user community rather than a loading indicator.

Thank you,

Shane

I would like to draw attention to this at an early stage.
When using MAUI Nightly 8.0.20-nightly.10376, the app crashes immediately upon startup if you set Telerik Popup Settings in the MAUI Styles

See min repro example https://github.com/baaaaif/MauiNightlyCrash

<MauiVersion>8.0.20-nightly.10376</MauiVersion>

<Style TargetType="telerik:RadTimePicker">
    <Setter Property="PopupSettings">
        <Setter.Value>
            <telerik:PickerPopupSettings IsHeaderVisible="False" />
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

The Bottom Sheet component provides an intuitive way to display additional content to the users. It appears on the bottom of a screen as an overlay and presents users with a choice of actions that they must take.

Progress/Telerik --

I would like Telerik to extend the Microsoft .NET MAUI MediaPicker control to support the selection of MULTIPLE Photos and/or Videos from the Image Gallery.

I believe this is a reasonably standard scenario for use cases where the user takes multiple Photos or Videos with the Camera and then would like to upload them to a server for storage in a web app and database.

The current Microsoft MediaPicker supports the selection of a SINGLE item only.

.NET MAUI - Platform Integration - Media - Photos and Videos

And while there are several GitHub libraries that have done this for Xamarin.Forms (and rely on Xamarin.Essentials), they are either archived or not updated in a timely manner like a 3rd Party - Paid For - Control would be.

Even Telerik/Progress has recently done a Blog Post on how to use the Microsoft Control - Leomaris Reyes published this:

Getting Started with the Media Picker in .NET MAUI

Also, I believe this Feature Request is asking for the same feature:

https://feedback.telerik.com/maui/1552553-upload-images-file-via-in-net-maui

Now, for me personally, I only need multiple image selection.  So, if that's easier without the support for the other pieces, I would be happy.  To be complete, I'm thinking others would need to select multiple videos.

From Ms. Reyes Blog Post....

private async void TakePhoto(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  FileResult photo = await MediaPicker.Default.PickPhotoAsync(new MediaPickerOptions
  {
    Title = "Select your photo"
  });
                  
  // Here, add the code that is being explained in the next step.
                   
}

The new control would have something like this:

private async void TakePhoto(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  IEnumerable<FileResult> photos = await RadMediaPicker.PickPhotosAsync(new MediaPickerOptions
  {
    Title = "Select your photos"
  });
                  
  // Here, add the code to loop through and process the selected images
                   
}

Please let me know if you require additional information.
