The built-in export capabilities for the RadGridView are clunky and not well though out. Additionally, it doesn't fully support exporting hierarchical child data. (You can do it, but you have to go through a good bit of song and dance for something that I've seen other tool sets do automatically.)

I'd like to see the option fully baked that doesn't require code-behind (allowing an MVVM approach). And asynchronous methods that uses standard async-await conventions.

If you have the following model, the columns that show the Test and Date properties (in the derived class) cannot be sorted or filtered. Also, no header text is displayed.

 

To work this around, set the IsCustomSorting property of the corresponding columns and implement a custom sorting in the Sorting event of RadGridView.

 

When the RadGridView is bound to a collection of DynamicObject and runtime we add a new property to the objects, this new property will not be respected. The columns will not be refresh.

This happens only if there are many columns outside of the viewport (a scrollviewer is shown), with their TabStopMode property set to Skip.

In this case, the navigation needs some time in order to get to the next row and select the first available cell.

A possible workaround for this would be to implement a custom Keyboard Command Provider, and to replace the MoveNext command with a custom one, that moves the current cell, by setting the CurrentCellInfo property of RadGridView.

Nested property definitions are visible in situations when they don't match the filtering criteria.

After a cell is edited, a tooltip set through a style trigger is not shown.

Add a property to the RadGridView that provides a distinct template for adding a new row.

Sometimes you have classes with no default constructor. Those classes may have properties that are read-only after construction. This cannot be handled in the RadGridView, because you only have the choice of a CellEditTemplate. (I'm envisioning something akin to the RowDetailsTemplate.)

Example: I have a class that defines a invoice match for payment application. Once the invoice is set it cannot be changed. The user can still edit the match, but they're only allowed to edit the amount to be applied.

If your data contains uint, long or any numeric type different than Int32 or Decimal, the searching doesn't work.

 

When format cell is copying from Excell, only the formatted value is passed into the RadGridView.

 

 

When the bound to the RadGridView objects implement the IDataErrorInfo interface and an invalid cell is scrolled out of the viewport, the corresponding row becomes valid.

When there are 1000 (reproduce with 500) distinct values in the Popup filter and we try to select all of them it took 15 seconds and more when using ICustomPropertyProvider.

The GridViewMultiColumnComboBoxColumn of RadGridView allows you to enter the edit mode of the corresponding cells even when the IsReadOnly or IsReadOnlyBinding properties of the column are set to True. 

This is also reproducible when RadGridView.IsReadOnly property is set to True

This is reproducible only when the SelectionMode is set to Multiple.

When navigating through the cells with the left/right arrow keys, when the last column is reached normally the focus stays on that cell. However, when there are invisible columns on the left/right of the last visible one, the focus moves away from the grid.

As a workaround you can handle the PreviewKeyDown event of the RadGridView when the CurrentColumn is the last visible one.

My requirement is to give certain rows in the GridView a background color that is read from the database (so it's not a fixed list of colors). I use the RowStyle with a binding to the Background property. When the bound property is null, I fall back on the Transparent color.

This transparent background in combination with a GridViewComboBoxColumn sometimes causes rows to "stick" to the top or bottom of the grid. To simulate this, a ComboBox in the grid must be opened, then you need to scroll up or down until the field is outside the viewport. In some cases, the row sticks to the top or the bottom. After inspecting the Visual Tree, it appears that the row is still part of the Visual Tree, even though it is outside the viewport. I have attached a video and a sample project where you can see and test this behavior.

The content of the cell is set from .LoadContent() method and is returned from the CreateCellElement method of the column. 

One possible scenario for a fix is to change that behavior and apply directly the template as WPF DataGrid does. However, this is a huge breaking change with CreateCellElement method is widely used. The second approach is to leave the code as it is right now, return the element from method of DataTemplate and set the ContentTemplate property of the cell to that DataTemplate. This will cause the content to be loaded twice. Which will degrade the  

So, as it turns out the solution is either to introduce breaking change or degrade the performance. Both of them are against our believes and efforts to improve the controls. 

Our suggestion is to use a workaround -  setting triggers directly to the style. We do hope you understand our concerns. 

Setting GridViewCell content template by Style is not working with R1 2019.
