Hi,

I am doing default PDF export functionality of Kendo Grid. But exported PDF file has extra characters in meta data. That results weird title of the PDF in Chrome browser. I have attached screen shot of the exported pdf and also a meta data of the file.  

I found few solutions (https://www.telerik.com/forums/saving-grids-or-charts-as-pdf-and-getting-strange-characters-in-the-metadata) that mentioned that I need to have <meta Charset='UTF-8'> in my code, where grid has been initialized. But I have set UTF-8 charset only in my entire code, still facing same issue.

I have few questions:

1) Which charset value is getting used to export the grid in PDF? (i) <meta Charset='UTF-8'> written in my code or (ii) default export functionality has its own charset value

2)  I am using Telerik.UI.for.AspNet.Core 2020.3.1021 version for kendo UI. Which specific library is being used for PDF generation in Telerik.UI.for.AspNet.Core  2020.3.1021 ? 

3) Is there anything else to try to resolve this issue?

I have a kendoGrid with filterable columns using jQuery. Let's say I have a column named Title. When I click on filter icon besides the column name a dropdown occurs that has "Filter" ption and on hovering over "Filter" option a new dropdown containing all the values from the columns is opened. I want this newly opened dropdown to the left always. How can I do so ?

$('#grid').data("kendoGrid");
            if (grid != undefined || grid != null)
                $('#grid').empty();

            var grid = $("#grid").kendoGrid({
                dataSource: DataSource,
                    schema: {
                        data: function (response) {
                            return response;
                        }
                    },
                },
                sortable: true,
                filterable: true,
                columnMenu: true,
                reorderable: true,
                resizable: true,
                multi: true,
                selectable: true,
                dataBinding: function () {
                    record = (this.dataSource.page() - 1) * this.dataSource.pageSize();
                },
                noRecords: true,
                messages: {
                    noRecords: "No records found"
                },
                pageable: {
                    pageSize: 5,
                    input: true
                },
                columns: [
                    {
                        title: "Sr. No.",
                        template: "#= ++record #",
                        width: 70
                    },
                    {
                        field: "Title", title: 'Title',
                        width: "25%",
                        attributes: {
                            style: 'white-space: nowrap;'
                        },
                        filterable: {
                            multi: true,
                            extra: false,
                            search: true,
                            operators: {
                                string: {
                                    eq: "Is equal to",
                                    neq: "Is not equal to",
                                    contains: "Contains"
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    },

                    {
                        command: [
                            { name: "edit1", text: "", iconClass: "k-icon k-i-eye", className: "ob-view" }],
                        title: "Action", lock: true, width: 80, headerAttributes: {
                            style: "text-align: center;"
                        }
                    }
                ]
            });

}

I am trying to call a function from the javascript from filter. If I try to filter the column , the function is not being called. There is no any error in console and the value is coming into the grid. But just that trigger is not called when filter the column. Also I wondering  if I remove the function from the script , it will look for the function and will give the error function not found. But if there is function, it will not call the function and alert message is not getting 
We are using the latest version of Kendo Telerik grid. Why the filterable.UI does not work in Asp.net core MVC? How can I find the reason why it is not called?

Here is my code

columns.Bound(e => e.City)
                .Filterable(filterable => filterable.UI("cityFilter"))
                .Width(200);

<script type="text/javascript">
    

 function cityFilter(element) {
        alert('testting'
    }
</script>

Hello,

We have upgraded our Kendo jQuery package. The previous version was 2019.1.220 and our latest version is 2023.3.1114. We observed that

• Some classes were changed in the new js say buttons in the kendo grid.
• Some CSS files are removed. (Assuming it is not compatible with the current version.

After upgrading some of our css are not getting applied. Attaching the screenshots for reference. I'm attaching my sample code.

<link href="{{ URL::asset('css/boostrap_v4_alpha.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <link href="{{ URL::asset('kendo/styles/material-main.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <link href="{{ URL::asset('kendo/styles/font-icons/index.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <link href="{{ URL::asset('kendo/styles/bootstrap-main.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

Hi....

Issue is the  icons don't change when clicking the expand/ contract button in the kendo-grid:

In the context of a hierarchical kendo grid,  it used to, in prior versions (2020.1.1118) swapped icons:

•  from + to - if the user desired to expand and show the child rows in a hierarchical table:

 from - to + if the user wanted collapse the child rows and show only the parent rows.

Now as of  version 2023.3.1010:

,,,something is interfering with my code, guessing that some  CSS references have changed.

Here is a DOJO link:

Untitled | Kendo UI Dojo (telerik.com)

If the link doesn't work (I am new to Kendo as of July and I still haven't gotten the hang of saving stuff on the DOJO) , I have attached a text file (with HTML) that the exact code to test in the DOJO.  You might need to stretch the right side that shows the active code to see the button in the header.

Also, the version prior to 2023.3.1010 showed an evil twin :) ... a little plus sign in addition to the default + plus icon... so you might want to go back a version to look at that too.

Can you give me some ideas on how to fix the issue of the icons NOT swapping on the 2023.3.1010 version when it was working fine previously?

Regards,

George

Hi,

I am currently attempting to upgrade the Kendo UI from 2022.2.510 to 2023.2.829 and need some assistance figuring out which .css files and .js files are the closest match to what I have for 2022.2.510. Wow it's different....seems like most of the css and javascript libraries have been reorganized.

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/site.css" asp-append-version="true" />

I am fairly new at working with the Kendo UI -- I may just need to be pointed to documentation or a README that maps the old files to the new(?). I am not using anything fancy...these are pretty much the default controls.

So far I have not attempted to swap out ANYTHING.... I don't even know where to begin.. I am however, starting to do this shortly.  Yikes! 

FYI: I am using the following controls:

• kendoDropDownList
• kendoButton
• kendoGrid (detailInit -- using the hiarchical stuff).
• kendoSwitch
• kendoNotification
• kendoToolTip

Be curious if you all have a recommend approach or stratedgy to upgrading Kendo UI for jQuery libraries?

I'd also like to know the best approach to minifying the Kendo folders?

The Kendo stuff is stashed in the wwwroot (I did not design this structurer ... but I am stuck with it.):

Thanks for your help and patience  ^__^
