Kendo UI - Grid questions

0
votes

I am evaluating Kendo UI for use of it in our project. I would be using the Kendo UI JS (not the ASP.Net MVC one).

I stumbled upon a couple of things Kendo grid does not support. I just want clarification on some of the functionalities (some of the questions may sound very basic. Sorry I am just evaluating on the basis of demos provided and trying to fit in our requirement). I do not require any code but just require your help in evaluating kendo UI

  1. Kendo Grid does not support Grouping of Headers ?

    |-----------Header Master------------------|

    |--Sub Header-------|-----Sub Header----|

  2. Kendo Grid does not support Frozen Columns ?

  3. Does Kendo Grid support multiple summary columns with custom aggregate(that would be pulled from data source and hence not calculated on client side) ? How can we achieve this ? By Customer Footer template ?

  4. I could not find any example on the website, which shows how kendo ui grid deals with large data. say 10,000 rows ?

Answers to the questions at the current moment (28/10/2013):

  1. Kendo Grid does not support grouped Headers ( you can search the forums for some feasible work-arounds)
  2. Kendo Grid does not supported frozen-columns, however it should be implemented for the future releases.
  3. What is supported as footer templates is demonstrated here.
  4. What do you mean by larget data? If you enable server paging only the records for a specific page will be send to the client, so you can use it with as many records as you want. Also check virtualization (please notice it still works the same as a paging mechanism, so you can use it again the same way as in a regular paging scenario)
