Creating or editing event in mobile browser

[Christian]

Hello,

I'm using the scheduler component (2015.1.408, option mobile st to true) within a cordova android project. The app is running fine except that creating and editing events (trough tapping on the respective areas within the control) doesn't work as expected. Tapping seems only to work "occasionally" - i.e. I need to tap several times to open the event editor. This behaviour seems to be some sort of general problem as the scheduler demos show the same behaviour.

Am I missing something or is this a known issue?

Any workarounds?

 

Many thanks in advance for all comments.

 

Regards,

Chris

Hello Chris,

We are not aware of problems related to events creation in mobile devices. You said, that the issue is observable outside of the cordova app. Could you share with us more about the performed tests - used device, browser and etc?

Hello Georgi,

thanks for your reply. I've prepared the following Dojo Snippet to illustrate the issue: http://dojo.telerik.com/@kc/iBaFA

The issue is reproducable for me on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S with Android 5.0.2 and Google Chrome 39.0.2171.93 and also on other types of mobile phones and tablets (eg. Samsung Galaxy S5 Active, Android 5.0, Chrome 42.0.2311.111).

With this snippet creating new events usually works but trying to edit an existing event can be very tricky.

Just try to open the editor of an existing event -> press cancel to close the editor -> try to open the editor again ... and so on ...

 

Thanks for your help & Regards,

Chris

Hello Chris,

Thank you for the additional information. Indeed, the editing of an event is harder in Android device than in iOS device. We will further investigate the case and will get back to you once we have more details about the described behavior.

Hello Chris,

This is to let you know that we addressed the issue regarding hard editing in Android devices and the fix will be included in the next internal build of Kendo UI due to the end of this week.

I can not open/edit events in Kendo Scheduler on a mobile device using the demo at:

   http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/scheduler/index

On a desktop browser, clicking on the event opens an editor. On a mobile touch device, tapping on the event does nothing. This repros also when running Chrome device emulation as iPhone.

So I don't understand what you mean that tapping does work on mobile devices. Am I doing something wrong?

 Thanks.

I figured out the answer to my question. On mobile devices, the scheduler needs to be configured for mobile using mobile:"phone" or mobile:"tablet", as well as instantiate a kendo.mobile.Application.
Here's an example: http://dojo.telerik.com/@ggkrustev/uCiNU
