I create a KendoWindow with appendTo set to a specific div.

the expected behavior is:

1) moving window inside parent boundaries
2) maximize windows inside parent boundaries

How can I obtain this behavior ?

Hello Emanuele,

The behavior you experience is working as expected.

As explicitly mentioned in the documentation "this does not constrain the window dragging within the given elemen".

http://docs.kendoui.com/api/web/window#appendto objectstringdefault

I had already read your documentation.

My question is, how can I get similar behavior ?

Hello Emanuele,

Since the functionality is not supported out-of-the-box I would suggest you to share such idea on our Kendo User Voice page.
Depending how many people will vote for this functionality we will consider adding it sooner to the suite.

Hello Aditya,

A possible work-around to limit the dragging of the Window out of coordinates (900x600 in the example below) could be the following:


 
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $("#windowName").data("kendoWindow").dragging._draggable.bind("drag", function (e) {
 
            var wnd = $("#window").data("kendoWindow");
            var position = wnd.wrapper.position();
 
            var minT = 0;
            var minL = 0;
            //Get the Window width and height and
            //place them in position of the hard-coded width and height
            var maxT = 600 - wnd.wrapper.height();
            var maxL = 900 - wnd.wrapper.width();
 
            if (position.left < minL) {
                coordinates = { left: minL };
                $(wnd.wrapper).css(coordinates);
            }
 
            if (position.top < minT) {
                coordinates = { top: minT };
                $(wnd.wrapper).css(coordinates);
            }
 
            if (position.left > maxL) {
                coordinates = { left: maxL };
                $(wnd.wrapper).css(coordinates);
            }
 
            if (position.top > maxT) {
                coordinates = { top: maxT };
                $(wnd.wrapper).css(coordinates);
            }
        })
    })
</script>


You can use this as a base point and extend it with more complex logic.
