Text selection does not hold consistently when click on font family drop down.

[Sameep]

Hello,

I am using Kendo version Kendo UI v2020.2.617 in our project, I have implemented custom fonts in the fonts family tool. When I select any text to change its font for some instances, the selection gets held until the time I select the font and after the font selection is completed. Still, when I select the text and try to open the font dropdown, the selection is getting deselected, which means the selection is not getting hold in the editor.

Even I faced the same issue for the default fontName tool when I implemented it before trying the custom.

Will you please help me with what might be the possible reasons for it? 

 

Code which I implemented -

{
                    name: "fontName",
                    items: [{
                        text: "Andale Mono",
                        value: "Andale Mono"
                    }, {
                        text: "Arial",
                        value: "Arial"
                    }, {
                        text: "Arial Black",
                        value: "Arial Black"
                    }, {
                        text: "Book Antiqua",
                        value: "Book Antiqua"
                    }, {
                        text: "Comic Sans MS",
                        value: "Comic Sans MS"
                    }, {
                        text: "Courier New",
                        value: "Courier New"
                    }, {
                        text: "Georgia",
                        value: "Georgia"
                    }, {
                        text: "Helvetica",
                        value: "Helvetica"
                    }, {
                        text: "Impact",
                        value: "Impact"
                    }, {
                        text: "Symbol",
                        value: "Symbol"
                    }, {
                        text: "Tahoma",
                        value: "Tahoma"
                    }, {
                        text: "Terminal",
                        value: "Terminal"
                    }, {
                        text: "Times New Roman",
                        value: "Times New Roman"
                    }, {
                        text: "Trebuchet MS",
                        value: "Trebuchet MS"
                    }, {
                        text: "Verdana",
                        value: "Verdana"
                    }, {
                        text: "Webdings",
                        value: "Webdings"
                    }, {
                        text: "Wingdings",
                        value: "Wingdings"
                    }]
                }

Thank you

Hello Martin,

Thank you so much for raising a bug report.

I also want to add that I am facing the same selection issue with the font size tool. This time around, I have not used any custom font size with the tool, instead used the tool named fontSize as it is.

Will you please look into this?

Thank you,

Sameep Sawant.

Hello, Sameep,

I tried to reproduce the issue with the fontSize tool in this Dojo example, but so far the selection is preserved. Could you please let me know how I can reproduce the behaviour?

Hello, Martin,

When I select any text, the selection gets deselected when I try applying font size to that particular text.

Here are the steps that I followed -

1. Select any text

2. Select any font size

 

While using the font size tool I am using the default tool that Kendo provides with default font sizes i.e. "fontSize".

Hello, Sameep,

Here you will find a small video where you can see that the font selection is preserved after following the steps you mentioned. Could you please let me know if I am missing something?
