Can't add new items to grid when filter is applied

[Itai]

I have a simple grid with filter (row mode), and it seems the grid fails to add new items when the filter is applied. Clicking the "Add new record" does nothing, not even triggering the grid `edit` event. 

 

I have found this question on StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17840312/cant-add-new-object-to-kendoui-grid-if-filter-is-applied-to-any-column but this seems an overly-complicated solution to a simple problem.  Is there a more direct way of allowing the creation of new items while filter is on?  I don't mind if I'll have to clear all filter fields, as long as the user doesn't have to do so manually.

Actually, even disabling the button while a filter is applied is acceptable, but having a non-functional button that is not disabled is bad user experience, so I want to avoid it.

Hello Itai,

I was unable to reproduce the mentioned behavior on my end. Could you send us an isolated runnable example that demonstrates it so we could review it locally and provide further insight?

I am looking forward to hearing from you.
