Firefox ESR, date field not initialized as DatePicker

[Andreas]

When mapping a date file as grid column, it's not being transformed into a DatePicker.
This doesn't happen with Edge, Chrome or the latest Firefox, I'm only experiencing this with the ESR version of Firefox.

Example:  

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<HuntingReportModel>()
        .Name("test")
        .Columns(x => x.Bound(y => y.Date))
    .ToolBar(x => x.Create()))

See attachment for the resulting control...

using jquery ui without the wrappers it works.

manually calling .kendoDatePicker helps but it's really just a bad workaround...

Browser: Firefox ESR (52.5.3 & 52.6.0)

Kendo: 2018.1.117

Actually I just realized, that other browsers don't initialize the date as well... it is basically just using the built in datepickers...
Do I have to make a editor template with datepicker, so that the kendo datepicker is used by default?

Thanks!

Hello, Hermann,

The Kendo UI Grid should automatically use a DatePicket for the date columns editor if the field is set a DateTime in the model.

If you would like to modify the DatePicker default properties we can recommend using an EditorTemplate for that column.

If the issue still occurs on an ESR FireFox, please provide an example reproducing the issue and I will gladly assist further.
