Set height in % cause an issue

[Mattia]

Hello! I've noticed that with last kendo release (2018.1.221.545) if I set the dialog height in % (not in pixels) the dialog window is displayed bad, here the dojo:

https://dojo.telerik.com/AFidU/2

I don't know if this behaviour is wanted, but all my dialogs in my application uses % for height, so cause me quite big issues.

Greetings and good work!

Hello Mattia,

Thank you for reporting the problem.

I have logged an issue in our official Github repository. Here is a link to the issue, where you can track our progress on resolving it. 

As a workaround of the problem you can use the calc() function to calculate the height of the Dialog in persentage.

<style>
    .k-dialog-content{
      height: calc(100% - 150px) !important;
    }
</style>

Note, that the pixels in the clac() function should be equal to the Dialog header and footer total height, including borders that are inside. The header and footer height are depending on the theme you are using. Here is a Dojo example where the workaround is demonstrated.

As a sign of gratitude your Telerik points are now updated.

Hello Neli, thanks for the reply, sadly in our application the user can change dynamiccaly the theme (one of kendo themes of course) so to make a general solution to this issue, requires me some other calculation on header and footer heights (i.e. I need to spend some work-time on it)

Instead it is possible, when the fix will be ok, to get just the part of kendo library with this fix? (I mean, without wait next kendo release)
