Workaround for using virtual scrolling, grouping and remote data in a grid.

[Rebekah]

I know the documentation specifically says the kendoGridGroupBinding only works with in memory data, but is there a way around this possibly? My data is grouped by date and the idea is to allow the user to scroll back in time to any date within the last year or so. Using paging would impact the UX a great deal in this situation. I'm mostly looking for ideas, or insights from anyone who has attempted something similar. 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Rebekah,

As mentioned the Grid virtual scrolling functionality has only limited support for grouping and it necessitates using the built-in directive and all data to be available locally.

I am afraid the only available workaround seems to prefetch all data so that it is available locally and bind the kengoGridGroupBinding directive to it.
