Kendo UI 2025 Q2

Pager

Starting with Q2 2025, the Pager provides an adaptive mode that enhances its responsive behavior and optimizes the user experience on different screen sizes.

The adaptive mode introduces several notable changes to the default Pager behavior:

Input Behavior Change: When the input option is set to true, the Pager now renders a NumericTextBox in place of numerical buttons for pages, rather than displaying a textbox next to the arrow buttons.
No Numeric Buttons: When input is true, numerical page buttons are not rendered at all.
Page Selection Dropdown Replacement: The dropdown for selecting a page is replaced with a NumericTextBox.
Removal of numbersSelectLabel Property: This property has been removed as the select element is no longer used.
