Post by: paramvir on June 27, 2026, 10:20:03 pm

pqgrid v11.2.0 Release Notes

Official jQuery 4 Support

This release introduces full compatibility with jQuery 4.0+, ensuring that pqgrid remains at the forefront of the evolving web ecosystem.
pqselect also introduces official support for jQuery 4.0+ in this cycle.
Developers can now leverage the performance enhancements of the latest jQuery core without worrying about library conflicts or legacy overhead.

Expanded Named and Locale-Sensitive Formatting

The grid now supports sophisticated formatting tokens such as Fixed, Standard, Short Date, Long Date, and Time, allowing for high-level abstraction of data presentation.
This formatting intelligence is fully integrated into the data lifecycle, extending beyond the UI to impact copy-paste operations, Excel/PDF/HTML/CSV exports, and data imports.
By adhering to locale-sensitive standards, the grid automatically adjusts displays for international audiences, ensuring that a "Short Date" is intuitively rendered and processed based on the user's regional settings.

Smart Inbuilt Format Picker UI

A new, context-aware Format Picker has been added to the standard toolbar, providing an out-of-the-box solution for end-user customization.
The UI dynamically detects the data type of the active cell—whether it is a number, date, or timestamp—and presents relevant formatting options accordingly.
This "Smart" picker allows users to toggle between currency styles, decimal precision, and various date-time strings on the fly, significantly reducing the need for custom developer-built configuration menus.
Note that this feature and associated API is available in Ultimate and OEM variants only

API enhancements

More inbuilt controls are added directly to the toolbar.items option. This provides an easier and declarative way to initialize the toolbar.
More useful and convenient ways to initialize the context menu are now available. More properties added to context menu items.
Key navigation is enhanced with an Enter mode similar to Excel. This mode allows all 4 arrow keys to be used to navigate out of an editing cell.

Native ECMAScript Modules (ESM) Support

This version introduces official ESM support via dedicated .mjs module files, allowing for modern development workflows and seamless integration into modern bundlers (such as Vite, Webpack 5, and Rollup) and native browser ESM support.
ESM distribution bundles are now included out of the box as .mjs files for pqgrid, jquery-ui-pack, pqselect, pqtouch and localization providing clean JavaScript imports and compatibility with optimized modern production pipelines.
