Currently in my application, all textareas auto-resize (vertically) as content is added. We use the opensource jquery.autogrow-textarea.js to auto-resize all textarea by simply using the code:
$('textarea').autogrow();
However Kendo Editor does not autogrow as we require. How can I make editor to auto grow as users enter more content? I think Telerik Ajax editor has a similar function?
Kindly help me with this if there is any solution to this. Thank you.

This is a great question. Mark, did you ever get an answer or find a solution for this?

This feature will be part of the inline editor functionality scheduled for 2013.Q2. You will be able to initialize the editor from a contentEditable <div>, which will grow automatically as content is inserted.

Good morning,
Have this been implemented? What are the control properties that need to be adjusted to apply auto resize?
Thanks,
Shehab

Yes, see the inline editing demo. If you need this functionality for the sandboxed editor, I'm afraid that it is not available, nor scheduled.

Thank you Alex, would it be possible to frame the Inline Editor just to friendly indicate it is a text box?

You can apply any styling to the inline editor element, directly in the page, for example:
#editor { border: 3px solid #000 }

Hi Alex,
Is there any solution for auto-grow in a classic editor now (July 2018)?

Hello Dongsheng,
I am afraid that the discussed functionality is yet not available for the classic Kendo Editor. If you think that such feature would add value to the widget, I would suggest you to cast your vote for the following feature request.
