Multi-column Headers With Kendo Grid

Question

I don't know what this is called, and I've messed around a lot with the headerTemplate but can't figure out how to produce this look. I need the second row of column names to 'act normally' in terms of sorting and filtering, but everything I try breaks that. I have no idea if headerTemplate is even the right way to do this? Is there a name for this kind of grouping? My research is turning up a whole lot of nothing, so I suspect I'm using the wrong keywords. What is this layout called?

Note: for security reasons I can't post a code dump (super nervous about the image too). If a specific thing is needed, please let me know and I'll try to anonymize it. But, mostly I'm just looking for suggestions to try other than playing with the headerTemplate.

Answer 1

This is now natively supported by the Kendo grid. Here's an example.
