Hi,
Is it possible to change the groupby area panel of the grid to be outside of the grid control?
Something like this:
| Search bar |
| group_by_area | some other options |
| another bar |
| IGGrid |
Eheheh
Possible?
Best Regards,
Francisco Correia
Hi Francisco,I'm afraid that the group-by area is a child to the grid's container DIV for a reason and that cannot be changed.However, there's a way to get what you're after.Since the igGrid always has an ID, you will always know the ID of the group-by area and then you can use the after() method to add your "another bar" below the group-by area like so:
$("#grid1_groupbyarea").after("<div>My custom toolbar</div>");
I tested and grouping columns in the group-by area still works after the DIV was appended below it.
Let us know if you need help with anything else.Cheers!Borislav
In order to achieve the behavior I wnat. I was able to "remove" the groupbyarea from inside de IgGrid component and add it to the Div I want.
The problem I'm experiencing now is that when I drag the colums to this area, they group but they are "hidden" or not "appearing" inside the groupbyarea
What I've right now is this:
<div id="mygroupbycontainer"></div>
<div id="grid"></div> <!-- this is the div where the grid is loaded -->
then i run this jscript
$(document).ready(function () { $("#grid_groupbyarea").appendTo($("#mygroupbycontainer")); $("#grid").remove('#grid_groupbyarea'); // with or without this line the behavior is the same. }); The grouparea is exchanged but the drag is not appearing inside the new area.
$(document).ready(function () { $("#grid_groupbyarea").appendTo($("#mygroupbycontainer")); $("#grid").remove('#grid_groupbyarea'); // with or without this line the behavior is the same. });
The grouparea is exchanged but the drag is not appearing inside the new area.
Hi Francisco,I'm afraid that manipulation you are trying to do might not be supported (or recommended).Please note that the igGrid has a very strict structure on which we rely for the internal logic and most of the event hooks.Thus moving the group-by area from its original position to another may tamper with the group-by feature's logic.It's one of those "do at your own risk" scenarios I'm afraid.Hope I've help you clarify the matter.Borislav
