Grid size and scroll

TreeGrid documentation

Describes how to control width and height of the whole grid and when and how to scroll its content.

Default behavior

By default TreeGrid is rendered into its main div tag and does not change its size. The main tag should have set its height and width style attributes, otherwise grid sets them to 100%.
In strict mode the main tag height attribute should be set to fixed height if it can affect body height, otherwise grid automatically sets <Cfg MaxVScroll='2000'/>.
If the grid content is smaller than the main tag, there is shown empty space inside the main tag, if the grid is bigger than the main tag it shows its scrollbars.
The main tag has automatically set overflow:hidden and you must not change it.
When grid cannot show its content because it wider or higher than the main tag size, it shows error message "Too small extents". To not show the message, set <Lang><Text ExtentErr=""/></Lang>.
When grid cannot show its content horizontally, it first tries to minimize all fixed columns and Pager that have CanResize='1' to their MinWidth. If it is not enough, it hides all fixed columns and Pager that have CanHide='1'.
new 6.0 <Cfg> bool

ExactSize

[1]
If the size of grid is computed according to the real main tag size.
For 1 it preserves also percentage width inside tables and similar layouts.
Set it to 0 for large tables when grid becomes slow when updating layout.
If used external objects like Flash or SilverLight in grid cells, it should be set to 0.
new 12.0 API event bool

OnSizeError

(TGrid grid, int width, int height)
Called when the grid cannot be rendered due too small size of the main tag.
Solve this problem by changing grid content or resizing the main tag, call Update() and return true.
width is the available width in pixels, negative means error.
height is the available height in pixels, negative means error.

Maximize grid width and height

To fill the whole main tag by grid content set <Cfg ConstHeight='1' ConstWidth='1'/> or use some row with <I RelHeight='1'/> and column with <C RelWidth='1'/>.
To fill the whole window by main tag set <Cfg MaxHeight='1' MaxWidth='1'/>, ensure that your page layout fulfills all requirements for the MaxHeight attribute!
You can set minimal size of the main tag by <Cfg MinTagHeight='...' MinTagWidth='...'/>, maximal size of the main tag by <Cfg MaxTagHeight='...' MaxTagWidth='...'/>.
<Cfg> bool

ConstHeight

If set to 1, updates height of grid to fill whole main tag. It does not modify main tag height, see MaxHeight.
It is ignored when set NoVScroll = '1'.
In fact it adds to grid new special row <Space RelHeight='1' Space='2' Kind='Fill'/>. This row is positioned between body and foot section.
To better control this space, you can add this <Space> row by yourself instead of using ConstHeight attribute.
If grid already contains some row with RelHeight attribute set, the ConstHeight attribute is ignored.
! If you use ConstHeight, do not set height of main tag in percent. !
chg 13.0 <Cfg> int

ConstWidth

[6]
If set, it adds new white ConstWidth column to middle or right section to resize grid content to main tag width. It does not modify main tag width, see MaxWidth.
It add the column <C Name="_ConstWidth" ConstWidth='1' Def="ConstWidth"/> with also disabled all standard features like sorting, filtering or dragging.
The column uses CSS class GxCellEmpty for all cells except header, here uses GxCellHeaderEmpty
0No column added
1The column is placed between middle and right section, into right section if there is some column, otherwise to the middle section.
2The column is always placed to the right end of middle section.
3(new 7.0) The column is placed to the right end of right section if exists, otherwise to the middle section.
4(new 7.0) It resizes the grid content to show at least Columns and Cfg buttons on toolbar.
If the toolbar is hidden or it does not contain the buttons, it does nothing. Column position is the same as 3.
5(new 13.0) It resizes the grid content to show all space cells. Column position is the same as 3.
6(new 13.0) Like 5, but shows cells up to LastVisible only, if defined.
10 - 9999(new 7.0) It resizes the grid content maximally to this pixel value, if less than main tag width. Column position is the same as 3.
Useful to not hide some buttons on toolbar (e.g. Columns visibility menu), when grid is too narrow due hidden many columns
For example ConstWidth="500" ensures the Toolbar will be at least 500px wide, but when the grid columns together are wider than 500px, it does not resize the grid any more.
It is ignored when set NoHScroll='1'.
If you permit users to hide all columns you should ensure that the columns menu will be still accessible, the simplest way is to set appropriate ConstWidth.
<Cfg> int

MaxHeight

If set, updates height of main tag to fill the whole window. It does not modify grid content height, see ConstHeight.
It cannot be used when ResizingMain is set to 1 or 3 (vertical resizing).
Is possible to have more grids on page (vertically) with MaxHeight set, in this case their height is computed as ratio of their MaxHeight value or as percentage, see MaxHeightPercent.
To let grid maximize its main tag to window height, on your page there must not be:
a) any parent tag (in hierarchy from grid to <body>) with overflow set to hidden, auto or scroll.
b) any parent tag (in hierarchy from grid to <body>) with position:absolute.
c) any tag (except tags included in tag with not visible overflow or absolute position) with height set to percentage (like height:100%).
new 6.0 <Cfg> bool

MaxHeightPercent

If the MaxHeight attribute is set in percentage or as ratio
0 - the MaxHeight is ratio of the sum of all these tags in the MaxHeightParent or body - the tags always fill exactly the whole MaxHeightParent or body
e.g. two grids with MaxHeight='20' and MaxHeight='30' will be high 20/(20+30) = 0.4 and 30/(20+30) = 0.6
1 - the MaxHeight is % of 100%, the 100% is the remaining height in the MaxHeightParent or body
e.g. two grids with MaxHeight='20' and MaxHeight='30' will be high 20% and 30% and there will be empty space with 50% remaining height.
new 6.0 <Cfg> int

MaxHeightReserved

This height will be reserved empty in the MaxHeightParent or body, in pixels.
This space will be always empty when applying MaxHeight.
new 6.0 <Cfg> string

MaxHeightParent

Offset parent to calculate the height according to, when applying MaxHeight. The id of the tag.
If it not set, the offset parent is document.body or the nearest parent tag with overflow set or absolute position.
The parent must have set fixed height except the <body>!
new 13.0 API method void

SetMaxHeight

(int value)
Sets MaxHeight to the value. Call Update(); after the change.
upd 6.0 <Cfg> bool

MaxWidth

If set to 1, updates width of main tag to fill the whole parent tag or body. It does not modify grid width, see ConstWidth.
It cannot be used when ResizingMain is set to 2 or 3 (horizontal resizing).
Now it just sets width of main tag to 100%.
The main tag should not have set any padding, border or margin, if required, set them to some parent tag.
<Cfg> int

MinTagHeight

Minimal height of main tag in pixels. This value is used when main tag is shrunk because of resizing by user or when applying MaxHeight attribute.
It is also used when main tag has set percentage height in style, but in this case it does not restore the percentage height when tag can be higher!
<Cfg> int

MinTagWidth

Minimal width of main tag in pixels. This value is used when main tag is shrunk because of resizing by user or when applying MaxWidth attribute.
It is also used when main tag has set percentage width in style.
chg 6.0 <Cfg> int

MaxTagHeight

Maximal height of main tag in pixels. This value is used when main tag is enlarged because of resizing by user or when applying MaxHeight attribute.
It is also used when main tag has set percentage height in style, but in this case it does not restore the percentage height when tag can be higher!
<Cfg> int

MaxTagWidth

Maximal width of main tag in pixels. This value is used when main tag is enlarged because of resizing by user or when applying MaxWidth attribute.
It is also used when main tag has set percentage width in style.

Update size according to the content

To shrink or enlarge the main tag according to grid content. set <Cfg NoVScroll='1' NoHScroll='1'/>.
To shrink or enlarge the main tag up to specific size only, set <Cfg MaxVScroll='...' MaxHScroll='...'/>, when grid content reaches this maximum, it shows its scrollbars.
To use your own scrolling behavior set <Cfg NoScroll='1'/>. There will be used scrollbars of parent tag with overflow set or window scrollbars.
upd 13.0 <Cfg> bool

NoVScroll

If set to 1, the TreeGrid always resizes vertically the main tag to show the entire grid.
When set, a user cannot resize the main tag vertically (ResizingMain ignores 1 or 3). It disables all RelHeight rows and ConstHeight.
Since 13.0 it works also with Paging, ChildParts and AutoPages.
upd 13.0 <Cfg> bool

NoHScroll

If set to 1, the TreeGrid always resizes horizontally the main tag to show the entire grid.
When set, a user cannot resize the main tag horizontally (ResizingMain ignores 2 or 3). It also disables all RelWidth columns and ConstWidth.
Since 13.0 it works also with ColPaging, GanttPaging and AutoColPages.
renamed 6.0 <Cfg> int

MaxVScroll

If set, resizes vertically the main tag tag to show the entire grid, but only up to the specified size in pixels. Grid behaves in this way:
When grid content is higher than this maximum, it sets the main tag height to the maximum and shows vertical scrollbar.
When grid content is smaller than this maximum, it shrinks the main tag to accommodate the grid only.
When set, it disables all RelHeight rows and ConstHeight.
new 6.0 <Cfg> int

MaxHScroll

If set, resizes horizontally the main tag to show the entire grid, but only up to the specified size in pixels. Grid behaves in this way:
When grid content is wider than this maximum, it sets the main tag width to the maximum and shows horizontal scrollbar.
When grid content is smaller than this maximum, it shrinks the main tag to accommodate the grid only.
When set, it disables all RelWidth columns and ConstWidth.
chg 7.0 API event void

OnResizeMain

(TGrid grid)
Since 7.0 the event is called also when resizing main tag by NoVScroll, NoHScroll, MaxVScroll and MaxHScroll. But not by NoScroll.
new 13.0 <Cfg> int

LimitScroll

[0]
When set, it sets NoVScroll and / or NoHScroll, if there is not enough room to display the grid readable. Bit array.
It is applied after ShrinkStyleSize.
1. bit &1 - Horizontal limit. Sets NoHScroll if the width of any column section is lower than the MinLeftWidth / MinMidWidth / MinRightWidth value.
2. bit &2 - Vertical limit. Sets NoVScroll if the height of visible variable rows count is smaller than MinBodyRows value.
3. bit &4 - Space width limit. Sets NoHScroll if any Space row does not display all its cells fully because too small grid width. The columns must be wider than all the space rows or ConstWidth or RelWidth column must be defined.
4. bit &8 - Reserved
5. bit &16 - If set, sets always both NoVScroll and NoHScroll.
Don't set it, if the NoVScroll or NoHScroll is set in another way!
new 13.0 API event int

OnLimitScroll

(TGrid grid, bool clear, bool nohscroll, bool novscroll)
Called before changed NoHScroll or NoVScroll due LimitScroll.
Return true to cancel the change. Return -1 to cancel the change and to not continue (in case the handler calls Update())
clear is set before NoHScroll / NoVScroll is set to false, clear is false before NoHScroll / NoVScroll is set to true.
The handler should not change the grid layout (e.g. show / hide row / column), such action do in setTimeout.
new 14.0 API method void

UpdateLimitScroll

(bool noupdate = 0)
Recalculates scroll limits and if required changes NoVScroll / NoHScroll.
Call it if the scroll limits are not updated automatically, e.g. if some page content changes its height and makes more or less room for grid.
If set noupdate = 1 it does not update the limits immediately, but later in timeout.
new 13.0 <Cfg> string

ScrollParent

id of the tag that scrolls grid instead of Main tag if set NoVScroll or NoHScroll.
For API it is a HTML tag object.
If not set, the whole document body is used.
<Cfg> bool

NoScroll

If set to 1, does not use TreeGrid’s scrollbars. The main tag is always resized to accommodate exactly the grid content.
In this case are used scrollbars of parent tag with overflow set or browser window.
In this case the main tag has automatically set overflow:visible and it must not be changed.
new 15.0 <Actions>

ChangeWinScroll

Attached to OnClickButtonWinScroll event
Switches between grid scroll (NoVScroll = 0, NoHScroll = 0) and window scroll (NoVScroll = 1, NoHScroll = 1).
new 15.0 API method bool

CanChangeWinScroll

( )
Returns true if it is possible to switch to window scroll by setting NoVScroll = 1, NoHScroll = 1.
new 15.0 API event bool

OnChangeWinScroll

(TGrid grid, bool clear)
Called before changed NoHScroll or NoVScroll by action ChangeWinScroll.
Return true to cancel the change.
clear is set before NoHScroll / NoVScroll is set to false, clear is false before NoHScroll / NoVScroll is set to true.
The handler should not change the grid layout (e.g. show / hide row / column), such action do in setTimeout.

Let a user to control the grid size

To let a user to resize main tag, set <Cfg ResizingMain='3'/>.
The user will resize the main tag, but not the grid content, to update grid content to fill the resized main tag set <Cfg ConstHeight='1' ConstWidth='1'/> or use some row with <I RelHeight='1'/> and column with <C RelWidth='1'/> .
You can set minimal permitted size of the main tag by <Cfg MinTagHeight='...' MinTagWidth='...'/> and maximal size by <Cfg MaxTagHeight='...' MaxTagWidth='...'/>.
upd 12.0 <Cfg> int

ResizingMain

main tag extents are saved to cookies, avoid it by <Cfg ResizingMainLap='1'/>
If set, main tag can be resized by user by dragging by bottom right edge of toolbar.
= 1 resizes vertically (height), 2 resizes horizontally (width), 3 resizes both sides.
If added 4, it does not hide the table while resizing.
(new 12.0) If added 8 or 12, it hides content also of other grids on page (8 all grids with MaxHeight set, 12 all grids).
(new 12.0) If added 16, it does not use LeftWidth / MidWidth / RightWidth when calculating minimal permitted width.
Extents of main tag are saved to cookies, to suppress it set ResizingMainLap='1'.
Resizing height cannot be done when set MaxHeight or NoVScroll. If set MaxVScroll, the main tag can be resized up to the grid content height.
Resizing width cannot be done when set MaxWidth, NoHScroll. If set MaxHScroll, the main tag can be resized up to the grid content width.
If resizing main tag is permitted, it is also resized automatically if it cannot accommodate the grid (the fixed sections of grid are too high or wide), to preserve displaying "Too small extents" message.
<Actions>

GridResize

Attached to OnDragResize and OnDragButtonResize, can be attached to OnDrag... events only
Starts resizing main tag by mouse.
<Actions>

GridResizeDefault

Attached to OnDblClickResize and OnDblClickButtonResize
Resizes main tag back to its original size after it was resized by a user.
API event void

OnResizeMain

(TGrid grid)
Called after main tag is resized by a user.
Since 7.0 the event is called also when resizing main tag by NoVScroll, NoHScroo, MaxVScroll and MaxHScroll. But not by NoScroll.

Widths of individual sections

TreeGrid supports scrolling of all three column sections (left, mid, right).
By default is scrolled only the middle (variable) section. Only if the grid cannot accommodate the other section, they are scrolled too.

The algorithm to show scrollbars for sections
1) If there is enough space to show all columns in their original widths, no scrollbar is shown. The widths of sections cannot be resized by a user.
2) If there is no room to show all columns, the sections are resized to their Width (LeftWidth/MidWidth/RightWidth).
If section has not set its width, it is not resized.
The sections are resized in the order SectionShrinkOrder, by default: Mid, Right, Left. So first is resized the middle section to its Width, if there is still no room it continues with right and next width the left one.
3) If there is still no room, the sections without Width are resized to their MinWidth (MinLeftWidth/MinMidWidth/MinRightWidth). Still in the same order.
4) If there is still no room, the sections with Width are resized to their MinWidth. Still in the same order.
5) If there is still no room and vertical pager is displayed, the pager is resized to its MinWidth. Since 11.0 the order of points 4 and 5 was changed.
6) If there is still no room, all sections are resized to their border width only (few pixels). Still in the same order.
7) If there is still no room, the "Too small grid size" message is shown and the grid is disabled.
Synchronize sections widths among more grids
a) If the grids have the same columns, do in all the affected grids:
Set <Cfg Sync="sec,cols,style"/>, optionally add "horz" to synchronize horizontal scroll, optionally add "zoom" to synchronize Gantt zoom.
Set the same values for <Cfg> attributes LeftWidth, MidWidth, RightWidth, MinLeftWidth, MinMidWidth, MinRightWidth, SectionShrinkOrder in all the grids.
Ensure the TreeGrid main tags have the same widths.
b) If the grids have different columns, do in all the affected grids:
Set <Cfg Sync="sec,style"/>, optionally add "horz" to synchronize horizontal scroll, optionally add "zoom" to synchronize Gantt zoom.
In every column section define one column as <C ConstWidth='1' RelWidthType='1'/>
Set the same values for <Cfg> attributes LeftWidth, MidWidth, RightWidth, MinLeftWidth, MinMidWidth, MinRightWidth, SectionShrinkOrder in all the grids.
Optionally set <Cfg LeftCanResize='4' RightCanResize='4'/> to resize also sections without scrollbars.
Ensure the TreeGrid main tags have the same widths.

3 - (new 9.2) Always when there is scrollbar in any section (left, middle, right). The left section width can be also changed if the middle section cannot be resized enough.
4 - (new 11.0) Even if there is no scrollbar and the sections have defined some column with RelWidth='1' or ConstWidth='1' and RelWidthType='1'.
The resizing changes RightWidth and MidWidth, (for 3 and 4 also LeftWidth).
The section can be caught and dragged by the place between right and middle scrollbar.
Sections cannot be resized below their Min...Width and above sum of their column widths.

Starts resizing column section by mouse.
By default is the action attached to OnDragHScrollLeft (left/middle scrollbar), OnDragHScrollRight (middle/right scrollbar).
new 6.5 API event void

OnSectionResize

(TGrid grid, int section, int widthchange)

Other scrolling attributes and API

new 7.0 <Cfg> int

CustomScroll

[0]
Type of scrollbars used in grid. It affects only the base vertical and horizontal scrollbars scrolling the whole grid section.
0 - standard browser scrollbar
1 - normal style scrollbar, 2 - big style scrollbar, 3 - small (simple) style scrollbar
4 - hidden (no) scrollbars, you can assign action Scroll to some drag event to scroll on drag. Scrolling is also possible by mouse wheel or by focus by arrow keys.
Custom scrollbars are not suitable for very large grids with many rows or columns, because the custom scrollbar step is too big for them.
new 7.0 <Cfg> int

TouchScroll

[1]
Type of scrollbars used in grid only on touchpad, e.g. on iPad. It affects only the base vertical and horizontal scrollbars scrolling the whole grid section.
It changes value of CustomScroll for tablets only.
0 - standard browser scrollbar
1 - normal style scrollbar, 2 - big style scrollbar, 3 - small (simple) style scrollbar
4 - hidden (no) scrollbars, you can assign action Scroll to some drag event to scroll on drag. Scrolling is also possible by mouse wheel or by focus by arrow keys.
new 7.0 upd 12.0 <Cfg> int

ScrollAction

[ ]
For tablets only.
Since 12.0 it is deprecated to control the tablets by one finger.
Predefines behavior of scrolling action (DragXRow and DragXGrid). When set, users can change this setting also via configuration menu.
By default it is empty to not modify the <Actions> settings.
0 - No scroll action, scrolling can be done only by scrollbars.
1 - Scroll by one finger, it replaces default iPad screen move.
2 - Scroll by two fingers, it replaces default iPad zooming, it is default grid behavior.
3 - Scroll by three fingers, it replaces grid row dragging.
new 12.0 upd 15.0 <Cfg> int

MomentumScroll

[7]
For tablets only.
If set, uses momentum scrolling on WebKit tablets by -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
If set, it always disables the ScrollAuto action and uses default tablet scrolling.
The momentum scrolling scrolls also when finger is out the tablet, until it is stopped by next touch.
Since 12.1 if set to 2 disables the momentum scrolling if some TreeGrid dialog is opened to avoid Safari bug that scrolls the grid behind the dialog. The value 2 can slightly slow down the dialog display and old iOS it blinks.
Since 12.1 if set to 3 it behaves like 2 on Safari 8+ and like 1 on older Safari.
Since 15.0 if set to 5 it synchronizes other row and columns sections during scrolling. 6 and 7 behave like 2 and 3.
Since 15.0 default value changed to 7.
new 7.0 <Cfg> int

CustomHScroll

[0]
Presets different value of CustomScroll for horizontal scrollbar(s).
<Cfg> bool

HideHScroll

If set to 1, the horizontal scrollbar is not visible and it cannot be used by a user to scroll the grid horizontally.
All other scrolling ways (by focus, by API) are still possible like the scrollbar is visible.
It can be used to hide the scrollbar and provide custom way for horizontal scrolling, e.g. some buttons.
Since 7.0 it sets CustomHScroll = '4'
new 12.0 <Cfg> bool

ShowHScroll

If set to 1, the horizontal scrollbar(s) is still visible even if it is not required.
<Cfg> bool

ShowVScroll

If set to 1, the vertical scrollbar is still visible even if it is not required.
It automatically sets <Cfg ConstHeight='1'/> if not set and no RelHeight row exists. Ignored when set NoVScroll or MaxVScroll.
Set it to 1 if there are many columns with RelWidth and showing / hiding vertical scrollbar slows down the grid, especially for tree.
new 15.0 <Cfg> int

ShortVScroll

[0]
If not set, vertical scrollbar is shown in the whole grid height, from Head section to the Foot section.
If set, vertical scrollbar is shown only next to the Body section.
If set to 2, the space above the vertical scrollbar next to the top Header has the same background as the Header in the current style.
new 7.0 <Cfg> int

RoundVScroll

If set, to this will be all vertical scroll steps rounded.
For example set it to 18, if your rows are 18 pixels high (default in many styles) to scroll always to the whole rows.
chg 7.0 <Cfg> bool

NoScrollAfterExpand

[1]
If set to 0, TreeGrid scrolls down if the children are not shown all.
If set to 1, when expanding row, does not scroll into view the row's children - the icon always stays under mouse cursor.
Since 7.0 the default value is 1.
new 13.2 <Cfg> int

WheelFixed

[5]
If mouse wheel scrolls the grid body if mouse is above other grid section.
0 - never, 1 - also if above Head or Foot section, 2 - also if above inner space row (Space=1,2), 3 - also if above other space row (Space=0,3,4), 4 - also if above outer space row (Space=-1,5), 5 - also if above side pager, 6 - also if above outside space (with Tag set).
new 10.0 <Cfg> bool

Scroll

Attached to OnRightDragRow, can be attached only to OnDrag... events
Starts scrolling grid section (columns or rows) under mouse cursor. Scrolls in both directions.
See also CustomScroll and TouchScroll attributes.
Since 13.0 if set NoHScroll or NoVScroll it scrolls the whole window or ScrollParent.
new 13.0 <Actions>

ScrollHorz

Not attached to any event, can be attached only to OnDrag... events
Starts scrolling grid columns section under mouse cursor. Scrolls horizontally.
If set NoHScroll it scrolls the whole window or ScrollParent.

ScrollVert

Not attached to any event, can be attached only to OnDrag... events
Starts scrolling grid variable rows section if it is under mouse cursor. Scrolls vertically.
If set NoVScroll it scrolls the whole window or ScrollParent.
new 10.0 chg 12.0 <Actions>

ScrollAuto

Not attached to any event, can be attached only to OnDrag... events
Starts scrolling grid section (columns or rows) under mouse cursor. Scrolls in both directions.
If the scrolling shift is too small, it does nothing and permits default action.
Use with NoVScroll or NoHScroll to have default scroll in one direction and TreeGrid scroll in the other direction.
For example on iPad set <Cfg NoVScroll='1'/> <Actions OnDrag1Row="ScrollAuto"/> to use default vertical scroll for whole page and horizontal scroll for individual column sections (e.g. Gantt chart).
Since 12.0 it is not attached to any event by default to use default scrolling behavior. You can attach it to OnDrag1Row and OnDrag1Gantt events for behavior prior to 12.0.
It is disabled on tablets if set MomentumScroll (it is on by default).
new 10.0 <Actions>

ScrollTouch

Not attached to any event, can be attached only to OnDrag... events
The same action like ScrollAuto, but in Gantt it works only if no Gantt object is focused.
To avoid unwanted scroll when misses the Gantt object while trying to drag it.
Usually used with TouchClearFocused set to some short time.
