We are using Ignite UI Blazor, where can I find granular properties?
The large Datagrid demo makes it hard to figure out what code goes where?
I would like to freeze the header or even be able to limit the sort/filter items and I am unable to find details on it.
It appears the forums are not in heavy use and hard to find information, I have been using google to search for small examples and it takes a long time to use.
There seem to be items missing from your framework: drop-down list, notifications, tabs, dialogs, page layout and tabs, which are in use on your website. I would like to limit the third-party frameworks.
Thanks.
I updated the message to reflect more of my concerns, without the extra verbiage.
Hello Dean,
I will start by saying that our documentation for the IgbDataGrid can be found here: https://ko.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-blazor/blazor/components/grids/data-grid.
I am also unsure of which DataGrid example you are referring to specifically, but each of the samples in each of the topics in our online documentation linked above are available for download on our GitHub repository, here: https://github.com/igniteui/igniteui-blazor-examples/tree/master. Each of the data grid samples is its own, individually runnable application demonstrating the different features of the grid.
By the “document webpage that lists arguments and comes with examples,” I am under the impression that you are referring to an API documentation. If this is the case, we will be pushing a version of our documentation very soon that has links to an API webpage so that you can see all of the different properties / methods / events of the grid and all of the other controls in the Ignite UI for Blazor toolset.
Regarding the missing components from Ignite UI for Blazor, I would recommend that you take a look at the following “What’s New in 22.1” blog for our Ignite UI for Blazor toolset that was actually just released today: https://ko.infragistics.com/community/blogs/b/infragistics/posts/ignite-ui-for-blazor---what-s-new-in-22-1. The missing Drop-Down List, Notifications, Tabs and Page Layout has been remedied with this newest release, amongst other new features and controls.
Regarding the actual features that you had asked about in your original description, you mentioned wanting to freeze the header. I am under the impression that you are referring to column pinning/fixing in this case? If so, I would recommend taking a look at the following documentation, as this is built-in: https://ko.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-blazor/blazor/components/grids/data-grid-column-pinning.
You mentioned that the tabs were part of our website using a third-party framework. I am under the impression that you were referring to the dock manager component needing to use the Ignite UI for Web Components toolset? This is remedied with the new release, as we now have a Blazor-specific dock manager, albeit it is in a preview state for the moment.
You had also mentioned the ability to limit the sorted and filtered items. I am a little unsure what you mean by this. Can you please elaborate a bit on what you are looking to do with the filtered and sorted items?
Another thing that was mentioned was the need to use JavaScript to give the grid a “better look and feel,” but all of the appearance-related properties for the grid are exposed at the Razor component level? What reasons do you have that you feel that you are forced to use JavaScript in this case?
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns on this matter.
