Moving panels in Angular Dashboard layout component
28 Dec 20245 minutes to read
In addition to drag and drop, it is possible to move panels in the Dashboard Layout programmatically. This can be achieved using movePanel method. The method is invoked as follows,
movePanel(id, row, col)
Where,
- id - ID of the panel to be moved.
- row - New row position for the panel.
- col - New column position for the panel.
Each time a panel’s position is changed (either programmatically or through UI interaction), the Dashboard Layout’s change event is triggered.
The following sample demonstrates how to move a panel programmatically to a new position in the Dashboard Layout’s created event.
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { DashboardLayoutModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-layouts'
import { Component, ViewEncapsulation, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { DashboardLayoutComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-layouts';
@Component({
imports: [DashboardLayoutModule],
standalone: true,
selector: 'app-root',
template: `
<div class="control-section">
<ejs-dashboardlayout id='defaultLayout' #defaultLayout [columns]='columns' [cellSpacing]='cellSpacing' [panels]='panels'
(created)="onCreated($this)" (change)="onChange($this)">
</ejs-dashboardlayout>
</div>`,
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild('defaultLayout') dashboardLayout?: DashboardLayoutComponent;
public cellSpacing: number[] = [10, 10];
public columns: number = 5;
public panels: any = [
{ 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 0, 'col': 0, content: '<div class="content">0</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 3, 'sizeY': 2, 'row': 0, 'col': 1, content: '<div class="content">1</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 3, 'row': 0, 'col': 4, content: '<div class="content">2</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 1, 'col': 0, content: '<div class="content">3</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 2, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 0, content: '<div class="content">4</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 2, content: '<div class="content">5</div>' },
{ 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 3, content: '<div class="content">6</div>' },
];
$this: any;
//Dashboard Layout's created event function
onCreated(args: any) {
// movePanel("id", row, col)
this.dashboardLayout?.movePanel("layout_0", 1, 0);
}
//Dashboard Layout's change event function
onChange(args: any) {
console.log("Change event triggered");
}
