Configure data grid options on editing mode in Angular Pivotview component

27 Apr 20244 minutes to read

You can access the data grid options such as sort, group, filter on editing mode using the beginDrillThrough event in the pivot table. The event occurs in every value cell on double click and provides the data grid information before display the drill through grid pop-up.

Grid features are segregated into individual feature-wise modules. For example, to use sorting feature, you should inject Sort using the Grid.Inject(Sort) section.
