The column displays information from a bound data source, and you can edit the values of column to update the task details through TreeGrid. The operations such as sorting, filtering, and searching can be performed based on column definitions. To display a Gantt column, the Field
property should be mapped from the data source to the column.
If the column
Field
is not specified in the data source, the column values will be empty.
The TreeColumnIndex
property is used to define the expander column in the Gantt control to expand and collapse the child rows.
Using the Columns
property, you can define the columns in Gantt. If the columns are not defined, then the default columns will be rendered based on the mapped data source fields in the TaskFields
property. Refer to the following code example for defining the columns in Gantt along with their widths.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts =>

To format the cell values based on a specific culture, use the Columns.Format
property. The Gantt control uses the Internationalization
library to format number
and date
values.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress(
"Progress").Child("SubTasks")).Columns(col =>
{
col.Field("TaskId").Width(150).Add();
col.Field("Progress").Format("C").Width(150).Add();
}).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
By default, the
number
anddate
values are formatted inen-US
culture.
The number or integer values can be formatted using the following format strings.
Format | Description |
---|---|
N | Denotes numeric type. |
C | Denotes currency type. |
P | Denotes percentage type |
You can format date values either using the built-in date format string or a custom format string.
For the built-in date format, you can specify the Columns.Format
property as string (example: yMd
).
You can also use the custom format string to format the date values. Some of the custom formats and the formatted date values are given in the following table.
Format | Formatted value |
---|---|
{ type:‘date’, format:‘dd/MM/yyyy’ } | 04/07/2019 |
{ type:‘date’, format:‘dd.MM.yyyy’ } | 04.07.2019 |
{ type:‘date’, skeleton:‘short’ } | 7/4/19 |
{ type: ‘dateTime’, format: ‘dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm a’ } | 04/07/2019 12:00 AM |

The column reordering can be done by dragging a column header from one index to another index within the TreeGrid. To enable reordering, set the AllowReordering
property to true.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").AllowReordering(
true).TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration(
"Duration").Progress("Progress").Child("SubTasks")).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
You can disable the reordering of a particular column by setting the
Columns.AllowReordering
property tofalse
.
During the reorder action, the gantt component triggers the below three events.
columnDragStart
event triggers when column header element drag (move) starts.columnDrag
event triggers when column header element is dragged (moved) continuously.columnDrop
event triggers when a column header element is dropped on the target column.@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(
"TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child("SubTasks")).EditSettings(es =>
es.AllowEditing(true)).AllowReordering(true)
.ColumnDragStart("columnDragStart").ColumnDrag("columnDrag").ColumnDrop("columnDrop")
.Render()
<script>
function columnDragStart() {
alert('columnDragStart event is triggered')
}
function columnDrag() {
alert('columnDrag event is triggered')
}
function columnDrop() {
alert('columnDrop event is triggered')
}
</script>
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
Multiple columns can be reordered at a time by using the reorderColumns
method.
@Html.EJS().Button("reorderMultipleCols").Content("Reorder Task ID and Task Name to Last").Render()
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").AllowReordering(
true).TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress(
"Progress").Child("SubTasks")).Render()
<script>
document.getElementById("reorderMultipleCols").addEventListener('click', () => {
var ganttObj = document.getElementById("Gantt").ej2_instances[0];
ganttObj.reorderColumns(['TaskId', 'TaskName'], 'Progress');
});
</script>
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
The column width can be resized by clicking and dragging the right edge of the column header. While dragging, the width of the column will be resized immediately. Each column can be auto resized by double-clicking the right edge of the column header to fit the width of that column based on the widest cell content. To resize the column, set the AllowResizing
property to true. The following code example shows how to enable the column resize feature in the Gantt control.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").AllowResizing(true).TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child(
"SubTasks")).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
You can disable resizing for a particular column by setting the
Columns.AllowResizing
tofalse
.
The column resizing can be restricted between minimum and maximum widths by defining the Columns->MinWidth
and Columns->MaxWidth
properties.
In the following example, the minimum and maximum widths are defined for the Duration
, and Task Name
columns.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").AllowResizing(true).TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress"
).Child("SubTasks")).Columns(col =>
{
col.Field("TaskId").Width(50).Add();
col.Field("TaskName").Width(200).MinWidth(150).MaxWidth(250).Add();
col.Field("StartDate").Add();
col.Field("Duration").Width(100).MinWidth(50).MaxWidth(200).Add();
col.Field("Progress").Add();
}).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
A column template is used to customize the column’s look. The following code example explains how to define the custom template in Gantt using the Template
property.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child(

IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.projectResources).Columns(col =>
{
col.Field("TaskId").HeaderText("Task ID").Width(250).Add();
col.Field("TaskName").HeaderText("Task Name").Width(250).Add();
col.Field("ResourceId").HeaderText("Resources").Template("#columnTemplate").Add();
col.Field("StartDate").Add();
col.Field("Duration").Add();
col.Field("Progress").Add();
}).Render()

.
During the resizing action, the gantt component triggers the below two events.
columnMenuOpen
event triggers before the column menu opens.columnMenuClick
event triggers when the user clicks the column menu of the gantt.@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(

Custom column menu items can be added by defining the columnMenuItems
.
Actions for this customized items can be defined in the columnMenuClick
event.
@{
List<object> columnMenuitems = new List<object>();
columnMenuitems.Add(new { text = "Clear Sorting", id = "ganttclearsorting" });
}
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(

Sometimes, you have a scenario that to hide an item from column menu for particular columns. In that case, you need to define the columnMenuOpenEventArgs.hide
as true in the columnMenuOpen
event.
The following sample, Filter item was hidden in column menu when opens for the Task Name column.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(
"TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child("SubTasks")).EditSettings(es =>

.AllowFiltering(true).AllowSorting(true).ShowColumnMenu(true).ColumnMenuOpen("columnMenuOpen")
.Render()
<script>
function columnMenuOpen(args) {
for (let item of args.items) {
if (item.text === 'Filter' && args.column.field === 'TaskName') {
item.hide = true;
} else {
item.hide = false;
}
}
}
</script>
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();

The tree/expander column is a column in the Gantt control, that has icons to expand or collapse the parent records. You can define the tree column index in the Gantt control by using the TreeColumnIndex
property and the default value of this property is 0
. The following code example shows how to use this property.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TreeColumnIndex(2).TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress(
"Progress").Child("SubTasks")).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}
You can show or hide gantt columns dynamically using external buttons by invoking the showColumn
or hideColumn
method. The Progress column is hidden and shown on button clicking.

Column type can be specified using the columns.type
property. It specifies the type of data the column binds.
If the format
is defined for a column, the column uses type
to select the appropriate format option number or date.
Gantt column supports the following types:
date-time
If the
type
is not defined, it will be determined from the first record of thedataSource
. In case if the first record of thedataSource
is null/blank value for a column then it is necessary to define thetype
for that column.
The gantt has option to span the adjacent cells. You need to define the colSpan
attribute to span cells in the QueryCellInfo
event.
In the following demo, Work 1 cells have been spanned.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(
"TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child("SubTasks"))
.GridLines(Syncfusion.EJ2.Gantt.GridLine.Both)
.QueryCellInfo("QueryCellEvent")
.Columns(col =>
{
col.Field("TaskId").Add();
col.Field("TaskName").HeaderText("Task Name").Width(180).Add();
col.Field("work1").HeaderText("Work 1").Width(180).Add();
col.Field("work2").HeaderText("Work 2").Width(180).Add();
col.Field("StartDate").HeaderText("StartDate").Width(160).Add();
col.Field("Duration").Width(100).Add();
col.Field("Progress").Width(100).Add();
})
.Render()
