Scrolling in ASP.NET MVC Grid control

22 Jul 2021 / 1 minute to read

The scrollbar will be displayed in the grid when content exceeds the element Width or Height. The vertical and horizontal scrollbars will be displayed based on the following criteria:

  • The vertical scrollbar appears when the total height of rows present in the grid exceeds its element height.
  • The horizontal scrollbar appears when the sum of columns width exceeds the grid element width.
  • The Height and Width are used to set the grid height and width, respectively.

The default value for Height and Width is auto.

Set width and height

To specify the Width and Height of the scroller in the pixel, set the pixel value to a number.

@Html.EJS().Grid("Grid").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.datasource).Height("400").Width("auto").Columns(col =>
{
  col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("Order ID").Width("120").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
  col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("Customer Name").Width("150").Add();
  col.Field("OrderDate").HeaderText("Order Date").Width("130").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
  col.Field("Freight").HeaderText("Freight").Width("120").Format("C2").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
  col.Field("ShippedDate").HeaderText("Shipped Date").Width("140").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
  col.Field("ShipName").HeaderText("Ship Name").Width("150").Add();
  col.Field("ShipAddress").HeaderText("Ship Address").Width("170").Add();
  col.Field("ShipCity").HeaderText("Ship City").Width("170").Add();
  col.Field("ShipCountry").HeaderText("Ship Country").Width("150").Add();

}).Render()

public IActionResult Index()
 {
   var orders = OrderDetails.GetAllRecords();
   ViewBag.datasource = orders;            
   return View();
 }

Responsive with parent container

Specify the Width and Height as 100% to make the grid element fill its parent container. Setting the Height to 100% requires the grid parent element to have explicit height.

  col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("Customer Name").Width("150").Add();
  col.Field("OrderDate").HeaderText("Order Date").Width("130").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();

 }

Scroll to selected row

You can scroll the grid content to the selected row position by using the RowSelected event.

@Html.EJS().NumericTextBox("numeric").Placeholder("Enter index to select a row").Change("onChange").Width("200").Render()

@Html.EJS().Grid("Grid").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.datasource).Height("400").Width("auto").Columns(col =>
{
   col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("Order ID").Width("120").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
   col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("Customer Name").Width("150").Add();
   col.Field("OrderDate").HeaderText("Order Date").Width("130").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
   col.Field("Freight").HeaderText("Freight").Width("120").Format("C2").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
   col.Field("ShippedDate").HeaderText("Shipped Date").Width("140").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
   col.Field("ShipName").HeaderText("Ship Name").Width("150").Add();
   col.Field("ShipAddress").HeaderText("Ship Address").Width("170").Add();
   col.Field("ShipCity").HeaderText("Ship City").Width("170").Add();
   col.Field("ShipCountry").HeaderText("Ship Country").Width("150").Add();

}).RowSelected("rowSelected").Render()

<script>
    function onChange(args) {
        var gridObj = document.getElementById("Grid").ej2_instances[0];
        gridObj.selectRow(parseInt(this.getText(), 10));
    }

    function rowSelected(args) {
        var rowHeight = this.getRows()[this.getSelectedRowIndexes()[0]].scrollHeight;
        this.getContent().children[0].scrollTop = rowHeight * this.getSelectedRowIndexes()[0];
    }
