@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
@Html.EJS().HeatMap("container").TitleSettings(ts => 
ts.Text("Sales Revenue per Employee (in 1000 US$)").TextStyle(ViewBag.textStyle)).XAxis(xAxis =>
xAxis.Labels(ViewBag.xLabels)).YAxis(yaxis =>
yaxis.Labels(ViewBag.yLabels)).CellSettings(cs =>
cs.Border(ViewBag.border)).DataSource(ViewBag.dataSource).Render()
public ActionResult Border()
{
    ViewBag.textStyle = new
     {
         size= "15px",
         fontWeight= "500",
         fontStyle= "Normal",
         fontFamily= "Segoe UI"
         };
         string[] xlabels = new string[12] { "Nancy", "Andrew", "Janet", "Margaret", "Steven", "Michael", "Robert", "Laura", "Anne", "Paul", "Karin", "Mario" };
         ViewBag.xLabels = xlabels;
         string[] yLabels = new string[6] { "Mon", "Tues", "Wed", "Thurs", "Fri", "Sat" };
         ViewBag.yLabels = yLabels;
         ViewBag.dataSource = GetDataSource();
         ViewBag.border = new { width = 1,radius = 4, color= "white" };
         return View();
}

 private int[,] GetDataSource()
 {
     int[,] data = new int[,]
            {
                {73, 39, 26, 39, 94, 0},
                {93, 58, 53, 38, 26, 68},
                {99, 28, 22, 4, 66, 90},
                {14, 26, 97, 69, 69, 3},

 }

Cell highlighting

Enable or disable the cell highlighting while hovering over the heat map cells by using the EnableCellHighlighting property.

NOTE

The cell highlighting only works in a SVG rendering mode.

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
@Html.EJS().HeatMap("container").TitleSettings(ts => 
ts.Text("Sales Revenue per Employee (in 1000 US$)").TextStyle(ViewBag.textStyle)).XAxis(xAxis =>
xAxis.Labels(ViewBag.xLabels)).YAxis(yaxis =>

         };
         string[] xlabels = new string[12] { "Nancy", "Andrew", "Janet", "Margaret", "Steven", "Michael", "Robert", "Laura", "Anne", "Paul", "Karin", "Mario" };
         ViewBag.xLabels = xlabels;
         string[] yLabels = new string[6] { "Mon", "Tues", "Wed", "Thurs", "Fri", "Sat" };
         ViewBag.yLabels = yLabels;
         ViewBag.dataSource = GetDataSource();
         return View();
}

 private int[,] GetDataSource()
 {
     int[,] data = new int[,]
            {
                {73, 39, 26, 39, 94, 0},
                {93, 58, 53, 38, 26, 68},

                {74, 33, 88, 23, 86, 59}
            };
            return data;
 }

Color gradient mode

The ColorGradientMode property can be used to set the minimum and maximum values for colors based on row and column. Three types of color gradient modes are available.

  • Table: The minimum and maximum value colors calculated for overall data.
  • Row: The minimum and maximum value colors calculated for each row of data.
  • Column: The minimum and maximum value colors calculated for each column of data.

NOTE

The default value of ColorGradientMode is Table.

            };
            return data;
 }

Template

Any HTML elements can be added as a template in the data labels by using the LabelTemplate property of CellSettings in the HeatMap.

The following examples show various data binding methods in the HeatMap using the LabelTemplate property.

Array binding

By including ${value} in the template content, the value from the data source for the corresponding cell can be displayed in the HeatMap cell as data label template content. Additionally, the x-axis and y-axis label values can be displayed by including ${xLabel} and ${yLabel} in the template content.

Table

The following example demonstrates how to add a data label template for array table binding.

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
@Html.EJS().HeatMap("container").TitleSettings(ts =>
    ts.Text("Commercial Aviation Accidents and Fatalities by year 2015 - 2017").TextStyle(ViewBag.textStyle)).XAxis(xAxis =>
        xAxis.Labels(ViewBag.xLabels)).YAxis(yaxis =>
            yaxis.Labels(ViewBag.yLabels)).LegendSettings(ls =>
                ls.Visible(true)).CellSettings(cs =>
                    cs.LabelTemplate("<div style='width:25px;height:20px;text-align:center;padding-top:2px;background-color:#5BBB9C; border: 1px solid #000000; border-radius:50%;font-weight:bold;'>${value}</div>")).DataSource("dataSource").Render()
}

            };
            string[] xlabels = new string[3] { "2015", "2016", "2017" };
            ViewBag.xLabels = xlabels;
            string[] yLabels = new string[6] { "Jan-Feb", "Mar-Apr", "May-Jun", "Jul-Aug", "Sep-Oct", "Nov-Dec" };
            ViewBag.yLabels = yLabels;
            return View();
