Show field list when pivot table empty in EJ2 TypeScript Pivotview control

8 Aug 20233 minutes to read

When there are no fields in a pivot table’s row, column, value, and filter axes, a field list can still be displayed. To do so, use the dataBound event and call the onShowFieldList method as shown below.

import { PivotView, IDataSet, FieldList } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview';
import { pivotData } from './datasource.ts';

PivotView.Inject(FieldList);
let pivotTableObj: PivotView = new PivotView({
    dataSourceSettings: {
        dataSource: pivotData as IDataSet[],
    },
    showFieldList: true,
    dataBound: (): void => {
        if (pivotTableObj && pivotTableObj.dataSourceSettings.values.length === 0) {
            (pivotTableObj.pivotFieldListModule.dialogRenderer as any).onShowFieldList();
        }
    },
    height: 350
});
pivotTableObj.appendTo('#PivotTable');
