Customize cell styles

The appearance of cells can be customized by using the queryCellInfo event.
The queryCellInfo event triggers for every cell. In that event handler, you can get QueryCellInfoEventArgs that contains the details of the cell.

index.ts
index.html
import { TreeGrid, QueryCellInfoEventArgs } from '@syncfusion/ej2-treegrid';
import { sampleData } from './datasource.ts';

let treeGridObj: TreeGrid = new TreeGrid({
    dataSource: sampleData,
    childMapping: 'subtasks',
    height: 300,
    queryCellInfo: customiseCell,
    treeColumnIndex: 1,
    columns: [
        { field: 'taskID', headerText: 'Task ID', width: 90, textAlign: 'Right' },
        { field: 'taskName', headerText: 'Task Name', width: 180 },
        { field: 'duration', headerText: 'Duration', width: 80, textAlign: 'Right' },
        { field: 'progress', headerText: 'Progress', width: 80, textAlign: 'Right' }
    ]
});

treeGridObj.appendTo('#TreeGrid');

function customiseCell(args: QueryCellInfoEventArgs) {
    if (args.column.field === 'progress' && +args.cell.innerHTML > 90 && +args.cell.innerHTML <= 100){
        args.cell.setAttribute('style', 'background-color:#336c12;color:white;');
    } else if (+args.cell.innerHTML > 20 && args.column.field === 'progress') {
        args.cell.setAttribute('style', 'background-color:#7b2b1d;color:white;');
    }
}

Custom attributes

You can customize the treegrid cells by adding a CSS class to the customAttribute property of the column.

.e-attr {
    background: '#d7f0f4';
}

{
    field: 'taskID', headerText: 'Task ID', width: 90, customAttributes: {class: "e-attr"}, textAlign: 'Right'
}

In the below example, we have customized the cells of TaskID and StartDate columns.

index.ts
index.html
import { TreeGrid } from '@syncfusion/ej2-treegrid';
import { sampleData } from './datasource.ts';

let treeGridObj: TreeGrid = new TreeGrid({
    dataSource: sampleData,
    childMapping: 'subtasks',
    height: 300,
    treeColumnIndex: 1,
    columns: [
        { field: 'taskID', headerText: 'Task ID', width: 90, customAttributes: {class: "e-attr"}, textAlign: 'Right' },
        { field: 'taskName', headerText: 'Task Name', width: 160 },
        {
            field: 'startDate', headerText: 'Start Date', width: 90, customAttributes: {class: "e-attr"}, textAlign: 'Right', type: 'date',format: 'yMd'
        },
        { field: 'duration', headerText: 'Duration', width: 80, textAlign: 'Right' }
    ]
});

treeGridObj.appendTo('#TreeGrid');
