Conditional cell formatting

TreeGrid cells in the exported PDF can be customized or formatted using pdfQueryCellInfo event. In this event, we can format the treegrid cells of exported PDF document based on the column cell value.

In the below sample, we have set the background color for Duration column in the exported document by args.cell and backgroundColor property.

index.js
index.html
ej.treegrid.TreeGrid.Inject(ej.treegrid.Page, ej.treegrid.PdfExport, ej.treegrid.Toolbar);

var treeGridObj = new ej.treegrid.TreeGrid({
    dataSource: sampleData,
    childMapping: 'subtasks',
    allowPdfExport: true,
    allowPaging: true,
    height: 220,
    pageSettings: {pageSize: 7},
    toolbar: ['PdfExport'],
    treeColumnIndex: 1,
    columns: [
        { field: 'taskID', headerText: 'Task ID', width: 90, textAlign: 'Right' },
        { field: 'taskName', headerText: 'Task Name', width: 180, textAlign: 'Left' },
        {
            field: 'startDate', headerText: 'Start Date', width: 90, textAlign: 'Right', type: 'date', format: 'yMd'
        },
        { field: 'duration', headerText: 'Duration', width: 80, textAlign: 'Right' }
    ]
});

treeGridObj.appendTo('#TreeGrid');
treeGridObj.toolbarClick = function(args) {
    if (args['item'].id === 'TreeGrid_gridcontrol_pdfexport') {
        treeGridObj.pdfExport();
    }
}
treeGridObj.pdfQueryCellInfo = function(args) {
    if(args.column.field == 'duration'){
        if(args.value === 0 || args.value === "") {
            args.style = {backgroundColor: '#336c12'};
        }
        else if(args.value < 3) {
             args.style = {backgroundColor: '#7b2b1d'};
        }
    }
}

treeGridObj.queryCellInfo = function(args) {
    if (args.data['duration'] == 0 && args.column.field === 'duration' ) {
        args.cell.style.background= '#336c12';
    } else if (args.data['duration'] < 3 && args.column.field === 'duration') {
        args.cell.style.background= '#7b2b1d';
    }
}

Theme

PDF export provides an option to include theme for exported PDF document.

To apply theme in exported PDF, define the theme in exportProperties .

index.js
index.html
ej.treegrid.TreeGrid.Inject(ej.treegrid.Page, ej.treegrid.PdfExport, ej.treegrid.Toolbar);

var treeGridObj = new ej.treegrid.TreeGrid({
    dataSource: sampleData,
    childMapping: 'subtasks',
    allowPdfExport: true,
    allowPaging: true,
    height: 220,
    pageSettings: {pageSize: 7},
    toolbar: ['PdfExport'],
    treeColumnIndex: 1,
    columns: [
        { field: 'taskID', headerText: 'Task ID', width: 90, textAlign: 'Right' },
        { field: 'taskName', headerText: 'Task Name', width: 180, textAlign: 'Left' },
        {
            field: 'startDate', headerText: 'Start Date', width: 90, textAlign: 'Right', type: 'date', format: 'yMd'
        },
        { field: 'duration', headerText: 'Duration', width: 80, textAlign: 'Right' }
    ]
});

treeGridObj.appendTo('#TreeGrid');
treeGridObj.toolbarClick = function(args) {
    if (args['item'].id === 'TreeGrid_gridcontrol_pdfexport') {
        var exportProperties = {
            theme: {
                header: {
                    fontColor: '#64FA50', fontName: 'Calibri', fontSize: 17, bold: true, borders: { color: '#64FA50', lineStyle: 'Thin' }
                },
                record: {
                    fontColor: '#64FA50', fontName: 'Calibri', fontSize: 17, bold: true
                }
            }
        };
        treeGridObj.pdfExport(exportProperties);
    }
}
