Setting panel headers in React Dashboard Layout component
7 Oct 202524 minutes to read
The dashboard Layout component is primarily used to represent data for monitoring or managing processes. These data or any HTML template can be placed as the content of a panel using the content property. Also, a word or phrase that summarizes the panel’s content can be added as the header on the top of each panel using the header property of the panel.
The following example demonstrates how to add content for each panel using the header and content properties of the panels.
import { DashboardLayoutComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-layouts';
import * as React from 'react';
function App() {
const cellSpacing = [10, 10];
let panels = [
{ 'id': 'Panel0', 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 0, 'col': 0, header: '<div>Panel 0</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel1', 'sizeX': 3, 'sizeY': 2, 'row': 0, 'col': 1, header: '<div>Panel 1</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel2', 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 3, 'row': 0, 'col': 4, header: '<div>Panel 2</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel3', 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 1, 'col': 0, header: '<div>Panel 3</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel4', 'sizeX': 2, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 0, header: '<div>Panel 4</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel5', 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 2, header: '<div>Panel 5</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' },
{ 'id': 'Panel6', 'sizeX': 1, 'sizeY': 1, 'row': 2, 'col': 3, header: '<div>Panel 6</div>', content: '<div class="content">Panel Content<div>' }
];
return (<div>
<div className="control-section">
<DashboardLayoutComponent id='defaultLayout' cellSpacing={cellSpacing} panels={panels} columns={5}/>
</div>
</div>);
}
export default App;import { DashboardLayoutComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-layouts';

In a dashboard, components like charts, grids, maps, gauges, and more can be used to present complex data. Such components can be placed as the panel content by assigning the corresponding component element to the content of the panel.
The following example demonstrates how to integrate EJ2-Chart components as the content for each panel in the dashboard layout component.
import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective, AccumulationTooltip, Category, ChartComponent, ColumnSeries, DataLabel, Inject, Legend, LineSeries, SeriesCollectionDirective, SeriesDirective, Tooltip } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts";
import { DashboardLayoutComponent, PanelDirective, PanelsDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-layouts';
import * as React from 'react';

const cellSpacing = [10, 10];
// Template for line Chart
function lineTemplate() {
const lineData = [

{ x: 2017, y: 32 }, { x: 2018, y: 35 },
];
return (<div className="template">
<ChartComponent style={{ "height": "162px" }}><Inject services={[LineSeries]}/>
<SeriesCollectionDirective>
<SeriesDirective dataSource={lineData} xName='x' yName='y' type='Line'/>
</SeriesCollectionDirective>
</ChartComponent>
</div>);
}
// Template for Pie Chart
function pieTemplate() {
const pieData = [
{ x: 'TypeScript', y: 13, text: 'TS 13%' },
