Hide the fixed group header by setting visibility: hidden on the group header element with custom CSS. The header remains in the layout but is no longer visible.

The following example demonstrates how to disable the fixed group header in React Dropdown List using CSS with the visibility attribute:

import { DropDownListComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-dropdowns';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
export default class App extends React.Component {
    // define the data with category
    vegetableData = [
        { Vegetable: 'Cabbage', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item1' },
        { Vegetable: 'Spinach', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item2' },
        { Vegetable: 'Wheat grass', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item3' },
        { Vegetable: 'Yarrow', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item4' },
        { Vegetable: 'Pumpkins', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item5' },
        { Vegetable: 'Chickpea', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item6' },
        { Vegetable: 'Green bean', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item7' },
        { Vegetable: 'Horse gram', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item8' },
        { Vegetable: 'Garlic', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item9' },
        { Vegetable: 'Nopal', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item10' },
        { Vegetable: 'Onion', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item11' }
    ];
    // map the groupBy field with Category column
    fields = { groupBy: 'Category', text: 'Vegetable', value: 'Id' };
    render() {
        return (
        // specifies the tag for render the DropDownList component
        <DropDownListComponent id="ddlelement" popupHeight='200px' fields={this.fields} dataSource={this.vegetableData} placeholder="Select a vegetable"/>);
    }
}
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('sample'));
import { DropDownListComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-dropdowns';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

export default class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
    // define the data with category
    private vegetableData: { [key: string]: Object }[] = [
        { Vegetable: 'Cabbage', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item1' },
        { Vegetable: 'Spinach', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item2' },
        { Vegetable: 'Wheat grass', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item3' },
        { Vegetable: 'Yarrow', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item4' },
        { Vegetable: 'Pumpkins', Category: 'Leafy and Salad', Id: 'item5' },
        { Vegetable: 'Chickpea', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item6' },
        { Vegetable: 'Green bean', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item7' },
        { Vegetable: 'Horse gram', Category: 'Beans', Id: 'item8' },
        { Vegetable: 'Garlic', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item9' },
        { Vegetable: 'Nopal', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item10' },
        { Vegetable: 'Onion', Category: 'Bulb and Stem', Id: 'item11' }
    ];

    // map the groupBy field with Category column
    private fields: object = { groupBy: 'Category', text: 'Vegetable', value: 'Id' };

    public render() {
        return (
             // specifies the tag for render the DropDownList component
            <DropDownListComponent id="ddlelement" popupHeight='200px' fields={this.fields} dataSource={this.vegetableData} placeholder="Select a vegetable" />
        );
    }
}
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('sample'));
