Task bar editing in React Gantt component
2 Feb 202324 minutes to read
Modify the task details through user interaction, such as resizing and dragging the taskbar, by enabling the allowTaskbarEditing
property.

Prevent editing for specific tasks
On taskbar edit action, the taskbarEditing
event will be triggered. You can prevent the taskbar from editing using the taskbarEditing
event. This can be done by setting cancel property of taskbarEditing
event argument to true. And we can hide the taskbar editing indicators like taskbar resizer, progress resizer and connector points by using queryTaskbarInfo
event. The following code example shows how to achieve this.
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { GanttComponent, Inject, Edit } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-gantt';
import { data} from './datasource';
function App(){
const taskFields = {
id: 'TaskID',
name: 'TaskName',
startDate: 'StartDate',
duration: 'Duration',
progress: 'Progress',
child: 'subtasks'
};
const editOptions = {
allowTaskbarEditing: true
};
function taskbarEditing(args){
if (args.data.TaskID == 4) // We can't edit Task Id 4
args.cancel = true;
};
function queryTaskbarInfo(args) {
if (args.data.TaskID == 6) {
args.taskbarElement.className += ' e-preventEdit' // Taskbar editing indicators are disabled
}
};
return <GanttComponent dataSource={data} taskFields={taskFields}
editSettings={editOptions} taskbarEditing={taskbarEditing} height = '450px' queryTaskbarInfo={queryTaskbarInfo}>
<Inject services={[Edit]} />
</GanttComponent>
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { GanttComponent, Inject, Edit, EditSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-gantt';
import { data} from './datasource';
function App(){
const taskFields: any = {
id: 'TaskID',
name: 'TaskName',
startDate: 'StartDate',
duration: 'Duration',
progress: 'Progress',
child: 'subtasks'
};
const editOptions: EditSettingsModel = {
allowTaskbarEditing: true
};
function taskbarEditing(args: any){
if (args.data.TaskID == 4) // We can't edit Task Id 4
args.cancel = true;
};
function queryTaskbarInfo(args: any) {
if (args.data.TaskID == 6) {
args.taskbarElement.className += ' e-preventEdit' // Taskbar editing indicators are disabled
}
};
return <GanttComponent dataSource={data} taskFields={taskFields}
editSettings={editOptions} taskbarEditing={taskbarEditing} height = '450px' queryTaskbarInfo={queryTaskbarInfo}>
<Inject services={[Edit]} />
</GanttComponent>
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));

Task dependencies
In the Gantt component, you can update the dependencies between tasks and link the tasks interactively. The task dependencies can be mapped from the data source using the dependency
property.
You can update the task dependencies using the following ways:
- Mouse interactions: Using connector points in the taskbar, you can perform drag and drop action to create task dependency links.
- Edit dialog: Create or remove the task dependencies using the
Dependency
tab in the edit dialog. - Cell editing: Create or remove the task links using cell editing.
The following code example demonstrates how to enable task dependency editing in the Gantt chart using the editSettings
property.

Updating with mouse interaction action
Updating with cell Edit
Updating with Dialog
Note:
When the edit mode is set to Auto
, on performing double-click action on TreeGrid side, the cells will be changed to editable mode and on performing double-click action on chart side, the edit dialog will appear for editing the task details.
Update task values using method
Tasks’ value can be dynamically updated by using the updateRecordById
method. You can call this method on any custom action. The following code example shows how to use this method to update a task.
NOTE: Using the
updateRecordById
method, you cannot update the task ID value.

You can set the columns.editType
based on data type of the column.
-
numericedit
-NumericTextBox
component for integers, double, and decimal data types. -
defaultedit
-TextBox
component for string data type. -

booleanedit
-CheckBox
component for boolean data type. -
datepickeredit
-DatePicker
component for date data type. -
datetimepickeredit
-DateTimePicker
component for date time data type.
Also, you can customize the behavior of the editor component through the columns.edit.params
.
The following table describes cell edit type component and their corresponding edit params of the column.
Edit Type | Component | Example |
---|---|---|

Cell Edit Template
The cell edit template is used to create a custom component for a particular column by invoking the following functions:
-
create
- It is used to create the element at the time of initialization. -
write
- It is used to create the custom component or assign default value at the time of editing. -
read
- It is used to read the value from the component at the time of save. -
destroy
- It is used to destroy the component.

Disable editing for particular column
You can disable editing for particular columns, by using the columns.allowEditing
property.
In the following demo, editing is disabled for the TaskName
column.
