Render with separator in React Menu component

30 Jan 20237 minutes to read

The separators are both horizontal and vertical lines used to separate the menu items. You cannot select the separators, but you can enable separators to group the menu items using the separator property. The Open and Save sub menu items are grouped using the separator property in the following sample.

index.jsx

import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { MenuComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDom from 'react-dom';
enableRipple(true);
function App() {
    // Menu items definition
    let menuItems = [
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Open' },
                { text: 'Save' },
                { separator: true },
                { text: 'Exit' }
            ],
            text: 'File'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Cut' },
                { text: 'Copy' },
                { text: 'Paste' }
            ],
            text: 'Edit'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Toolbar' },
                { text: 'Sidebar' },
                { text: 'Full Screen' }
            ],
            text: 'View'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Spelling & Grammar' },
                { text: 'Customize' },
                { text: 'Options' }
            ],
            text: 'Tools'
        },
        { text: 'Go' },
        { text: 'Help' }
    ];
    return (<MenuComponent items={menuItems}/>);
}
export default App;
ReactDom.render(<App />, document.getElementById('element'));

index.tsx

import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { MenuComponent, MenuItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDom from 'react-dom';

enableRipple(true);

function App() {
    // Menu items definition
    let menuItems: MenuItemModel[] = [
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Open' },
                { text: 'Save' },
                { separator: true },
                { text: 'Exit' }
            ],
            text: 'File'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Cut' },
                { text: 'Copy' },
                { text: 'Paste' }
            ],
            text: 'Edit'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Toolbar' },
                { text: 'Sidebar' },
                { text: 'Full Screen' }
            ],
            text: 'View'
        },
        {
            items: [
                { text: 'Spelling & Grammar' },
                { text: 'Customize' },
                { text: 'Options' }
            ],
            text: 'Tools'
        },
        { text: 'Go' },
        { text: 'Help' }
    ];

    return (
        <MenuComponent items={menuItems}/>
    );
}
export default App;
ReactDom.render(<App />,document.getElementById('element'));

You can also enable the separator to group horizontal menu items.
