Configuring the minimum width in the React Pivot Table component

15 Sep 202520 minutes to read

The React Pivot Table component provides the minWidth property to define the minimum width threshold for the component. This configuration ensures the pivot table maintains optimal usability and prevents layout issues when the container size decreases below the specified minimum width value.

Default minimum width behavior

The pivot table automatically sets appropriate default minimum width values based on its current configuration:

Configuration Default Minimum Width Purpose
With Grouping Bar enabled 400 pixels Accommodates grouping bar UI elements and drag-drop functionality
Without Grouping Bar 310 pixels Provides sufficient space for basic pivot table operations

Setting custom minimum width

To customize the minimum width according to specific layout requirements, configure the minWidth property with the desired pixel value:

import * as React from 'react';
import { PivotViewComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-pivotview';
import { pivotData } from './datasource';
function App() {
    let dataSourceSettings = {
        columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
        dataSource: pivotData,
        expandAll: false,
        filters: [],
        drilledMembers: [{ name: 'Country', items: ['France'] }],
        formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
        rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
        values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }]
    };
    let pivotObj;
    function load() {
        if (pivotObj) {
            pivotObj.minWidth = 250;
        }
    }
    return (<PivotViewComponent ref={d => pivotObj = d} id='PivotView' width={250} dataSourceSettings={dataSourceSettings} load={load.bind(this)}>
    </PivotViewComponent>);

  };

  function load(): void {

      pivotObj.minWidth = 250;
    }
  }
