The clip mode provides options to display its overflow cell content and it can be defined by the columns.clipMode property.

There are three types of clipMode. They are:

• Clip: Truncates the cell content when it overflows its area.
• Ellipsis: Displays ellipsis when the cell content overflows its area.
• EllipsisWithTooltip: Displays ellipsis when the cell content overflows its area, also it will display the tooltip while hover on ellipsis is applied.

app.jsx

import { ColumnDirective, ColumnsDirective, TreeGridComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-treegrid';
import * as React from 'react';
import { complexData } from './datasource';
function App() {
    return <TreeGridComponent dataSource={complexData} treeColumnIndex={1} childMapping='subtasks' height='300' gridLines='Both'>
        <ColumnsDirective>
          <ColumnDirective field='taskID' headerText='Task ID' width='90' textAlign='Right'/>
          <ColumnDirective field='taskName' headerText='Task Name' width='70' clipMode='Clip'/>
