Show or Hide columns on Exported Excel

You can show a hidden column or hide a visible column while printing the grid using toolbarClick and pdfExportComplete events.

In the toolbarClick event, based on args.item.id as Grid_pdfexport. We can show or hide columns by setting column.visible property to true or false respectively.

In the pdfExportComplete event, We have reversed the state back to the previous state.

In the below example, we have CustomerID as a hidden column in the grid. While exporting, we have changed CustomerID to visible column and ShipCity as hidden column.

Conditional Cell Formatting

Grid cells in the exported Excel can be customized or formatted using excelQueryCellInfo event. In this event, we can format the grid cells of exported PDF document based on the column cell value.

In the below sample, we have set the background color for Freight column in the exported excel by args.cell and backColor property.

Exporting grouped records

The excel export provides outline option for grouped records which hides the detailed data for better viewing. In grid, we have provided the outline option for the exported document when the data’s are grouped.

Limitations

  • Microsoft Excel permits up to seven nested levels in outlines. So that in the grid we can able to provide only up to seven nested levels and if it exceeds more than seven levels then the document will be exported without outline option. Please refer the Microsoft Limitation
