Swimlanes are horizontal categorizations of cards on the Kanban board. It is used for grouping of cards, which brings transparency to the workflow process.

Render swimlane row

Cards can be grouped based on keyField and displayed in rows, which are separated by columns. It is mandatory to define the keyField that is mapped from the datasource for rendering swimlane rows in the Kanban board.

Custom row text

Customize the swimlane row header text by using the textField property mapped from datasource.

It is not mandatory to define the textField to swimlaneSettings. It will automatically consider the keyField to swimlane row header text.
If the mapping textField key is not present in the datasource, it will consider the swimlane keyField as swimlane row header text.

Template

To learn about Kanban customize swimlane using templates, you can check out this video:

You can customize the Kanban swimlane row by using the template property, which is specified within the swimlaneSettings property. In this demo, the swimlane header is customized with HTML element.

Sorting

Swimlane rows are rendered on descending order when using the sortBy property set to Descending order. By default, swimlane rows are rendered by Ascending order.

Drag-and-drop

Create empty row

You can render the empty swimlane row by enabling the showEmptyRow property. If mapping keyField does not have cards, empty swimlane row will be rendered.

Enable frozen rows

Frozen rows provide an option to make the current swimlane row header text always visible on top of the content while scrolling the Kanban content. The swimlane header text will be changed dynamically, when you scroll to another swimlane row.

By default, the enableFrozenRows property is set as false. If you wish to show the swimlane frozen rows, you can enable the enableFrozenRows property.

This feature support only when using Kanban content scrolling.
