ui.igGridResponsive

ui.igGridResponsive_image

The Responsive Web Design (RWD) Mode feature of the igGrid control adopts the concepts of Responsive Web Design in order to improve user experience on different devices. Responsive Web Design mode allows you to support multiple screen sizes and form factors with single code base and design. In RWD mode, the grid’s adaptation to the devices’ screen can be configured to be either:

  • Auto-hiding of columns (This is configured through the RWD mode feature’s column hiding functionality.)
  • Any structural and formatting change that can be implemented through a grid template

To this end, the RWD Mode feature supports a set of pre-defined grid templates which replace the igGrid template once the RWD mode sets in. Using templates allows for a wide scope of adaptations, including row hiding, using different fonts and font sizes, merging several rows/columns in one row/column, and many others. The RWD mode supports having different grid adaptations for different device screen sizes. A set of pre-defined adaptations to which a unique name is assigned is called “RWD mode profile”. Each profile has a range of screen sizes for which it is activated. As different screen sizes are, in practice, associated with different types of devices, the RWD mode profiles are essentially associated with device types.

The igGrid control comes with three pre-defined RWD mode profiles based on the device’s screen width. Those profiles are activated using CSS3 media queries:

  • Phone – for screen widths up to 767 pixels. Default available CSS classes are: ui-visible-phone and ui-hidden-phone. The name of the profile is “phone”.
  • Tablet – for screen widths between 768 pixels and 979 pixels. Default available CSS classes are: ui-visible-tablet and ui-hidden-tablet. The name of the profile is “tablet”.
  • Desktop –for screen widths larger than 980 pixels. Default available CSS classes are: ui-visible-desktop and ui-hidden-desktop. The name of the profile is “desktop”.

Further information regarding the classes, options, events, methods and themes of this API are available under the associated tabs above.

The following code snippet demonstrates how to initialize the igGrid control with Responsive Web Design Mode feature.
