DxTreeList.DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate Property

Specifies a common template used to display all data column cells in the TreeList.

Namespace : DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly : DevExpress.Blazor.v25.2.dll

NuGet Package : DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

csharp
[Parameter]
public RenderFragment<TreeListDataColumnCellDisplayTemplateContext> DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate { get; set; }

Property Value

TypeDescription
RenderFragment<TreeListDataColumnCellDisplayTemplateContext>

Template content.

|

Remarks

The DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate allows you to specify custom content and change the appearance of cells in all TreeList data columns. To define a template for individual TreeList data columns, use the DxTreeListDataColumn.CellDisplayTemplate.

The DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate accepts a TreeListDataColumnCellDisplayTemplateContext object as the context parameter. You can use the parameter’s members to get information about a column cell (DataColumn, Value, DisplayText, VisibleIndex). You can also access the TreeList object and use its members to obtain additional information about the TreeList.

The following example customizes appearance of column cells to distinguish between odd and even rows:

razor
@inject EmployeeTaskService EmployeeTaskService

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData" KeyFieldName="Id" ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId">
    <Columns>
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="Name" Caption="Task" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="EmployeeName" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="StartDate" />
        <DxTreeListDataColumn FieldName="DueDate" />
    </Columns>
    <DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate>
        @{
            if (context.VisibleIndex % 2 == 1) {
                if (context.DataColumn.FieldName.Contains("Date")) {
                    <span class="my-date-style">@context.DisplayText</span>
                }
                else {
                    <span class="my-style">@context.DisplayText</span>
                }
            }
            else {
                <span>@context.DisplayText</span>
            }
        }
    </DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate>
</DxTreeList>

@code {
    List<EmployeeTask> TreeListData { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized() {
        TreeListData = EmployeeTaskService.GenerateData();
    }

For additional information about templates in the TreeList component, refer to the following topic: Templates in Blazor TreeList.

Cell Editing Specifics

During edit operations, the TreeList applies user changes only to the edit model and keeps the data item unchanged. DataItem, DisplayText, and Value context parameters return information about the data item, not the edit model. As a result, values of these properties do not reflect unsaved changes.

When the EditMode is set to CellEdit, only one TreeList cell can be in edit mode while others are in display mode. The CellDisplayTemplate affects contents of cells in display mode, including cells with modified values. To display unsaved changes in the CellDisplayTemplate, use the edit model’s field values instead of properties of the template’s context parameter:

razor
@inject EmployeeTaskService EmployeeTaskService

<DxTreeList Data="TreeListData"
            KeyFieldName="Id"
            ParentKeyFieldName="ParentId"
            EditMode="TreeListEditMode.EditCell"
            EditModelSaving="TreeList_EditModelSaving"
            DataItemDeleting="TreeList_DataItemDeleting"
            CustomizeEditModel="TreeList_CustomizeEditModel">
    <Columns>

            string value;
            if (displayContext.TreeList.IsEditingRow(displayContext.VisibleIndex)) {
                var editModel = (EmployeeTask)displayContext.TreeList.GetEditContext().Model;
                var fieldName = displayContext.DataColumn.FieldName;
                value = editModel.GetType().GetProperty(fieldName).GetValue(editModel).ToString();
            }
            else
                value = displayContext.DisplayText;
        }
        <span>@value</span>
    </DataColumnCellDisplayTemplate>
