Server-side Row Height

Learn how to set Row Heights when using the Server-side Row Model.

Dynamic Row Height

To enable Dynamic Row Height when using the Server-side Row Model you need to provide an implementation for the 'getRowHeight' Grid Options property. This is demonstrated in the example below:

Purging the cache and dynamic row heights do not work together for the Server-side Row Model. If you are using dynamic row height, ensure 'maxBlocksInCache' is not set.

Auto Row Height

To have the grid calculate the row height based on the cell contents, set autoHeight=true on columns that require variable height. The grid will calculate the height once when the data is loaded into the grid.

This is different to the Client-side Row Model where the grid height can be changed. For Server-side Row Model the row height cannot be changed once it is set.

In the example below, the following can be noted:

  • All top level groups are the same height.
  • All bottom level rows are auto-sized based on the contents of the Auto A, Auto B and Auto C columns.
  • All columns with auto-size have CSS white-space: normal to wrap the text.

Purging the cache and auto row heights do not work together for the Server-side Row Model. If you are using auto row height, ensure 'maxBlocksInCache' is not set.
