Vue Data GridRow Grouping - Sticky GroupsEnterprise

This section covers Sticky Groups, which display group rows that are expanded at the top of the viewport while the last child of the group is also in the viewport.

Enabling Sticky Groups

To enable sticky groups, set the groupRowsSticky property to true. This behaviour applies to all row group levels.

<ag-grid-vue
    :columnDefs="columnDefs"
    :groupRowsSticky="groupRowsSticky"
    /* other grid options ... */>
</ag-grid-vue>

this.columnDefs = [
    { field: 'country', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'year', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'athlete' },
    { field: 'sport' },
    { field: 'total' }
];

this.groupRowsSticky = true;

In the snippet above, rows will be grouped by country and year as both column definitions have rowGroup=true declared.

The example below demonstrates the default row grouping behaviour with sticky groups. Note the following:

There are two active row groups as the supplied country and year column definitions have rowGroup=true declared.
Expand the UNITED STATES row group and scroll the grid down. Note the UNITED STATES group row will remain at the top of the viewport while you’re scrolling through its children as groupRowsSticky = true.

Example: Single Group Column

With Multiple Group Columns

Sticky groups supports row grouping using Multiple Group Columns.

At the moment groupRowsSticky does not work with the following features: Hide Open Parents and Row Pagination. Turning them on at the same time will cause unexpected behaviour.

<ag-grid-vue
    :columnDefs="columnDefs"
    :groupDisplayType="groupDisplayType"
    :groupRowsSticky="groupRowsSticky"
    /* other grid options ... */>
</ag-grid-vue>

this.columnDefs = [
    { field: 'country', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'year', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'athlete' },
    { field: 'sport' },
    { field: 'total' }
];

this.groupDisplayType = 'multipleColumns';

this.groupRowsSticky = true;

In the snippet above, rows will be grouped by country and year as both column definitions have rowGroup=true declared. The snippet also sets groupDisplayType='multipleColumns', displaying a separate column for each group column. Setting groupRowsSticky=true turns on sticky groups which will apply to all the group columns.

This is demonstrated in the following example, note the following:

There are two active row groups as the supplied country and year column definitions have rowGroup=true declared.
Separate group columns are displayed for country and year as groupDisplayType = 'multipleColumns'.
Expand the UNITED STATES and 2008 row groups and scroll the grid down. Note the group rows for both UNITED STATES and 2008 will remain at the top while you scroll through its children as groupRowsSticky = true.

Example: Multiple Group Columns

With Group Rows

Sticky groups supports row grouping using Group Rows.

<ag-grid-vue
    :columnDefs="columnDefs"
    :groupDisplayType="groupDisplayType"
    :groupRowsSticky="groupRowsSticky"
    /* other grid options ... */>
</ag-grid-vue>

this.columnDefs = [
    { field: 'country', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'year', rowGroup: true, hide: true },
    { field: 'sport' },
    { field: 'total' }
];

this.groupDisplayType = 'groupRows';

this.groupRowsSticky = true;

In the snippet above, rows will be grouped by country and year as both column definitions have rowGroup=true declared. These row groups will be displayed using Group Rows as groupDisplayType = 'groupRows' and groupRowsSticky=true turns on sticky groups.

The example below demonstrates the Group Rows display type. Note the following:

There are two active row groups as the supplied country and year column definitions have rowGroup=true declared.
Instead of group columns, the row groups are displayed using full width group rows as groupDisplayType = 'groupRows'.
Expand the UNITED STATES row group and scroll the grid down. Note the UNITED STATES group row will remain at the top while you’re scrolling through its children as groupRowsSticky = true.
