This topic provides an overview of the Cell Merging feature of the WebDataGrid™.
The following table lists the materials required as a prerequisite to understanding this topic.
Cell merging is a feature that enables users to merge grid cells that have same values. The cells are merged only visually, i.e. the grid structure is not affected by the user’s merging action. Cell merging works on sorting.
The two pictures that follow demonstrate a column with unmerged (left) and merged (right) values.
By default, Cell Merging is disabled. For details on how to enable it, refer to the Enabling Cell Merging (WebDataGrid) topic.
If the grid is configured for client-side rendering, Cell Merging will be performed on the client. (The default is on the server.) For details, refer to Enabling Cell Merging (WebDataGrid).
