The Gantt control for JavaScript has built-in support for searching any content in Gantt.

Searching for content columns

In Gantt, you can search the content using the JavaScript method searchItem with search key as parameter. Also, you can integrate the search text box in Gantt toolbar by adding the search toolbar item in the toolbarSetting.toolbarItems property.

The following code example shows how to add the search option in the Gantt toolbar:

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • <body ng-controller="GanttCtrl">
       <!--Add  Gantt control here-->    
       <div id="GanttContainer" ej-gantt
          //...
          e-toolbarsettings="toolbarSettings" 
          >
       </div>
      <script>
        var toolbarSettings= {
                    showToolbar: true,
                    toolbarItems: [
                    ej.Gantt.ToolbarItems.Search, //TO FIND THE TASK
                    ],
                }
        angular.module('listCtrl', ['ejangular'])
            .controller('GanttCtrl', function($scope) {
                //...
                $scope.toolbarSettings = "toolbarSettings";
            });
    </script>
    </body>
