      .IsResponsive(true)

   )

Auto Resizing

Enable EnableAutoResizing option to resize the RangeNavigator.

CSHTML

      .EnableAutoResizing(true)

    )

Customize range Navigator border

RangeNavigator provides options to customize the Color, Opacity and Width of range navigator Border.

CSHTML

@(Html.EJ().RangeNavigator("container")

     .Border(border=>border.Color("green").Opacity(0.5).Width(2))
    
    )

Customize size of range navigator

The Height and Width of RangeNavigator can be customized using SizeSettings property.

CSHTML

@(Html.EJ().RangeNavigator("container")

     .SizeSettings(size=>size.Height("130").Width("900"))
           
   )

Customize axis range of navigator

RangeNavigator calculates the range automatically based on the values of series data points. However you can explicitly specify the range using the Start, End properties in RangeSettings that is not possible when data is provided.

The following code example renders a RangeNavigator with a range from 2010 January 1st to 2013 January 1st.

CSHTML

@(Html.EJ().RangeNavigator("container")

. RangeSettings(range=>range.Start("2010/1/1").End("2012/13/1"))

)
