Stacked Headers

The stacked headers helps you to group the logical columns in Kanban. It can be shown by setting e-show-Stacked-Header as true and by defining e-stacked-header-rows.bind.

Adding Stacked header columns

To stack columns in stacked header, you need to define ej-kanban-column property in stackedHeaderColumns with field names of visible columns.

The following code example describes the above behavior.

html

<template>
    <div>
        <ej-kanban id="Kanban" e-data-source.bind="KanbanData" e-key-field="Status" e-fields.bind="Field" e-stacked-header-rows.bind="stackedHeaderRow">
            <ej-kanban-column e-header-text="Backlog" e-key="Open"></ej-kanban-column>
            <ej-kanban-column e-header-text="In Progress" e-key="InProgress"></ej-kanban-column>
            <ej-kanban-column e-header-text="Testing" e-key="Testing"></ej-kanban-column>
            <ej-kanban-column e-header-text="Done" e-key="Close"></ej-kanban-column>
        </ej-kanban>
    </div>
</template>

javascript

export class Kanban {
    constructor() {
        this.KanbanData = [
