Users can interact with the TreeMap control by selecting either the leaf nodes or the groups.

Selection

Selection support enables you to highlight the items on which the mouse tapping has occurred. You can select the following contents of the TreeMap control:

• Leaf Nodes
• Group

Single Selection

To enable the selection of the leaf nodes, the highlightOnSelection property in treemap is set as true. When the selection occurs, the item is highlighted with a bounding rectangle around the selected leaf node.
The border can be customized with the highlightBorderBrush and highlightBorderThickness properties.

JS

"use strict";

ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.TreeMap id="treemap1" highlightOnSelection = {true} highlightBorderBrush = "#3e3e3e"
    highlightBorderThickness = {1}> </EJ.TreeMap>,
    document.getElementById('treemaps')
);

Group Selection

To enable the selection of leaf nodes, the highlightGroupOnSelection property in treemap is set as true. When the selection occurs, bounding rectangle highlights the selected group.

JS

"use strict";

ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.TreeMap id="treemap1" highlightGroupOnSelection = {true} highlightBorderBrush = "#3e3e3e"
    highlightBorderThickness = {1}> </EJ.TreeMap>,
    document.getElementById('treemaps')
);

MultiSelection

This feature enables you to select multiple leaf nodes or groups simultaneously. To enable this feature for leaf nodes, set selectionMode as “multiple” and for groups, set groupSelectionMode as “multiple”
To select multiple items simultaneously, the mouse tap should be done along with a continuous press of the “Control” key.

Selection (Multiple)

ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.TreeMap id="treemap1" highlightOnSelection = {true} selectionMode = "multiple"> </EJ.TreeMap>,
    document.getElementById('treemaps')
);

Group Selection (Multiple)

JS

"use strict";

ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.TreeMap id="treemap1" highlightGroupOnSelection = {true} groupSelectionMode = "multiple"> </EJ.TreeMap>,
    document.getElementById('treemaps')
);
