get a handle on jqxgrid

[roykrishParticipant]

When we create jqxgrid using the Angular plugin of jqwidgets we don’t provide an id from the code. Instead, it generates an id for the grid in DOM at run time. The id looks like a random one.

Is there a way to catch hold of that ID ?

Thanks

Can someone please reply to this.

Is it possible to catch hold of the id of the grid while working with the Angular plugin. I found that this works –

var gridID = this.myGrid.host.context.id;

Can we use it like this ?

Hi roykrish,

You need to atach a reference to the grid. For example:

<jqxGrid #myGrid [width]="500"></jqxGrid>

Then inside your component, you can reference it like that:

@ViewChild('myGrid') myGrid: jqxGridComponent;

And you can get the id like this:

this.myGrid.elementRef.nativeElement.id

Regards,
Stanislav
