The ActionColumn class works with the FeatureTable and is designed specifically for displaying a singular Calcite Action component for each row in the table. These actions can be configured with a specific icon. The callback function is invoked whenever the action is clicked. Actions can be configured to dynamically display based on provided conditions.

autoWidth

inherited Property
Type
boolean
Inherited from: Column

Indicates if the column width will automatically adjust to account for large content. The column ignores the current width property when autoWidth is true.

Default value
false

callback

Property
Type
ActionColumnCallback

Function invoked when an individual action is clicked or pressed.

declaredClass

readonlyinherited Property
Type
string
Inherited from: Accessor

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

description

inherited Property
Type
string | null | undefined
Inherited from: Column

Contains information describing the purpose of each column.

direction

inherited Property
Type
Direction
Inherited from: Column

Controls the sort order of the column. This property will only be honored on one column in the FeatureTable widget. If direction is specified on more than one column in the same FeatureTable, it will only be honored on the column with the highest index.

This is used in combination with the initialSortPriority and FeatureTable.multiSortEnabled properties to set sorting functionality for multiple columns.

Possible ValueDescription
ascSorts the column in ascending order.
descSorts the column in descending order.
nullNo sort is applied to the column.

disabled

Property
Type
ActionColumnDisabledFunction | boolean | null | undefined

Indicates if the action should appear disabled. This prevents interaction with the specific action component. This property accepts a boolean or a function that returns a boolean, therefore making it possible to dynamically disable actions based on a condition (e.g. if a row is selected).

effectiveDescription

readonlyinherited Property
Type
string | null | undefined
Inherited from: Column
Since
ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.31

The sanitized description string, describing the purpose of each column.

effectiveLabel

readonlyinherited Property
Type
string
Inherited from: Column

The sanitized label string safe for display in the header cell. Defaults to using fieldName if a label is not defined on the column.

fieldName

readonlyinherited Property
Type
string
Inherited from: Column

The unique field name as defined by the data source.

flexGrow

inherited Property
Type
number
Inherited from: Column

Controls the flex-grow property for the column. When set to 0, cell width is fixed.

Default value
1

formatFunction

readonlyinherited Property
Type
FormatFunction | null | undefined
Inherited from: Column

Custom function for rendering cell content that is called when the column is rendered in the table. The function should return the formatted content to display within a table's cell. This can be a string, number, an HTML element, or equivalent node type (e.g. a Calcite component). If the content is an HTML element, it is appended to the root element. If the content is a string or number, it is set as the innerHTML of the root element. If the content is null, the root element is cleared. If the content is undefined, the root element is not modified. This property is useful when you want to customize the cell content. For example, you can use this property to create a custom cell renderer that displays a progress bar in the cell. The progress bar can be used to show the progress of a task.

Example
// The following example demonstrates how to use the formatFunction property to create a custom cell renderer that displays a progress bar in the cell. The progress bar can be used to show the progress of a task.
column.formatFunction = ({ column, feature, index, value })=> {
const progress = document.createElement("progress");
progress.max = 100;
progress.value = value;
return progress;
};

frozen

readonlyinherited Property
Type
boolean
Inherited from: Column

Indicates if the the column is frozen in place at the beginning of the table. Column must be first in the FeatureTable's column's, or next to other frozen columns.

Default value

frozenToEnd

readonlyinherited Property
Type
boolean
Inherited from: Column

Indicates if the column is frozen in place at the end of the table. Column must be last in the FeatureTable's column's, or next to other columns with frozenToEnd set to true.

Default value
false

hidden

inherited Property
Type
boolean
Inherited from: Column

Indicates whether the column is visible.

Default value
false

icon

Property
Type
Icon["icon"]

Type
string | null | undefined
Inherited from: Column
Since
