Data Table font size/color

Can I color the columns in a table control? If so, can I make some columns be a different color from the others?

Can I make the header row in the table control look different (fill color, font style, etc.) from the rows below it?

How do I change the font size for all text in the table control?

Hi @donald.kantik,

Unfortunately, there is no simple way to customize the appearance of DataView columns at the moment. You can achieve this with custom CSS, but that won't be easy.

We could implement this feature for you for additional pay. Feel free to send us a paid support request at support@plumsail.com if you'd consider that option.

Is there a way to change the font size for the entire table? I have 8 columns in my data table and would like to make the entire table smaller so it will fit better on a screen without having to scroll.

Hi @donald.kantik,

Sure thing, you can use this CSS snippet:

/*Decrease the table text size*/
.fd-datatable {
    font-size: 5px !important;
}

/*Decrease the "Add new entry" button text size*/
.k-button.k-button-icontext.k-grid-add {
    font-size: 5px !important;
}
