DxGridColumn.TextAlignment Property

Specifies the alignment of text in column cells.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

[DefaultValue(GridTextAlignment.Auto)]
[Parameter]
public GridTextAlignment TextAlignment { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
GridTextAlignment	Auto	A GridTextAlignment enumeration value.

Available values:

Name	Description
Auto	Aligns the text based on cell content and column data type.
Left	Aligns cell text to the left.
Center	Centers cell text.
Right	Aligns cell text to the right.

Remarks

The Grid component aligns the contents of data and footer cells based on the cell data type and column type. For example, the default behavior of the DxGridCommandColumn and DxGridSelectionColumn is to center their content.

Use the TextAlignment property to change the text alignment in column cells. The following example applies this property:
