Hi,
Can we change a font-size for a column and it should be for a column specific.
I want to add one more textbox or something to change font-size in format cells window, so user can choose the font size per column.
Please suggest on this?

Thanks & Regards,
Sunilkumar.V

Hello Sunil,

Thank you for the question.
Unfortunately, there is no API for such purpose.
Maybe you can find some workaround to achieve this using CSS/jQuery.

Regards,
Ian

Hi Ian,
Thanks for clarification.
Instead of column specific, Can we increase/set the font-size for entire component data by default?

Please modify flexmosnter.css file. E.g.
#fm-grid-view .fm-cell {
padding: 4px;
vertical-align: middle;
font-size: 11px;
}

Hi Ian,
Can you please consider/add setting column-wise font-size feature is in your backlog?
Ideally it should be something that users may way to customize themselves – so it would be good to have that option.

Hello Sunil,

Could you please give us more information on use cases? When this feature is useful? How do you see its usage? Is it something similar to the conditional formatting we have?

Kind regards,
Iryna

Hi,
yes, this is something similar to conditional formatting. but, conditional formatting can be applied on some special conditions.
also, we heard the feedback from the users that font size probably is too small and we may want to increase 1 or 2 points as a default.
and some users asked if we have a large datasets with 50 columns which may have 20 to 25 measures around, to identify some typical measures they want to give the columns with some different font-sizes.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Sunil,

Thanks for the clarification.
Actually, you are able to increase default font size using CSS as we suggested in the previous message.
As for the new feature that will allow users to customize some specific columns, we will review all requests with creating Roadmap for 2.4 (Roadmap for 2.3 is now determined and cannot be changed).

Regards,
Ian
