Compact mode for Input Controls (e.g. ComboBox, TextBox, NumericTextBox)

Hello,

I am using several input controls in a data grid. I want to reduce the data grid row height (also in edit mode), however the input controls (e.g. ComboBox) demand a certain row height.

Kindly let me know how I can achieve a more  "compact mode" for the input controls.

To be more specific: I am using the material design and want to 

  • Reduce overall control height
  • Reduce top/bottom control margins
  • Reduce space between text and bottom (red) border line. (see screenshot)
  • Reduce thickness of bottom (red) border line.
Thank you
Daniel

You can use the CssClass property as 'e-small', which will make the component size small. Please refer to the code snippet shared below for more clarification.


    <SfComboBox TValue="string" TItem="Country" CssClass="e-small" Placeholder="e.g. Australia" DataSource="@Countries">

        <ComboBoxFieldSettings Text="Name" Value="Code"></ComboBoxFieldSettings>

    </SfComboBox>

Thanks.


1) That makes it a little bit better and I was able to reduce the grid row height for a few pixels. However there is still a large padding between text and border lines. Is it possible to further reduce this padding.

2) Setting "e-small" also sets font size from 13px to 12px (theme=material). How can I keep it at 13px.
