jQWidgets jqxGrid theme Property

Last Updated : 29 Mar, 2023

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxGrid is used to illustrate a jQuery widget that shows data in tabular form. Moreover, it renders full support for connecting with data, as well as paging, grouping, sorting, filtering, and editing.

The theme property is used to set or return the theme for the jqxGrid widget. It accepts string type value and its default value is empty (”). In order to use this property, we need to incorporate the theme stylesheet i.e. (jqx.energyblue.css) into the header section. The theme file is included after the jqx.base.css file.

Syntax:

Set the theme property.

$('#Selector').jqxGrid({ theme: 'energyblue'});

Return the theme property.

var theme = $('#Selector').jqxGrid('theme');
