Templates
The AutoComplete provides templates which enable you to customize the content of its suggestion list items and elements.
Item Template
To customize the content of the suggestion list items, use the item template. To define an item template, nest an <ng-template>
tag with the kendoAutoCompleteItemTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
Use the let-dataItem
directive to access the template context that is established based on the current data item displayed in the component list.
Header Template
To customize the header element of the suggestion list, use the header template. To define a header template, nest an <ng-template>
tag with a kendoAutoCompleteHeaderTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
The template context is set to the current AutoComplete component.
Footer Template
To customize the footer element of the suggested list, use the footer template. To define a footer template, nest an <ng-template>
tag with a kendoAutoCompleteFooterTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
The template context is set to the current AutoComplete component.
No-Data Template
To customize the content of the suggested list when no data is available, use the no-data template. To define a no-data template, nest an <ng-template>
tag with a kendoAutoCompleteNoDataTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
Group Header Template
To customize the content of the group headers in the list, nest an <ng-template>
tag with a kendoAutoCompleteGroupTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
The current group name is available as implicit context variable (let-groupName
).
Fixed Group Header Template
To customize the content of the group header that is fixed above the list, nest an <ng-template>
tag with a kendoAutoCompleteFixedGroupTemplate
directive inside a <kendo-autocomplete>
tag.
The current group name is available as an implicit context variable (let-groupName
).
Hint: scroll to the second group header to see its template changing.
