Messages

The Grid supports both built-in and custom messages.

Built-In Messages

To translate the built-in Grid messages, you can utilize the Angular i18n framework. For more information on how to achieve this, refer to the article on Localization.

Custom Messages

You can also override individual messages for each Grid instance by utilizing the attribute bindings. To use them, you do not have to set up the application for i18n. For a full list of the available Grid messages, refer to the CustomMessagesComponent API.

In i18n applications, message attributes take precedence over localized text from translation files.

The following example demonstrates how to customize the built-in messages of the Grid.
