Grid

    Use any of the Grid Pattern symbols/components as an alternative starting point when designing a tabular data layout. They provide a full-blown contentwise and stylewise Grid Component, on which all the Grid functionality, provided in the Components Library can be applied.

    The Grid Pattern with Column Moving, Summaries and Paging is shown below:

    List of all the Grid functionality:

    • Sorting
    • Filtering
    • Summaries
    • Paging
    • Editing
    • Column Moving
    • Column Resizing
    • Column Hiding

    • Pinning
    • Row Selection
    • Row Editing

    Grid Pattern symbols come in six pre-made combinations of Grid features:

    Warning

    In Sketch, after inserting any of the Grid Patterns, you can trigger Detach from Symbol only if you need to alter the number of cells provided, in order to show all the dimensions of your data and insert as many visible records as you want. The individual Components and Features, however, must stay intact and not be detached! This applies for Figma too, where you'll need to select any of the Grid Patterns, right-click on it and choose "Detach instance". From there you can make any modifications you'd like.

    In Adobe XD you can add more cells than provided by duplicating columns and rows without ever having to ungroup the pattern itself.
