contextMenuEnabled

Enables the user to group data using the context menu.

expandMode

Specifies the event on which a group will be expanded/collapsed.

Default Value: 'buttonClick', 'rowClick' (mobile devices)

By default, to expand/collapse a group, the user clicks its expand/collapse button. On small-screen devices, this approach may impair the user experience. As an alternative, consider expanding/collapsing a group by a click on the group row. For this purpose, assign "rowClick" to the grouping.expandMode property.

texts

Defines the texts of grouping-related visual elements.

Use the properties of this object to localize or customize grouping-related elements. For example, the groupByThisColumn, ungroup and ungroupAll properties customize items of the context menu. These items appear in the menu only if the grouping.contextMenuEnabled property is set to true.

Also, this object contains the groupContinuesMessage and groupContinuedMessage properties that specify the text added to group rows when the group is parted.
