[PivotGrid] Aggregation Method Label

[anserban]

Question

Is there an available property for hiding the aggregation method label (ex. "SUM(Disc01 BaseCcy)" -> "Disc01 BaseCcy")? This would help in saving some space in the column headers section. We can use the menu from the left icon for identifying what agreggation is being used if we need.

@anserban This is a bug, as we have label property and we should use its value on that place

          values: [
            {
                member: 'NumberOfUnits',
                aggregate: {
                    aggregator: IgxPivotNumericAggregate.sum,
                    key: 'SUM',
                    label: ''
                },
                enabled: true

            }

It seems we are currently using the key so as a workaround, until we provide a fix, you can do empty string for a key:

          values: [
            {
                member: 'NumberOfUnits',
                aggregate: {
                    aggregator: IgxPivotNumericAggregate.sum,
                    key: '',
                    label: ''
                },
                enabled: true

            }

@dkamburov label is actually used for the drop-down content value where you change the aggregation from the chip:

It is a separate UI element, so it will not change the text in the chip by design.

Even if we introduce a second separate label property for the chip section (we use key ATM) the scenario will not be fully achieved since this will not remove the (). So you'll get (Disc01 BaseCcy) at most. You cannot get just Disc01 BaseCcy.

I'd suggest adding a custom template for the chip area, something like:

<ng-template igxPivotValueChip let-value>
         {{ value.member }}
    </ng-template>

So that you can fully customize it.
