How to align text in mat-cell in Angular-Material
Here's a possible solution using CSS - stackblitz
Markup
<table mat-table [dataSource]="dataSource" class="mat-elevation-z8">
<!-- Product Column -->
<ng-container matColumnDef="Product">
<th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef> Product </th>
<td mat-cell *matCellDef="let element">
<div *ngIf="!HideShowCategory(element)">
{{element.identifier}} <br/>
{{element.categoryId}} <br/>
{{element.category}} <br/>
</div>
{{element.product}}
</td>
</ng-container>
<!-- Price Column -->
<ng-container matColumnDef="Price">
<th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef> Price </th>
<td mat-cell *matCellDef="let element" class="price-container">
<span [ngClass]="{'price-bottom': !HideShowCategory(element)}">{{element.price}}</span>
</td>
</ng-container>
<tr mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="displayedColumns"></tr>
<tr mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: displayedColumns;"></tr>
</table>
CSS
table {
width: 100%;
}
.price-container {
position: relative;
}
.price-bottom {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
The idea is to make the Price position dependent on HideShowCategory(element)
.

Here, I am using Angular-Material for displaying the list of products in which I have flat json object. I have json as follows:
data: [ { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "1", "category": "Baked goods", "product": "Aunt Hattie's", "price": "375" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "1", "category": "Baked goods", "product": "Back to Nature", "price": "343" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "2", "category": "Cakes", "product": "Mars Muffin (McVitie's)", "price": "465" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "2", "category": "Cakes", "product": "McVitie's", "price": "251" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "2", "category": "Cakes", "product": "Mr Kipling", "price": "260" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "2", "category": "Cakes", "product": "Mr Kipling Frosty Fancies", "price": "210" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "3", "category": "Dairy products", "product": "Amul", "price": "474" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "3", "category": "Dairy products", "product": "Borden", "price": "184" }, { "identifier": "data", "categoryId": "3", "category": "Dairy products", "product": "Broughton Foods Company", "price": "43" },
]
Edited I am displaying this data like this :
<table mat-table [dataSource]="dataSource" class="mat-elevation-z8"> <!-- Product Column --> <ng-container matColumnDef="Product"> <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef> Product </th> <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"> <div *ngIf="!HideShowCategory(element)"> {{element.identifier}} <br/> {{element.categoryId}} <br/> {{element.category}} <br/> </div> {{element.product}} </td> </ng-container> <!-- Price Column --> <ng-container matColumnDef="Price"> <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef> Price </th> <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"> {{element.price}} </td> </ng-container> <tr mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="displayedColumns"></tr> <tr mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: displayedColumns;"></tr> </table>
I am showing
identifier, category and product
in first column andprice
in second column in the first row. Row onwards for sameidentifier, category
I am displaying onlyproduct
.Because of which my cell height varies and of course because of that the price displaying in the next column seems to be the price of category. I want theprice
to be displayed in the bottom of the first row for sameidentifier, category
. Please refer to the working example.Everything seems perfect but the funny thing here is I am not been able to align the text inside the
mat-cell
at the bottom as my cell height varies from each other. I want to align text only when the cell height is greater than 50px-

camden_kid almost 6 years@IswarKChettri Glad it helps. It seemed the solution that required the least changes to your markup.
