• TableVirtuosoHandle for imperative methods
• TableComponents for customizing table elements

Extends

• Omit<VirtuosoProps<Data, Context>, "components" | "headerFooterTag">

Type Parameters

Type Parameter	Description
Data	The type of data items in the table
Context	The type of additional context passed to callbacks

Properties

alignToBottom?: boolean

Setting alignToBottom to true aligns the items to the bottom of the list if the list is shorter than the viewport. Use followOutput property to keep the list aligned when new items are appended.

Overrides

Omit.alignToBottom

---

atBottomStateChange()?

optional atBottomStateChange: (atBottom) => void

Called with true / false when the list has reached the bottom / gets scrolled up. Can be used to load newer items, like tail -f.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
atBottom	boolean

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.atBottomStateChange

---

atBottomThreshold?: number

By default 4. Redefine to change how much away from the bottom the scroller can be before the list is not considered not at bottom.

Overrides

Omit.atBottomThreshold

---

atTopStateChange()?

optional atTopStateChange: (atTop) => void

Called with true / false when the list has reached the top / gets scrolled down.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
atTop	boolean

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.atTopStateChange

---

atTopThreshold?: number

By default 0. Redefine to change how much away from the top the scroller can be before the list is not considered not at top.

Overrides

Omit.atTopThreshold

---

components?: TableComponents<Data, Context>

Use the components property for advanced customization of the elements rendered by the table.

---

computeItemKey?: ComputeItemKey<Data, Context>

If specified, the component will use the function to generate the key property for each list item.

Overrides

Omit.computeItemKey

---

context?: Context

Additional context available in the custom components and content callbacks

Inherited from

Omit.context

---

customScrollParent?: HTMLElement

Pass a reference to a scrollable parent element, so that the table won’t wrap in its own.

Overrides

Omit.customScrollParent

---

data?: readonly Data[]

The data items to be rendered. If data is set, the total count will be inferred from the length of the array.

Overrides

Omit.data

---

defaultItemHeight?: number

By default, the component assumes the default item height from the first rendered item (rendering it as a “probe”).

If the first item turns out to be an outlier (very short or tall), the rest of the rendering will be slower, as multiple passes of rendering should happen for the list to fill the viewport.

Setting defaultItemHeight causes the component to skip the “probe” rendering and use the property value as default height instead.

Overrides

Omit.defaultItemHeight

---

endReached()?

optional endReached: (index) => void

Gets called when the user scrolls to the end of the list. Receives the last item index as an argument. Can be used to implement endless scrolling.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
index	number

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.endReached

---

firstItemIndex?: number

Use when implementing inverse infinite scrolling - decrease the value this property in combination with data or totalCount to prepend items to the top of the list.

Warning: the firstItemIndex should be a positive number, based on the total amount of items to be displayed.

Overrides

Omit.firstItemIndex

---

fixedFooterContent?: FixedFooterContent

Set the contents of the table footer.

---

fixedGroupHeight?: number

Can be used to improve performance if the rendered group header items are of known size. Setting it causes the component to skip measuring group headers. The value is in pixels. This value has no effect if fixedItemHeight is not set.

Inherited from

VirtuosoProps.fixedGroupHeight

---

fixedHeaderContent?: FixedHeaderContent

Set the contents of the table header.

---

fixedItemHeight?: number

Can be used to improve performance if the rendered items are of known size. Setting it causes the component to skip item measurements.

Overrides

Omit.fixedItemHeight

---

followOutput?: FollowOutput

If set to true, the list automatically scrolls to bottom if the total count is changed. Set to "smooth" for an animated scrolling.

By default, followOutput scrolls down only if the list is already at the bottom. To implement an arbitrary logic behind that, pass a function:

tsx

Overrides

Omit.followOutput

---

heightEstimates?: number[]

Use when you have items with widely varying heights and can estimate each item’s height upfront.

Pass an array of estimated heights for each item (by index). This helps the component calculate a more accurate initial total height for the list, reducing layout shifts during initial scrolling.

The estimates don’t need to be exact - they’re used to build the initial size tree before actual measurements are taken. Once items are rendered and measured, their real heights replace the estimates.

Example

tsx

Inherited from

VirtuosoProps.heightEstimates

---

horizontalDirection?: boolean

When set, turns the scroller into a horizontal list. The items are positioned with inline-block.

Inherited from

Omit.horizontalDirection

---

increaseViewportBy?: number | { bottom: number; top: number; }

Set the increaseViewportBy property to artificially increase the viewport size, causing items to be rendered before outside of the viewport. The property causes the component to render more items than the necessary, but can help with slow loading content. Using { top?: number, bottom?: number } lets you set the increase for each end separately.

Overrides

Omit.increaseViewportBy

---

initialItemCount?: number

Use for server-side rendering - if set, the list will render the specified amount of items regardless of the container / item size.

Overrides

Omit.initialItemCount

---

initialScrollTop?: number

Set this value to offset the initial location of the list. Warning: using this property will still run a render cycle at the scrollTop: 0 list window. If possible, avoid using it and stick to initialTopMostItemIndex instead.

Overrides

Omit.initialScrollTop

---

initialTopMostItemIndex?: number | IndexLocationWithAlign

Set to a value between 0 and totalCount - 1 to make the list start scrolled to that item. Pass in an object to achieve additional effects similar to scrollToIndex.

Overrides

Omit.initialTopMostItemIndex

---

isScrolling()?

optional isScrolling: (isScrolling) => void

Called when the list starts/stops scrolling.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
isScrolling	boolean

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.isScrolling

---

itemContent?: ItemContent<Data, Context>

Set the callback to specify the contents of the item.

Overrides

Omit.itemContent

---

itemSize?: SizeFunction

Allows customizing the height/width calculation of Item elements.

The default implementation reads el.getBoundingClientRect().height and el.getBoundingClientRect().width.

Overrides

Omit.itemSize

---

itemsRendered()?

optional itemsRendered: (items) => void

Called with the new set of items each time the list items are rendered due to scrolling.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
items	ListItem<Data>[]

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.itemsRendered

---

logLevel?: LogLevel

set to LogLevel.DEBUG to enable various diagnostics in the console, the most useful being the item measurement reports.

Ensure that you have “all levels” enabled in the browser console too see the messages.

Inherited from

Omit.logLevel

---

minOverscanItemCount?: number | { bottom: number; top: number; }

Set the minimum number of items to render before and after the visible viewport boundaries. This is useful when rendering items with dynamic or very tall content, where the pixel-based increaseViewportBy may not be sufficient to prevent empty areas during rapid resizing or scrolling. Using { top?: number, bottom?: number } lets you set the count for each end separately.

Overrides

Omit.minOverscanItemCount

---

overscan?: number | { main: number; reverse: number; }

Set the overscan property to make the component “chunk” the rendering of new items on scroll. The property causes the component to render more items than the necessary, but reduces the re-renders on scroll. Setting { main: number, reverse: number } lets you extend the list in both the main and the reverse scrollable directions. See the increaseViewportBy property for a similar behavior (equivalent to the overscan in react-window).

Overrides

Omit.overscan

---

rangeChanged()?

optional rangeChanged: (range) => void

Called with the new set of items each time the list items are rendered due to scrolling.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
range	ListRange

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.rangeChanged

---

restoreStateFrom?: StateSnapshot

pass a state obtained from the getState() method to restore the list state - this includes the previously measured item sizes and the scroll location. Notice that you should still pass the same data and totalCount properties as before, so that the list can match the data with the stored measurements. This is useful when you want to keep the list state when the component is unmounted and remounted, for example when navigating to a different page.

Overrides

Omit.restoreStateFrom

---

scrollerRef()?

optional scrollerRef: (ref) => any

Provides access to the root DOM element

Parameters

Parameter	Type
ref	HTMLElement | Window | null

Returns

any

Overrides

Omit.scrollerRef

---

scrollIntoViewOnChange()?

optional scrollIntoViewOnChange: (params) => false | ScrollIntoViewLocation | null | undefined

Implement this callback if you want to adjust the list position when the list total count changes. Return a ScrollIntoViewLocation object to scroll to a specific item, or falsey value to avoid scrolling. Use the context contents if you need to implement custom logic based on the current state of the list.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
params	{ context: Context; scrollingInProgress: boolean; totalCount: number; }
params.context	Context
params.scrollingInProgress	boolean
params.totalCount	number

Returns

false | ScrollIntoViewLocation | null | undefined

Inherited from

Omit.scrollIntoViewOnChange

---

scrollSeekConfiguration?: false | ScrollSeekConfiguration

Use to display placeholders if the user scrolls fast through the list.

Set components.ScrollSeekPlaceholder to change the placeholder content.

Overrides

Omit.scrollSeekConfiguration

---

skipAnimationFrameInResizeObserver?: boolean

When set, the resize observer used to measure the items will not use requestAnimationFrame to report the size changes. Setting this to true will improve performance and reduce flickering, but will cause benign errors to be reported in the console if the size of the items changes while they are being measured. See https://github.com/petyosi/react-virtuoso/issues/1049 for more information.

Inherited from

Omit.skipAnimationFrameInResizeObserver

---

startReached()?

optional startReached: (index) => void

Called when the user scrolls to the start of the list.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
index	number

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.startReached

---

topItemCount?: number

Set the amount of items to remain fixed at the top of the table.

Overrides

Omit.topItemCount

---

totalCount?: number

The total amount of items to be rendered.

Overrides

Omit.totalCount

---

totalListHeightChanged()?

optional totalListHeightChanged: (height) => void

Called when the total list height is changed due to new items or viewport resize.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
height	number

Returns

void

Overrides

Omit.totalListHeightChanged

---

useWindowScroll?: boolean

Uses the document scroller rather than wrapping the list in its own.

Overrides

Omit.useWindowScroll

---
