Grid-size
The grid-size style sets the number of columns and rows in a grid layout.
The number of rows can be left unspecified and it will be computed automatically.
!!! note
This style only affects widgets with `layout: grid`.
Syntax
grid-size: <INTEGER> [<INTEGER>];
The first integer specifies the number of columns and the second integer specifies the number of rows.
Examples
In the first example, we create a grid with 2 columns and 5 rows, regardless of the fact that we do not have enough labels to fill in the whole grid:
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/grid_size_both.py"}
```
=== "grid_size_both.py"
```py
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/grid_size_both.py"
```
=== "grid_size_both.css"
```css hl_lines="2"
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/grid_size_both.css"
```
1. Create a grid with 2 columns and 4 rows.
In the second example, we create a grid with 2 columns and however many rows are needed to display all of the grid children:
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/grid_size_columns.py"}
```
=== "grid_size_columns.py"
```py
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/grid_size_columns.py"
```
=== "grid_size_columns.css"
```css
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/grid_size_columns.css"
```
1. Create a grid with 2 columns and however many rows.
CSS
/* Grid with 3 rows and 5 columns */
grid-size: 3 5;
/* Grid with 4 columns and as many rows as needed */
grid-size: 4;
Python
To programmatically change the grid size, the number of rows and columns must be specified separately:
widget.styles.grid_size_rows = 3
widget.styles.grid_size_columns = 6
