How can you make the splitter collapse on a button click?
1 min read
We can achieve this requirement using the methods “collapse” and “expand” of Splitter control. We can call this methods in any events (for example button click event) in order to expand / collapse the pane of splitter by passing the index value of the required pane.
Please find the below code blocks to achieve the requirement.

Javascript
$(function () {
$("#outterSpliter").ejSplitter({
height: 250,
width:"100%",
orientation: ej.Orientation.Vertical,
properties: [{}, { paneSize: 80 }],
enableAutoResize:true,
});
$("#innerSpliter").ejSplitter({enableAutoResize:true});
SplitterObj = $("#outterSpliter").data("ejSplitter");
});
$("#collapse_button").bind("click", function () {
//To collapse the split pane use below mentioned code, here we should specify
//the split pane index number
SplitterObj.collapse(1);
});
$("#expand_button").bind("click", function () {
SplitterObj.expand(1);
});
Refer to the sample:

After running this sample, if you click the expand and collapse button, it will perform expand and collapse actions for Pane 3.
