TableCell API

API documentation for the React TableCell component. Learn about the available props, and the CSS API.

Import

import TableCell from '@material-ui/core/TableCell';
// or
import { TableCell } from '@material-ui/core';

The component renders a <th> element when the parent context is a header or otherwise a <td> element.

The name MuiTableCell can be used when providing default props or style overrides in the theme.

Name	Type	Default	Description
align	'center' \| 'inherit' \| 'justify' \| 'left' \| 'right'	'inherit'	Set the text-align on the table cell content. Monetary or generally number fields should be right aligned as that allows you to add them up quickly in your head without having to worry about decimals.
children	node		The content of the component.
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
component	elementType		The component used for the root node. Either a string to use a HTML element or a component.
padding	'checkbox' \| 'none' \| 'normal'		Sets the padding applied to the cell. The prop defaults to the value (`'default'`) inherited from the parent Table component.
scope	string		Set scope attribute.
size	'medium' \| 'small'		Specify the size of the cell. The prop defaults to the value (`'medium'`) inherited from the parent Table component.
sortDirection	'asc' \| 'desc' \| false		Set aria-sort direction.
sx	object		The system prop that allows defining system overrides as well as additional CSS styles. See the `sx` page for more details.
variant	'body' \| 'footer' \| 'head'		Specify the cell type. The prop defaults to the value inherited from the parent TableHead, TableBody, or TableFooter components.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.
Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).
