Devextreme: `customizeExcelCell` in pivot grid

Created on 13 Feb 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: DevExpress/DevExtreme

We have customizeExcelCell function for pivot grid but we can't customize because we don't know what is value passing to customizeExcelCell.

Would be nice to have gridCell in arguments (like for dxDataGrid) or smth like this for determining what is value currently customizing.

We researched how to add the customizeExcelCell event to PivotGrid and found that it will take us some time to implement/test/describe/demonstrate a possible approach.
While researching the issue, we found several scenarios that are not supported by our current DataGrid/PivotGrid exporting code and we cannot improve our code within a reasonable time frame (see Excel Export Enhancements).
We investigated these scenarios and implemented a new solution to export DataGrid to XLSX, see DevExtreme - Data Grid - New Excel Export API Update (CTP in v19.1).
This approach allows you to implement much more scenarios and we plan to introduce a similar solution for PivotGrid in one of our next releases (though I cannot promise any strict time frame).

Fox example I want to set different number format depends on column name/type.

customizeExcelCell is not a part of the built-in PivotGrid API in v19.2

@EugeniyKiyashko @IgnatovDan what do you think of this as a possible improvement?
