GridListTile API

The API documentation of the GridListTile React component. Learn more about the props and the CSS customization points.

Import

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

You can learn more about the difference by reading this guide.

⚠️ The GridList component was renamed to ImageList to align with the current Material Design naming.

You should use import { ImageListItem } from '@material-ui/core' or import ImageListItem from '@material-ui/core/ImageListItem'.

Component name

The MuiGridListTile name can be used for providing default props or style overrides at the theme level.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
children	node		Theoretically you can pass any node as children, but the main use case is to pass an img, in which case GridListTile takes care of making the image "cover" available space (similar to background-size: cover or to object-fit: cover).
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
cols	number	1	Width of the tile in number of grid cells.
component	elementType	'li'	The component used for the root node. Either a string to use a HTML element or a component.
rows	number	1	Height of the tile in number of grid cells.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).

CSS

Rule name	Global class	Description
root	.MuiGridListTile-root	Styles applied to the root element.
tile	.MuiGridListTile-tile	Styles applied to the div element that wraps the children.
imgFullHeight	.MuiGridListTile-imgFullHeight	Styles applied to an img element child, if needed to ensure it covers the tile.
imgFullWidth	.MuiGridListTile-imgFullWidth	Styles applied to an img element child, if needed to ensure it covers the tile.

You can override the style of the component thanks to one of these customization points:

• With a rule name of the classes object prop.
• With a global class name.
• With a theme and an overrides property.

If that's not sufficient, you can check the implementation of the component for more detail.
