If the above style options are not enough, you can write you own custom css to apply styles on the elements.

`scss
.faq-row-wrapper {
.faq-title {
}

.faq-body {
.faq-row {
.row-title {
}

.row-content {
.row-content-text {
}
}
}
}
}
`

Example with css style

These classnames are applied to the elements and do not contain any styles.



getRowOptions props (optional)



A function is passed as a value to getRowOptions prop, which gets called with an array parameter. The length of the array is the same as the number of rows present in FAQ data. 3 functions in an object are exported per row to toggle and scrollTntoView.

`js
[
// option for first row item
{
close: () => {},
expand: () => {},
scrollIntoView: (option) => {}, // option values : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/scrollIntoView#parameters
},
{...},
{...},
{...},
];
`

Example:

`jsx
export default function SampleFaqApp() {
const [rows, setRowsOption] = useState(null);

useEffect(() => {
if (rows) {
setTimeout(() => {
rows[0].expand();
}, 2500);

setTimeout(() => {
rows[0].close();
}, 5000);

setTimeout(() => {
rows[0].scrollIntoView();
// rows[0].scrollIntoView(true);
}, 10000);
}
}, [rows]);

return (

FAQ section

);
``

Note: On accessing invalid array index, an error will be logged in console.
