beginUpdate()
Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

defaultOptions is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default properties for all instances of the Tabs UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxTabs.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } });
Angular
import Tabs, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { Tabs.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxTabs id="tabs1" /> <DxTabs id="tabs2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxTabs from "devextreme-vue/tabs"; import Tabs from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; Tabs.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); export default { components: { DxTabs } } </script>
React
import dxTabs from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; import Tabs from "devextreme-react/tabs"; dxTabs.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <Tabs id="tabs1" /> <Tabs id="tabs2" /> </div> ) }
You can also set rules for multiple device types:
jQuery
const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { DevExpress.ui.dxTabs.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); });
Angular
import Tabs, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { Tabs.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxTabs /> </div> </template> <script> import DxTabs from "devextreme-vue/tabs"; import Tabs from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { Tabs.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); }); export default { components: { DxTabs } } </script>
React
import dxTabs from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; import Tabs from "devextreme-react/tabs"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { dxTabs.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Tabs properties } }); }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <Tabs /> </div> ) }
dispose()
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myTabs").dxTabs("dispose"); $("#myTabs").remove();
Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-tabs ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-tabs>
Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template> <DxTabs ... v-if="condition"> </DxTabs> </template> <script> import DxTabs from 'devextreme-vue/tabs'; export default { components: { DxTabs } } </script>
React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react'; import Tabs from 'devextreme-react/tabs'; function DxTabs(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <Tabs ... > </Tabs> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxTabs shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

getDataSource()
Gets the DataSource instance.

getInstance(element)
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Tabs instance found in an element with the myTabs
ID:
// Modular approach import Tabs from "devextreme/ui/tabs"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myTabs"); let instance = Tabs.getInstance(element) as Tabs; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myTabs"); let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxTabs.getInstance(element);

on(eventName, eventHandler)
Use this method to subscribe to one of the events listed in the Events section.
See Also
on(events)
Use this method to subscribe to several events with one method call. Available events are listed in the Events section.
See Also
registerKeyHandler(key, handler)
A handler. Accepts the keydown event as the argument. It is a EventObject or a jQuery.Event when you use jQuery.
The key argument accepts one of the following values:
- "backspace"
- "tab"
- "enter"
- "escape"
- "pageUp"
- "pageDown"
- "end"
- "home"
- "leftArrow"
- "upArrow"
- "rightArrow"
- "downArrow"
- "del"
- "space"
- "F"
- "A"
- "asterisk"
- "minus"
A custom handler for a key cancels the default handler for this key.

repaint()
Renders the component again without reloading data. Use the method to update the component's markup and appearance dynamically.

method re-initializes the component with new settings, resetting its state and history.
