Angular TreeMap API

The TreeMap is a widget that displays hierarchical data by using nested rectangles.

import { DxTreeMapModule } from "devextreme-angular"
Type: DxTreeMapTypes.default

In the TreeMap widget, hierarchical data is represented by a set of nested rectangles whose sizes are proportional to the visualized values. TreeMap operates with plain and hierarchical data sources. Also, it can visualize a hierarchy reconstructed from a flat data source.

TreeMap provides three layout algorithms out-of-the-box along with the capability to implement your own algorithm. In addition, the widget includes API methods that enable you to implement the drill down feature. Moreover, TreeMap supports all interactive features available in other DevExtreme Data Visualization Widgets: click, hover and selection.

Node

This section describes the Node object, which represents a treemap node.

Node objects are accessible within certain event handlers, for example, onNodesInitialized, onNodesRendering, etc. Also, you can obtain these objects using the getRootNode() and getCurrentNode() methods.
