hoverStateEnabled

Specifies whether the UI component changes its state when a user pauses on it.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false

itemComponent

An alias for the itemTemplate property specified in React. Accepts a custom component. Refer to Using a Custom Component for more information.

items

An array of items displayed by the UI component.

Type:

Array<String | CollectionWidgetItem | Object>

Raised Events: onOptionChanged

Generally, the array of items is auto-generated when a validation result is ready. And if you set a custom array of items, it will be overridden by the auto-generated array. So use this property to read the current array of items. Alternatively, you can set the array of items generated by a custom validation engine.

itemTemplate

Specifies a custom template for items.

Type:

template

Template Data:

Object

The item object to be rendered.

Default Name: 'item'

            if(e.name === "changedProperty") {
                // handle the property change here
            }
        }
    });
});
Angular

app.component.ts

<dx-validation-summary ...
    (onOptionChanged)="handlePropertyChange($event)"> 
</dx-validation-summary>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; 

@Component({ 
    selector: 'app-root', 
    templateUrl: './app.component.html', 
    styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] 
}) 

export class AppComponent { 
    // ...
    handlePropertyChange(e) {
        if(e.name === "changedProperty") { 
            // handle the property change here
        }
    }
}

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; 
import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; 
import { DxValidationSummaryModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; 

@NgModule({ 
    declarations: [

    ],

        <ValidationSummary ...

        />        
    ); 
}

validationGroup

Specifies the validation group for which summary should be generated.

Type:

String

In the Knockout approach, the ValidationSummary UI component should be added to the div element representing the ValidationGroup component. In this instance, you do not have to specify the validationGroup property for the ValidationSummary UI component.

If you use the JQuery approach, the validationGroup property should be specified for the ValidationSummary UI component to generate a summary for a particular validation group. Assign the validation group name that is specified for the validationGroup property of the validators that extend the editors to be validated.
