beginUpdate()
Prevents the widget from refreshing until the endUpdate() method is called.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods prevent the widget from excessive updates when you are changing multiple widget settings at once. After the beginUpdate() method is called, the widget does not update its UI until the endUpdate() method is called.

defaultOptions(rule)
defaultOptions is a static method that the widget class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default options for all instances of the ButtonGroup widget in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxButtonGroup.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the ButtonGroup options } });
Angular
import ButtonGroup from "devextreme/ui/button_group"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { ButtonGroup.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the ButtonGroup options } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <dx-button-group id="buttonGroup1" /> <dx-button-group id="buttonGroup2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxButtonGroup from "devextreme-vue/button-group"; import ButtonGroup from "devextreme/ui/button_group"; ButtonGroup.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the ButtonGroup options } }); export default { components: { DxButtonGroup } } </script>
React
import React from "react"; import dxButtonGroup from "devextreme/ui/button_group"; import ButtonGroup from "devextreme-react/button-group"; class App extends React.Component { render () { dxButtonGroup.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the ButtonGroup options } }) return ( <div> <ButtonGroup id="buttonGroup1" /> <ButtonGroup id="buttonGroup2" /> </div> ) } } export default App;
dispose()
The following code disposes of an ButtonGroup instance that corresponds to the element ID (or reference variable in Angular) and removes the element from the DOM:
jQuery
$("#myButtonGroup").dxButtonGroup("dispose"); $("#myButtonGroup").remove();
Angular
<dx-button-group #buttonGroupVar id="myButtonGroup"></dx-button-group>
import { ..., ViewChild } from "@angular/core"; import { DxButtonGroupComponent } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { @ViewChild("buttonGroupVar") buttonGroup: DxButtonGroupComponent; removeButtonGroup (e) { this.buttonGroup.instance.dispose(); document.getElementById("myButtonGroup").remove(); } }
endUpdate()
Refreshes the widget after a call of the beginUpdate() method.

ID:
// Modular approach import ButtonGroup from "devextreme/ui/button_group"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myButtonGroup"); let instance = ButtonGroup.getInstance(element) as ButtonGroup; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myButtonGroup"); let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxButtonGroup.getInstance(element);
