Set this object to null or undefined to disable animation.

The function passed to this option enables you to specify a custom condition for widget closing. For instance, you can prevent closing until a user clicks a certain element.

var widgetOptions = {
    // ...
    closeOnOutsideClick: function(e) {
        return e.target === $("#someElement").get()[0];
    }
}

The closeOnOutsideClick function is called when a user clicks the widget or outside it.

The default container is defined during the widget's initialization. It is the viewport, or the body element if the viewport is not found, or the parent element if the previous two are absent.

The specified container is shaded when the LoadPanel is visible; the LoadPanel inherits styles from the container and is scrolled with it.

This option accepts a value of one of the following types:

  JavaScript

  height: function() {
      return window.innerHeight / 1.5;
  }

This option accepts one of the following:

• Position configuration object
  An object that specifies the widget's position.

• String
  A shortcut listed in the accepted values. Positions the widget relative to the window.

• Function
  A function that returns one of the above. Use it to position the widget based on a condition.

Use the PositionAlignment enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: Bottom, Center, Left, LeftBottom, LeftTop, RightBottom, RightTop, and Top.

When this option is set to true, the widget text flows from right to left, and the layout of elements is reversed. To switch the entire application/site to the right-to-left representation, assign true to the rtlEnabled field of the object passed to the DevExpress.config(config) method.

DevExpress.config({
    rtlEnabled: true
});

Shading applies to the first specified element in the following sequence: container => position.of => window

This option makes sense only if the shading option is set to true.

If this option is set to true, a message is displayed and a load indicator turns in a circle while the view's content is loaded. Set this option to false to display only the text message. This can help avoid problems with animation used for the load indicator when running on a slow device.

You can show and hide the widget by changing the value of an observable variable passed to this option.

The widget is automatically hidden after the time specified in the displayTime option.
