The widget offers a user a different editor for entering a value depending on the field's dataType: Calendar, TextBox, SelectBox, etc. You can customize automatically created editors using this function.

The widget offers a user different editors for entering a value depending on the field's dataType: Calendar, TextBox, SelectBox, and so on. Use this function to customize those default editors or substitute them for other editors.

In the following code, a default editor is replaced with the DevExtreme TextArea widget. Note that the widget's onValueChanged function is overridden, and its declaration ends with the setValue(newValue, newText) method's call. This method updates the value.

$(function() {
    $("#filterBuilder").dxFilterBuilder({
        // ...
        onEditorPreparing: function (e) {
            if (e.dataField == "description") {
                e.editorName = "dxTextArea"; 
                e.editorOptions.showClearButton = true;
                e.editorOptions.onValueChanged = function(event) {
                    var value = event.value;
                    e.setValue(value.toLowerCase()); 
                }
            }
        }
    });
});

import { DxFilterBuilderModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    onEditorPreparing (e) { 
        if (e.dataField == "description") {
            e.editorName = "dxTextArea"; 
            e.editorOptions.showClearButton = true;
            e.editorOptions.onValueChanged = (event) => {
                let value = event.value;
                e.setValue(value.toLowerCase()); 
            }
        }
    }
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxFilterBuilderModule
    ],
    // ...
})

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
});
