JavaScript/jQuery TileView Options

See Also

• Configure a Widget: Angular | Vue | React | jQuery | AngularJS | Knockout | ASP.NET MVC 5 | ASP.NET Core

The value of this option will be passed to the accesskey attribute of the HTML element that underlies the widget.

This option is used when the widget is displayed on a platform whose guidelines include the active state change for widgets.

The actual item height equals the heightRatio field value of an item multiplied by the value of this option.

The actual item width equals the widthRatio value of an item multiplied by the value of this option.

If you use DevExtreme ASP.NET MVC Controls, refer to the Bind Controls to Data article.

The TileView works with collections of string values or objects.

Depending on your data source, bind the TileView to data as follows. If the data source provides objects, also specify the itemTemplate. You can skip this part if the objects contain fields described in the items section.

• Data Array
  Assign the array to the dataSource option.

• Read-Only Data in JSON Format
  Set the dataSource option to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data.

• OData
  Implement an ODataStore.

• Web API, PHP, MongoDB
  Use one of the following extensions to enable the server to process data according to the protocol DevExtreme widgets use:

  • DevExtreme.AspNet.Data
  • DevExtreme-PHP-Data
  • devextreme-query-mongodb

  Then, use the createStore method to configure access to the server on the client as shown below. This method is part of DevExtreme.AspNet.Data.

  jQuery

  JavaScript

  $(function() {
      let serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service";
      $("#tileViewContainer").dxTileView({
          // ...
          dataSource: DevExpress.data.AspNet.createStore({
              key: "ID",
              loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction",
              insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction",
              updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction",
              deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction"
          })
      })
  });

          DxTileView
      },
      data() {

  React

  App.js

  import React from 'react';
  import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
  import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';
  
  import CustomStore from 'devextreme/data/custom_store';
  import { createStore } from 'devextreme-aspnet-data-nojquery';
  import TileView from 'devextreme-react/tile-view';
  
  const serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service";
  const store = createStore({
      key: "ID",
      loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction",
      insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction",
      updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction",
      deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction"
  });
  
  class App extends React.Component {
      render() {
          return (
              <TileView ...
                  dataSource={store} />
          );
      }
  }
  export default App;

• Any other data source
  Implement a CustomStore.

Regardless of the data source on the input, the TileView always wraps it in the DataSource object. This object allows you to sort, filter, group, and perform other data shaping operations. To get its instance, call the getDataSource() method.

Use the Orientation 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: Horizontal and Vertical.

View Demo

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

• Number
  The height in pixels.

• String
  A CSS-accepted measurement of height. For example, "55px", "80%", "inherit".

• Function
  A function returning either of the above. For example:

  JavaScript

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

The items array can contain:

• Strings
• Objects with fields described in this section
• Objects with any other fields. In this case, specify the itemTemplate.

If you need to update the widget items, reassign the entire items array as shown in the following example:

tileViewInstance.option('items', newItems);

As an alternative to items, you can use the dataSource option. It accepts the DataSource object, whose underlying stores provide an API that allows you to update individual items without reassigning the entire item collection.

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
});

The value of this option will be passed to the tabindex attribute of the HTML element that underlies the widget.

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

• Number
  The width in pixels.

• String
  A CSS-accepted measurement of width. For example, "55px", "80%", "auto", "inherit".

• Function
  A function returning either of the above. For example:

  JavaScript

  width: function() {
      return window.innerWidth / 1.5;
  }
