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

defaultOptions(rule)
defaultOptions is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default properties for all instances of the Map UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxMap.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Map properties
}
});Angular
import Map from "devextreme/ui/map";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
Map.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Map properties
}
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxMap id="map1" />
<DxMap id="map2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxMap from "devextreme-vue/map";
import Map from "devextreme/ui/map";
Map.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Map properties
}
});
export default {
components: {
DxMap
}
}
</script>React
import React, {useEffect} from "react";
import dxMap from "devextreme/ui/map";
import Map from "devextreme-react/map";
export default function App() {
useEffect(() => {
dxMap.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Map properties
}
})
});
return (
<div>
<Map id="map1" />
<Map id="map2" />
</div>
)
}dispose()
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myMap").dxMap("dispose");
$("#myMap").remove();Use this method only if the UI component was created with jQuery or pure JavaScript. In Angular, Vue, and React, use conditional rendering:
Angular
<dx-map ...
*ngIf="condition">
</dx-map>Vue
<template>
<DxMap ...
v-if="condition">
</DxMap>
</template>
<script>
import DxMap from 'devextreme-vue/map';
export default {
components: {
DxMap
}
}
</script>React
import React from 'react';
import Map from 'devextreme-react/map';
function DxMap(props) {
if (!props.shouldRender) {
return null;
}
return (
<Map ... >
</Map>
);
}
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<DxMap shouldRender="condition" />
);
}
}
export default App;See Also
getInstance(element)
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Map instance found in an element with the myMap ID:
// Modular approach
import Map from "devextreme/ui/map";
...
let element = document.getElementById("myMap");
let instance = Map.getInstance(element) as Map;
// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("myMap");
let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxMap.getInstance(element);See Also
registerKeyHandler(key, handler)
A handler. Accepts the keydown event as the argument. It is a EventObject or a jQuery.Event when you use jQuery.
The key argument accepts one of the following values:
- "backspace"
- "tab"
- "enter"
- "escape"
- "pageUp"
- "pageDown"
- "end"
- "home"
- "leftArrow"
- "upArrow"
- "rightArrow"
- "downArrow"
- "del"
- "space"
- "F"
- "A"
