JavaScript/jQuery SlideOutView Methods
This section describes members used to manipulate the UI component.
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.

content()
Gets the UI component's content.
An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.
defaultOptions(rule)
Specifies the device-dependent default configuration properties for this component.

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 SlideOutView UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxSlideOutView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the SlideOutView properties
}
});Angular
import SlideOutView from "devextreme/ui/slide_out_view";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
SlideOutView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the SlideOutView properties
}
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxSlideOutView id="slideOutView1" />
<DxSlideOutView id="slideOutView2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxSlideOutView from "devextreme-vue/slide-out-view";
import SlideOutView from "devextreme/ui/slide_out_view";
SlideOutView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the SlideOutView properties
}
});
export default {
components: {
DxSlideOutView
}
}
</script>React
import React, {useEffect} from "react";
import dxSlideOutView from "devextreme/ui/slide_out_view";
import SlideOutView from "devextreme-react/slide-out-view";
export default function App() {
useEffect(() => {
dxSlideOutView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the SlideOutView properties
}
})
});
return (
<div>
<SlideOutView id="slideOutView1" />
<SlideOutView id="slideOutView2" />
</div>
)
}dispose()
Disposes of all the resources allocated to the SlideOutView instance.
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#mySlideOutView").dxSlideOutView("dispose");
$("#mySlideOutView").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-slide-out-view ...
*ngIf="condition">
</dx-slide-out-view>Vue
<template>
<DxSlideOutView ...
v-if="condition">
</DxSlideOutView>
</template>
<script>
import DxSlideOutView from 'devextreme-vue/slide-out-view';
export default {
components: {
DxSlideOutView
}
}
</script>React
import React from 'react';
import SlideOutView from 'devextreme-react/slide-out-view';
function DxSlideOutView(props) {
if (!props.shouldRender) {
return null;
}
return (
<SlideOutView ... >
</SlideOutView>
);
}
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<DxSlideOutView shouldRender="condition" />
);
}
}
export default App;See Also
element()

An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.
getInstance(element)
Gets the instance of a UI component found using its DOM node.

// Modular approach
import SlideOutView from "devextreme/ui/slide_out_view";
...
let element = document.getElementById("mySlideOutView");
let instance = SlideOutView.getInstance(element) as SlideOutView;
// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("mySlideOutView");
let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxSlideOutView.getInstance(element);See Also
