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 Toast UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxToast.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Toast properties } });
Angular
import Toast from "devextreme/ui/toast"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { Toast.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Toast properties } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxToast id="toast1" /> <DxToast id="toast2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxToast from "devextreme-vue/toast"; import Toast from "devextreme/ui/toast"; Toast.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Toast properties } }); export default { components: { DxToast } } </script>
React
import React, {useEffect} from "react"; import dxToast from "devextreme/ui/toast"; import Toast from "devextreme-react/toast"; export default function App() { useEffect(() => { dxToast.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Toast properties } }) }); return ( <div> <Toast id="toast1" /> <Toast id="toast2" /> </div> ) }
dispose()
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myToast").dxToast("dispose"); $("#myToast").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-toast ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-toast>
Vue
<template> <DxToast ... v-if="condition"> </DxToast> </template> <script> import DxToast from 'devextreme-vue/toast'; export default { components: { DxToast } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Toast from 'devextreme-react/toast'; function DxToast(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <Toast ... > </Toast> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxToast shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;

getInstance(element)
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Toast instance found in an element with the myToast
ID:
// Modular approach import Toast from "devextreme/ui/toast"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myToast"); let instance = Toast.getInstance(element) as Toast; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myToast"); let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxToast.getInstance(element);

hide()
A Promise that is resolved after the UI component is hidden. It is a native Promise or a jQuery.Promise when you use jQuery.
registerKeyHandler(key, handler)

The key argument accepts one of the following values:

show()
A Promise that is resolved after the UI component is shown. It is a native Promise or a jQuery.Promise when you use jQuery.
toggle(showing)
A Promise that is resolved with true if the UI component is shown or false if it is hidden. It is a native Promise or a jQuery.Promise when you use jQuery.
You can use the toggle(showing) method instead of the show() and hide() methods. In this case, pass true or false as the method parameter to show or hide the UI component.
The UI component is automatically hidden after the time specified in the displayTime property.
