JavaScript/jQuery Drawer Methods
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.

Vue
<template> <div> <DxDrawer id="drawer1" /> <DxDrawer id="drawer2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxDrawer from "devextreme-vue/drawer"; import Drawer from "devextreme/ui/drawer"; Drawer.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Drawer properties } }); export default { components: { DxDrawer } } </script>

import React from 'react'; import Drawer from 'devextreme-react/drawer'; function DxDrawer(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <Drawer ... > </Drawer> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxDrawer shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
