JavaScript/jQuery ProgressBar Methods

This section describes members used to manipulate the UI component.

beginUpdate()

Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.

The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

See Also

clear()

Resets the value property to the default value.

defaultOptions(rule)

Specifies the device-dependent default configuration properties for this component.

Parameters:
rule:

Object

The component's default device properties.

Object structure:
Name Type Description
device

Device

|

Function

Device parameters.
When you specify a function, get information about the current device from the argument. Return true if the properties should be applied to the device.

options

Object

Options to be applied.

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 ProgressBar UI component in an application executed on the desktop.

jQuery
JavaScript
DevExpress.ui.dxProgressBar.defaultOptions({ 
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the ProgressBar properties
    }
});
Angular
TypeScript
import ProgressBar, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    constructor () {
        ProgressBar.defaultOptions<Properties>({
            device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
            options: {
                // Here go the ProgressBar properties
            }
        });
    }
}
Vue
<template>
    <div>
        <DxProgressBar id="progressBar1" />
        <DxProgressBar id="progressBar2" />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import DxProgressBar from "devextreme-vue/progress-bar";
import ProgressBar from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";

ProgressBar.defaultOptions({
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the ProgressBar properties
    }
});

export default {
    components: {
        DxProgressBar
    }
}
</script>
React
import dxProgressBar from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";
import ProgressBar from "devextreme-react/progress-bar";

dxProgressBar.defaultOptions({
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the ProgressBar properties
    }
});

export default function App() {
    return (
        <div>
            <ProgressBar id="progressBar1" />
            <ProgressBar id="progressBar2" />
        </div>
    )
}

You can also set rules for multiple device types:

jQuery
JavaScript
const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    DevExpress.ui.dxProgressBar.defaultOptions({ 
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the ProgressBar properties
        }
    });
});
Angular
TypeScript
import ProgressBar, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    constructor () {
        const devicesConfig = [
            { deviceType: 'desktop' },
            { deviceType: 'tablet' },
            { deviceType: 'phone' },
        ];

        devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
            ProgressBar.defaultOptions<Properties>({
                device: deviceConfig,
                options: {
                    // Here go the ProgressBar properties
                }
            });
        });
    }
}
Vue
<template>
    <div>
        <DxProgressBar />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import DxProgressBar from "devextreme-vue/progress-bar";
import ProgressBar from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";

const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    ProgressBar.defaultOptions({
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the ProgressBar properties
        }
    });
});

export default {
    components: {
        DxProgressBar
    }
}
</script>
React
import dxProgressBar from "devextreme/ui/progress_bar";
import ProgressBar from "devextreme-react/progress-bar";

const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    dxProgressBar.defaultOptions({
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the ProgressBar properties
        }
    });
});

export default function App() {
    return (
        <div>
            <ProgressBar />
        </div>
    )
}

dispose()

Disposes of all the resources allocated to the ProgressBar instance.

jQuery

After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:

JavaScript
$("#myProgressBar").dxProgressBar("dispose");
$("#myProgressBar").remove();
Angular

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

app.component.html
<dx-progress-bar ...
    *ngIf="condition">
</dx-progress-bar>
Vue

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.vue
<template>
    <DxProgressBar ...
        v-if="condition">
    </DxProgressBar>
</template>

<script>
import DxProgressBar from 'devextreme-vue/progress-bar';

export default {
    components: {
        DxProgressBar
    }
}
</script>
React

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.js
import React from 'react';

import ProgressBar from 'devextreme-react/progress-bar';

function DxProgressBar(props) {
    if (!props.shouldRender) {
        return null;
    }

    return (
        <ProgressBar ... >    
        </ProgressBar>
    );
}

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <DxProgressBar shouldRender="condition" />
        );
    }
}
export default App;

element()

Gets the root UI component element.

Return Value:

HTMLElement | jQuery

An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.

See Also

endUpdate()

Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.

...
let element = document.getElementById("myProgressBar");
let instance = ProgressBar.getInstance(element) as ProgressBar;

// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("myProgressBar");
let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxProgressBar.getInstance(element);
