    }
}

Vue

App.vue

<template>
    <DxLoadPanel ... 
        :container="containerElement"
    >
    </DxLoadPanel>
</template>
<script>
import { DxLoadPanel } from 'devextreme-vue/load-panel';

export default {
    components: {
        DxLoadPanel
    },
    data() {
        return {
            containerElement: null

React

App.js

import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import LoadPanel from 'devextreme-react/load-panel';
// ...
function App() {

    useEffect(() => {
        setContainerElement(document.getElementById('containerElement'));
    }, []);

        <LoadPanel ... 
            container={containerElement}
        >
        </LoadPanel>
    );
}

The UI component defines the default container on its initialization. This default container can be one of the following (if the element is absent, the component selects the next one):

color swatch container
.dx-viewport
body

If you set this property to a specific element, the shading applies to this element. The LoadPanel calculates its size relative to the element.

IMPORTANT

Use the wrapperAttr property instead.

Copies your custom CSS classes from the root element to the wrapper element.

Type:

Default Value: false

This property allows you to use CSS for wrapper element configuration. You can customize the shade, resize, and drag zones.

The following markup illustrates relations between wrapper and root elements when you set copyRootClassesToWrapper to true:

    <!-- The following element is the root element on which the component is initialized. -->
    <!-- Specify classes to be copied to the wrapper element here. -->
    <div id="loadPanel" class="custom-class" ... ></div>

    <!-- The following element is the wrapper element. -->
    <!-- Custom classes are automatically copied from the root element. -->
    <div class="dx-overlay-wrapper dx-loadpanel-wrapper custom-class" ... > 

        <!-- The following element contains component content. -->

            <!-- ... -->
        </div>
    </div>
</body>
