DevExtreme React - Change the Orientation
To arrange items on the menu panel in a row (horizontally) or in a column (vertically), use the orientation option.
jQuery
$(function () { $("#menuContainer").dxMenu({ items: menuItems, orientation: "horizontal" // or "vertical" }); });
Angular
<dx-menu [items]="menuItems" orientation="horizontal"> <!-- or "vertical" --> </dx-menu>
import { DxMenuModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { menuItems = [ ... ]; } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxMenuModule ], // ... })
If you need to shift the menu panel towards the bottom or the left side, specify padding for the <div>
that contains the widget. For example, the following code shifts the widget towards the bottom.
<div id="menuContainer" style="padding-top:500px"></div>
When the widget is positioned at the bottom or at the left side, you may want to change the direction in which the drop-down menus open. For this purpose, set the submenuDirection option to "rightOrTop".
jQuery
$(function () { $("#menuContainer").dxMenu({ items: menuItems, orientation: "horizontal", // or "vertical" submenuDirection: "rightToTop" }); });
Angular
<dx-menu [items]="menuItems" submenuDirection="rightToTop" orientation="horizontal"> <!-- or "vertical" --> </dx-menu>
import { DxMenuModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { menuItems = [ ... ]; } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxMenuModule ], // ... })
