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)

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

|

Array<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 Gantt UI component in an application executed on the desktop.

jQuery
JavaScript
DevExpress.ui.dxGantt.defaultOptions({ 
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the Gantt properties
    }
});

Parameters:
element:

Element

jQuery

The UI component's container.

Return Value:

Object

The UI component's instance.

getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Gantt instance found in an element with the myGantt ID:

// Modular approach
import Gantt from "devextreme/ui/gantt";
...
let element = document.getElementById("myGantt");
let instance = Gantt.getInstance(element) as Gantt;

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