The PolarChart is a UI component that visualizes data in a polar coordinate system.

In this system, each point on a plane is determined by the distance from the center (the point's value) and the angle from a fixed direction (the point's argument). To understand how a chart is displayed in a polar coordinate system, imagine how it would be displayed in a rectangular coordinate system and then round off the argument axis in your mind.

UI Events

The events used to handle user interaction with UI elements.

DevExtreme provides UI events for processing a user's interaction with a specific UI element. The DevExpress.events namespace exposes an API to work with the UI events.

The following code shows how to attach, trigger and then detach a dxhold event handler from a page element with the target ID. The timeout parameter specifies how long the target should be held to allow the handler to execute:

jQuery
JavaScript
var dxholdHandler = function(jQueryEvent) {
    alert(`The ${$(jQueryEvent.target).text()} element is being held for ${jQueryEvent.data.timeout} ms.`);
};

$("#target").on("dxhold", { timeout: 1000 }, dxholdHandler); 
$("#target").trigger("dxhold");
$("#target").off("dxhold", dxholdHandler);

See jQuery documentation for details.

Angular
JavaScript
import { on, trigger, off } from "devextreme/events";
// ...
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {
    ngAfterViewInit() {
        const dxholdHandler = (event) => {
            alert(`The ${event.target.textContent} element is being held for ${event.data.timeout} ms.`);
            return true; // true - continues event propagation, false - stops
        }
        const target: HTMLElement = document.getElementById("target");

        on(target, "dxhold", { timeout: 1000 }, dxholdHandler);
        trigger(target, "dxhold");
        off(target, "dxhold", dxholdHandler);
    }
}
Knockout
HTML
JavaScript
<div id="target" data-bind="dxhold: { execute: dxholdHandler, timeout: 1000 }">
    Target element
</div>
var viewModel = {
    dxholdHandler: function(viewModel, jQueryEvent) {
        alert(`The ${$(jQueryEvent.target).text()} element is being held for ${jQueryEvent.data.timeout} ms.`);
    }
}
NOTE
Knockout does not provide an API to unsubscribe from an event.

See Knockout documentation for details.

AngularJS
HTML
JavaScript
<div id="target" dx-hold="{ execute: 'dxholdHandler($event)', timeout: 1000 }">
    Target element
</div>
angular.module("DemoApp", ["dx"])
    .controller("DemoController", function DemoController($scope) {
        $scope.dxholdHandler = function(jQueryEvent) {
            alert(`The ${$(jQueryEvent.target).text()} element is being held for ${jQueryEvent.data.timeout} ms.`);
        }
    });
NOTE
AngularJS does not provide an API to unsubscribe from an event.
