Vue Box Methods
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.

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 Box UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxBox.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Box properties } });
Angular
import Box, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/box"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { Box.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxBox id="box1" /> <DxBox id="box2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxBox from "devextreme-vue/box"; import Box from "devextreme/ui/box"; Box.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); export default { components: { DxBox } } </script>
React
import dxBox from "devextreme/ui/box"; import Box from "devextreme-react/box"; dxBox.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <Box id="box1" /> <Box id="box2" /> </div> ) }
You can also set rules for multiple device types:
jQuery
const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { DevExpress.ui.dxBox.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); });
Angular
import Box, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/box"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { Box.defaultOptions<Properties>({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxBox /> </div> </template> <script> import DxBox from "devextreme-vue/box"; import Box from "devextreme/ui/box"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { Box.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); }); export default { components: { DxBox } } </script>
React
import dxBox from "devextreme/ui/box"; import Box from "devextreme-react/box"; const devicesConfig = [ { deviceType: 'desktop' }, { deviceType: 'tablet' }, { deviceType: 'phone' }, ]; devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => { dxBox.defaultOptions({ device: deviceConfig, options: { // Here go the Box properties } }); }); export default function App() { return ( <div> <Box /> </div> ) }
dispose()
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myBox").dxBox("dispose"); $("#myBox").remove();
Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-box ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-box>
Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template> <DxBox ... v-if="condition"> </DxBox> </template> <script> import DxBox from 'devextreme-vue/box'; export default { components: { DxBox } } </script>
React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react'; import Box from 'devextreme-react/box'; function DxBox(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <Box ... > </Box> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxBox shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

getDataSource()
Gets the DataSource instance.

getInstance(element)
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Box instance found in an element with the myBox
ID:
// Modular approach import Box from "devextreme/ui/box"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myBox"); let instance = Box.getInstance(element) as Box; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myBox"); let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxBox.getInstance(element);

on(eventName, eventHandler)
Use this method to subscribe to one of the events listed in the Events section.
See Also
on(events)
Use this method to subscribe to several events with one method call. Available events are listed in the Events section.

repaint()
Renders the component again without reloading data. Use the method to update the component's markup and appearance dynamically.
The repaint()
method re-initializes the component with new settings, resetting its state and history.
