The customizeChart, customizeSeries, and processCell fields of the integrationOptions object are functions. They accept arguments whose structure is described below.

customizeChart

JavaScript

customizeChart: function (chartOptions) {
    // Change chart properties here
    return chartOptions; // This line is optional
}

The chartOptions object has the following structure:

Field name	Type	Description
valueAxis	Array	Allows you to customize the automatically-created value axes. Each object in this array can contain fields described in the valueAxis property description. When this array holds several objects, use their name field to identify the axis.
panes	Array	Allows you to customize the automatically-created panes. Each object in this array can contain fields described in the panes property description. When this array holds several objects, use their name field to identify the pane.

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 PivotGrid UI component in an application executed on the desktop.

jQuery

JavaScript

DevExpress.ui.dxPivotGrid.defaultOptions({ 
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the PivotGrid properties
    }
});

Angular

TypeScript

import PivotGrid, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    constructor () {
        PivotGrid.defaultOptions<Properties>({
            device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
            options: {
                // Here go the PivotGrid properties
            }
        });
    }
}

Vue

<template>
    <div>
        <DxPivotGrid id="pivotGrid1" />
        <DxPivotGrid id="pivotGrid2" />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import DxPivotGrid from "devextreme-vue/pivot-grid";
import PivotGrid from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";

PivotGrid.defaultOptions({
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the PivotGrid properties
    }
});

export default {
    components: {
        DxPivotGrid
    }
}
</script>

React

import dxPivotGrid from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";
import PivotGrid from "devextreme-react/pivot-grid";

dxPivotGrid.defaultOptions({
    device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
    options: {
        // Here go the PivotGrid properties
    }
});

export default function App() {
    return (
        <div>
            <PivotGrid id="pivotGrid1" />
            <PivotGrid id="pivotGrid2" />
        </div>
    )
}

You can also set rules for multiple device types:

jQuery

JavaScript

const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    DevExpress.ui.dxPivotGrid.defaultOptions({ 
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the PivotGrid properties
        }
    });
});

Angular

TypeScript

import PivotGrid, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    constructor () {
        const devicesConfig = [
            { deviceType: 'desktop' },
            { deviceType: 'tablet' },
            { deviceType: 'phone' },
        ];

        devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
            PivotGrid.defaultOptions<Properties>({
                device: deviceConfig,
                options: {
                    // Here go the PivotGrid properties
                }
            });
        });
    }
}

Vue

<template>
    <div>
        <DxPivotGrid />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import DxPivotGrid from "devextreme-vue/pivot-grid";
import PivotGrid from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";

const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    PivotGrid.defaultOptions({
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the PivotGrid properties
        }
    });
});

export default {
    components: {
        DxPivotGrid
    }
}
</script>

React

import dxPivotGrid from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid";
import PivotGrid from "devextreme-react/pivot-grid";

const devicesConfig = [
    { deviceType: 'desktop' },
    { deviceType: 'tablet' },
    { deviceType: 'phone' },
];

devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
    dxPivotGrid.defaultOptions({
        device: deviceConfig,
        options: {
            // Here go the PivotGrid properties
        }
    });
});

export default function App() {
    return (
        <div>
            <PivotGrid />
        </div>
    )
}

dispose()

Disposes of all the resources allocated to the PivotGrid instance.

jQuery

After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:

JavaScript

$("#myPivotGrid").dxPivotGrid("dispose");
$("#myPivotGrid").remove();

Angular

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

app.component.html

<dx-pivot-grid ...
    *ngIf="condition">
</dx-pivot-grid>

Vue

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.vue

<template>
    <DxPivotGrid ...
        v-if="condition">
    </DxPivotGrid>
</template>

<script>
import DxPivotGrid from 'devextreme-vue/pivot-grid';

export default {
    components: {
        DxPivotGrid
    }
}
</script>

React

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.js

import React from 'react';

import PivotGrid from 'devextreme-react/pivot-grid';

function DxPivotGrid(props) {
    if (!props.shouldRender) {
        return null;
    }

    return (
        <PivotGrid ... >    
        </PivotGrid>
    );
}

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <DxPivotGrid shouldRender="condition" />
        );
    }
}
export default App;
