JavaScript/jQuery Data Editors - Editor Appearance Variants

DevExtreme Editors include the following appearance customization properties:

  • stylingMode: "filled" | "outlined" | "underlined"
    Specifies the style used for text fields.

  • labelMode: "static" | "floating" | "hidden" | "outside"
    Specifies label display mode.

$(() => { const stylingMode = 'outlined'; const labelMode = 'static'; DevExpress.config({ editorStylingMode: stylingMode, }); const name = $('#name').dxTextBox({ value: 'Olivia Peyton', placeholder: 'Type...', inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'Name' }, label: 'Name', labelMode, }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxTextBox('instance'); const place = $('#address').dxTextBox({ placeholder: 'Type...', inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'Address' }, label: 'Address', labelMode, }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxTextBox('instance'); const birthDate = $('#birth-date').dxDateBox({ label: 'Birth Date', placeholder: 'Select...', value: '6/3/1981', inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'Birth Date' }, labelMode, }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxDateBox('instance'); const hireDate = $('#hire-date').dxDateBox({ label: 'Hire Date', placeholder: 'Select...', inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'Hire Date' }, labelMode, }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxDateBox('instance'); const range = $('#vacation-dates').dxDateRangeBox({ startDate: '6/3/2023', startDateLabel: 'Start Vacation Date', endDate: '12/3/2023', endDateLabel: 'End Vacation Date', labelMode, }).dxDateRangeBox('instance'); const state = $('#state').dxSelectBox({ items: states, inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'State' }, placeholder: 'Select...', label: 'State', labelMode, validationMessagePosition: 'left', }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxSelectBox('instance'); const phone = $('#phone').dxTextBox({ label: 'Phone', mask: '+1 (000) 000-0000', inputAttr: { 'aria-label': 'Phone' }, maskRules: { X: /[02-9]/, }, labelMode, }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', }], }).dxTextBox('instance'); const notes = $('#notes').dxTextArea({ value: 'Olivia loves to sell.

To specify styles globally (as an alternative to stylingMode), set the editorStylingMode property instead (editorStylingMode applies the same style to all editors on the page).

In this demo, you can use the "Styling Mode/Label Mode" drop down box (in the Options section) to modify styling and label modes.
