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)
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 Menu UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxMenu.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Menu options } });
Angular
import Menu from "devextreme/ui/menu"; // ... export class AppComponent { constructor () { Menu.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Menu options } }); } }
Vue
<template> <div> <DxMenu id="menu1" /> <DxMenu id="menu2" /> </div> </template> <script> import DxMenu from "devextreme-vue/menu"; import Menu from "devextreme/ui/menu"; Menu.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Menu options } }); export default { components: { DxMenu } } </script>
React
import React from "react"; import dxMenu from "devextreme/ui/menu"; import Menu from "devextreme-react/menu"; class App extends React.Component { render () { dxMenu.defaultOptions({ device: { deviceType: "desktop" }, options: { // Here go the Menu options } }) return ( <div> <Menu id="menu1" /> <Menu id="menu2" /> </div> ) } } export default App;
dispose()
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myMenu").dxMenu("dispose"); $("#myMenu").remove();
Use this method only if the UI component was created with jQuery or pure JavaScript. In Angular, Vue, and React, use conditional rendering:
Angular
<dx-menu ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-menu>
Vue
<template> <DxMenu ... v-if="condition"> </DxMenu> </template> <script> import DxMenu from 'devextreme-vue/menu'; export default { components: { DxMenu } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Menu from 'devextreme-react/menu'; function DxMenu(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <Menu ... > </Menu> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxMenu shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
