JavaScript/jQuery TreeView Methods
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.

jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxTreeView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the TreeView properties
}
});Angular
import TreeView, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tree_view";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
TreeView.defaultOptions<Properties>({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the TreeView properties
}
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxTreeView id="treeView1" />
<DxTreeView id="treeView2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxTreeView from "devextreme-vue/tree-view";
import TreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view";
TreeView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the TreeView properties
}
});
export default {
components: {
DxTreeView
}
}
</script>React
import dxTreeView from "devextreme/ui/tree_view";
import TreeView from "devextreme-react/tree-view";
dxTreeView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the TreeView properties
}
});
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<TreeView id="treeView1" />
<TreeView id="treeView2" />
</div>
)
}dispose()
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myTreeView").dxTreeView("dispose");
$("#myTreeView").remove();Angular

components: {
DxTreeView

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react';
import TreeView from 'devextreme-react/tree-view';
function DxTreeView(props) {
if (!props.shouldRender) {
return null;
}
return (
<TreeView ... >
</TreeView>
);
}
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<DxTreeView shouldRender="condition" />
);
}
}
export default App;endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.

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