JavaScript/jQuery TileView - items

An array of items displayed by the UI component.

Type:

Array<String | dxTileViewItem | any>

Raised Events: onOptionChanged

The items array can contain:

  • Strings
  • Objects with fields described in this section
  • Objects with any other fields. In this case, specify the itemTemplate.

If you need to update the UI component items, reassign the entire items array as shown in the following example:

JavaScript
tileViewInstance.option('items', newItems);

As an alternative to items, you can use the dataSource property. It accepts the DataSource object, whose underlying stores provide an API that allows you to update individual items without reassigning the entire item collection.

NOTE
Do not use the items property if you use dataSource, and vice versa.

disabled

Specifies whether the UI component item responds to user interaction.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false

heightRatio

Specifies a multiplier for the baseItemHeight property value (for the purpose of obtaining the actual item height).

Type:

Number

Default Value: 1

html

Specifies the HTML markup to be inserted into the item element.

Type:

String

The TileView component evaluates the html property's value. This evaluation, however, makes the TileView potentially vulnerable to XSS attacks. To guard against these attacks, encode the HTML markup before you assign it to the html property. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Potentially Vulnerable API - html.

You can use the text property as a safe alternative.

template

Specifies a template that should be used to render this item only.

Type:

template

Template Data:

CollectionWidgetItem

The item object to be rendered.

jQuery

This property supports the following values:

  • A template container as a jQuery object or DOM Node
  • A function that returns a template container (as a jQuery object or DOM node)
