JavaScript/jQuery LinearGauge Methods
This section describes methods that can be used to manipulate the UI component.
See Also
beginUpdate()
Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.
See Also
dispose()
Disposes of all the resources allocated to the LinearGauge instance.
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myLinearGauge").dxLinearGauge("dispose"); $("#myLinearGauge").remove();
Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-linear-gauge ... *ngIf="condition"> </dx-linear-gauge>
Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template> <DxLinearGauge ... v-if="condition"> </DxLinearGauge> </template> <script> import DxLinearGauge from 'devextreme-vue/linear-gauge'; export default { components: { DxLinearGauge } } </script>
React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react'; import LinearGauge from 'devextreme-react/linear-gauge'; function DxLinearGauge(props) { if (!props.shouldRender) { return null; } return ( <LinearGauge ... > </LinearGauge> ); } class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <DxLinearGauge shouldRender="condition" /> ); } } export default App;
element()
Gets the root UI component element.
An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.
See Also
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

getInstance(element)
Gets the instance of a UI component found using its DOM node.
The UI component's instance.
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the LinearGauge instance found in an element with the myLinearGauge
ID:
// Modular approach import LinearGauge from "devextreme/viz/linear_gauge"; ... let element = document.getElementById("myLinearGauge"); let instance = LinearGauge.getInstance(element) as LinearGauge; // Non-modular approach let element = document.getElementById("myLinearGauge"); let instance = DevExpress.viz.dxLinearGauge.getInstance(element);

getSize()

Size
The current UI component size.
Returns an object with the following fields.
- width
The width of the UI component in pixels. - height
The height of the UI component in pixels.
See Also
hideLoadingIndicator()
Hides the loading indicator.
Although the loading indicator hides automatically once the UI component is ready, you can hide it from code at the required moment using this method.

This UI component's instance.
See Also
off(eventName)
Detaches all event handlers from a single event.
The event's name.
