JavaScript/jQuery PivotGridFieldChooser Options
This section describes the configuration properties of the PivotGridFieldChooser UI component.
See Also
accessKey
Specifies the shortcut key that sets focus on the UI component.
The value of this property will be passed to the accesskey
attribute of the HTML element that underlies the UI component.
activeStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component changes its visual state as a result of user interaction.
The UI component switches to the active state when users press down the primary mouse button. When this property is set to true, the CSS rules for the active state apply. You can change these rules to customize the component.
Use this property when you display the component on a platform whose guidelines include the active state change for UI components.
allowSearch
Specifies whether the field chooser allows search operations in the "All Fields" section.
applyChangesMode
Specifies when to apply changes made in the UI component to the PivotGrid.
The following modes are available:
"instantly"
Applies changes immediately."onDemand"
Applies or cancels changes only when this is requested from the API - by calling the applyChanges() or cancelChanges() method or by changing the state object.
dataSource
The data source of a PivotGrid UI component.
It is important for the data source of the PivotGridFieldChooser to be the same as the data source of its PivotGrid UI component. This will allow the field chooser to manage data in the pivot grid. Use the PivotGrid's getDataSource method to acquire its data source.
disabled
Specifies whether the UI component responds to user interaction.
elementAttr
Specifies the global attributes to be attached to the UI component's container element.
jQuery
$(function(){ $("#pivotGridFieldChooserContainer").dxPivotGridFieldChooser({ // ... elementAttr: { id: "elementId", class: "class-name" } }); });
Angular
<dx-pivot-grid-field-chooser ... [elementAttr]="{ id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' }"> </dx-pivot-grid-field-chooser>
import { DxPivotGridFieldChooserModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { // ... } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxPivotGridFieldChooserModule ], // ... })
Vue
<template> <DxPivotGridFieldChooser ... :element-attr="pivotGridFieldChooserAttributes"> </DxPivotGridFieldChooser> </template> <script> import DxPivotGridFieldChooser from 'devextreme-vue/pivot-grid-field-chooser'; export default { components: { DxPivotGridFieldChooser }, data() { return { pivotGridFieldChooserAttributes: { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import PivotGridFieldChooser from 'devextreme-react/pivot-grid-field-chooser'; class App extends React.Component { pivotGridFieldChooserAttributes = { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } render() { return ( <PivotGridFieldChooser ... elementAttr={this.pivotGridFieldChooserAttributes}> </PivotGridFieldChooser> ); } } export default App;
encodeHtml
Specifies whether HTML tags are displayed as plain text or applied to the values of the header filter.
When true, the component displays HTML tags as plain text; when false, the component applies them to the header filter values. If you disable this property, malicious code can be executed. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Potentially Vulnerable API - encodeHtml.
focusStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component can be focused using keyboard navigation.
headerFilter
Configures the header filter feature.
A header filter allows a user to filter individual field's values by including or excluding them from the applied filter. Cicking a header filter icon invokes a popup menu displaying all the unique field values.
Assign true to the allowFiltering property to make the icons visible.
The user's filtering preferences are saved in the filterValues property. The header filter's Select All checkbox changes the filterType property.
height
Specifies the UI component's height.
This property accepts a value of one of the following types:
Number
The height in pixels.String
A CSS-accepted measurement of height. For example,"55px"
,"20vh"
,"80%"
,"inherit"
.
hint
Specifies text for a hint that appears when a user pauses on the UI component.
hoverStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component changes its state when a user pauses on it.
layout
Specifies the field chooser layout.
The image below shows different layout types.
The following abbreviations are used on the image.
- A — All Fields
- F — Filter Fields
- R — Row Fields
- C — Column Fields
- D — Data Fields

Angular
<dx-pivot-grid-field-chooser ... (onOptionChanged)="handlePropertyChange($event)"> </dx-pivot-grid-field-chooser>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { // ... handlePropertyChange(e) { if(e.name === "changedProperty") { // handle the property change here } } }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxPivotGridFieldChooserModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxPivotGridFieldChooserModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxPivotGridFieldChooser ... @option-changed="handlePropertyChange" /> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxPivotGridFieldChooser from 'devextreme-vue/pivot-grid-field-chooser'; export default { components: { DxPivotGridFieldChooser }, // ... methods: { handlePropertyChange: function(e) { if(e.name === "changedProperty") { // handle the property change here } } } } </script>
