JavaScript/jQuery MultiView - Customize Item Appearance

To customize views in the MultiView, define an itemTemplate.

jQuery
JavaScript
HTML
var multiViewItems = [{
    title: "Personal Data",
    data: { firstName: "John", lastName: "Smith", birthYear: 1986 }
}, {
    title: "Contacts",
    data: { phone: "(555)555-5555", email: "John.Smith@example.com" }
}];

$(function() {
    $("#multiViewContainer").dxMultiView({
        dataSource: multiViewItems,
        itemTemplate: function(itemData, itemIndex, itemElement) {
            var container = $("<div style='margin:25px;'>");
            container.append("<h1>" + itemData.title + "</h1>");

            var info = $("<div style='text-align:left;'>");
            for (var field in itemData.data) {
                info.append("<p>" + field + ": <b>" + itemData.data[field] + "</b></p>");
            }
            container.append(info);
            itemElement.append(container);
        }
    });
});

View Demo

Angular

You can also customize individual views. Declare them using the dxItem component:

HTML
TypeScript
<dx-multi-view>
    <dxi-item text="Personal Data"></dxi-item>
    <dxi-item text="Contacts"></dxi-item>
</dx-multi-view>
import { DxMultiViewModule } from 'devextreme-angular';
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    // ...
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxMultiViewModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue

You can also customize individual views. Declare them using the dxItem component:

App.vue
<template>
    <DxMultiView>
        <DxItem text="Personal Data" />
        <DxItem text="Contacts" />
    </DxMultiView>
</template>
<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import DxMultiView, { DxItem } from 'devextreme-vue/multi-view';

export default {
    components: {
        DxMultiView,
        DxItem
    }
};
</script>
React

You can also customize individual views. Declare them using the dxItem component:

App.js
import React from 'react';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { MultiView, Item } from 'devextreme-react/multi-view';

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <MultiView>
                <Item text="Personal Data"/>
                <Item text="Contacts"/>
            </MultiView>
        );
    }
}

export default App;
jQuery

You can also customize individual views. Declare the views as scripts and reference them in the template property or assign a customization function straight to this property:

JavaScript
HTML
$(function() {
    $("#multiViewContainer").dxMultiView({
        dataSource: [{
            text: "Personal Data",
            template: function() {
                return $("<p>").text("This is Personal Data View");
            }
        }, {
            text: "Contacts",
            template: $("#individualTemplate")
        }]
    });
});
<div id="multiViewContainer"></div>
<script id="individualTemplate" type="text/html">
    <p>This is Contacts View</p>
</script>
