When the dashboard item is re-rendered, all events connected to dashboard item’s life cycle (onItemWidget…) are fired again.

Note

The onItemWidgetCreated event is not fired for a custom dashboard item.

onItemWidgetOptionsPrepared Property

Specifies a handler for the event allowing you to access underlying UI/Data Visualization widgets and configure their options.

Declaration

onItemWidgetOptionsPrepared?: (args: ItemWidgetOptionEventArgs) => void

Property Value

Type	Description
(args: ItemWidgetOptionEventArgs) => void	A function that is executed before the client widget is prepared.

Remarks

Use the DashboardItemBaseEventArgs.dashboardItem property to get the dashboard item for which the event is raised. The options property provides access to its underlying widget’s options.

The example shows how to customize options of underlying widgets. Handle the onItemWidgetOptionsPrepared event to do the following:

Highlight a hovered grid row in the underlying dxDataGrid.
Disable a standard tooltip that appears when a user hovers over a chart’s series point.
Create a custom tooltip that appears when a user clicks a label on the chart’s argument axis. The onArgumentAxisClick property executes a function that invokes the custom tooltip.
Enable the animation for the dxChart and dxPieChart widgets.
Display a legend in the dxPieChart widget.

View Example

import { GridItem, ChartItem, PieItem} from 'devexpress-dashboard/model';
// ...
function customizeWidgetOptions(e) {
  if (e.dashboardItem instanceof GridItem) {
    e.options.hoverStateEnabled = true
  };
  if (e.dashboardItem instanceof ChartItem) {  
    e.options.tooltip = {
      enabled: false
    };
    e.options.animation = {
      enabled: true,
      duration: 1000
    };
    e.options.onArgumentAxisClick = function (info) {
      info.component.getAllSeries()[0].getPointsByArg(info.argument)[0].showTooltip()
    }
  };  
  if (e.dashboardItem instanceof PieItem) {    
    e.options.legend = {
      visible: true,
      border: {
          visible: true
