ASPxClientDashboardItemData Class
Represents multidimensional data visualized in the dashboard item.
Declaration
declare class ASPxClientDashboardItemData
Remarks
Each data-bound dashboard item uses a multidimensional representation of data (the ASPxClientDashboardItemData class). Thus the control can visualize information hierarchically. For instance, the pivot grid allows users to expand or collapse column/row field values to view data at different detail levels. In dashboard items, users can also drill up and down through data to move between detail levels. Call the ASPxClientDashboard.GetItemData method to obtain multidimensional data visualized in the specified dashboard item.
The value corresponding to a specific hierarchy level is stored in the ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPoint class that defines a data point in a multidimensional space. Such data points are placed on a specific data axis that is represented by the ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxis class. For instance, a pivot grid has the “Row” and “Column” axes, a chart has the “Argument” and “Series” axes, etc.
Use the following methods to access the displayed data.
- The ASPxClientDashboardItemData.GetAxisNames property returns the names of available data axes. You can obtain the required axis using the ASPxClientDashboardItemData.GetAxis method.
- Use the ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxis.GetPoints method to obtain the axis points that are placed on the obtained data axis.
- Finally, you can obtain the dimension value using the ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPoint.GetDimensionValue method.

Warning
Use of the ASPxClientDashboard
API reduces flexibility when you configure the control. The DashboardControl underlies the ASPxClientDashboard
object. The control provides access to all client settings and allows you to implement complex scenarios. We recommend that you use the DashboardControl
API to configure the Web Dashboard on the client. More information: Client-Side Functionality.
Methods
CreateTuple(values) Method
Creates a tuple based on the specified axes names and corresponding values.
Declaration
CreateTuple(
values: any[] | ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPoint[]
): ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPointTuple

values | any[] | ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPoint[] | An array of name-value pairs containing the axis name and corresponding values. |
Returns
Type | Description |
---|---|
ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPointTuple | An ASPxClientDashboardItemDataAxisPointTuple object representing an axis point tuple. |
Remarks
For instance, you can use the following syntax to pass a name-value pair to the CreateTuple method.
var axisPointTuple = clientData.CreateTuple([{ AxisName: DashboardDataAxisNames.DefaultAxis, Value: ["UK", "Robert King"]}]);
