Resizing of panels

18 Nov 20181 minute to read

The DashboardLayout control is also provided with the panel resizing functionality which can be enabled or disabled using the allowResizing property. This functionality allows you to resize the panels dynamically through UI interactions using the resizing handlers, which controls the panel resizing in various directions.

Initially, the panels can be resized only in south-east direction. However, panels can also be resized in east, west, north, south, and south-west directions by defining the required directions with the resizableHandles property.

On resizing a panel in Dashboard Layout the following events will be triggered,

  • resizeStart - Triggers when panel resize starts
  • resize - Triggers when panel is being resized
  • resizeStop - Triggers when panel resize stops
