how to dynamically create documentGroup with jqxlayout?

[softboy99Participant]

no any api found to create Tabbed documentGroup pragmatically. What i want is to create Tabbed documentGroup by clicking the navigation menu. There is no any demo also in the showcase demos. I found jqxTab has api “addTab” to create a Tab pragmatically. but don’t know how to use it with jqxLayout.

Hello softboy99,

Unfortunately, such functionality is not available in jqxLayout. If you are using jqxDockingLayout, however, you can call the method addFloatGroup in order to add a floatGroup which can then be docked inside a documentGroup using the mouse.

this functionality is very easy for easyui,could you please give some help? Thanks a lot.

Hello softboy99,

The elements used for tabbedGroups and documentGroups are actually jqxRibbons. However, it is not recommended to call methods of these ribbons directly, because this will not properly update the layout object/property of jqxLayout and will most probably lead to unexpected behaviour. We are sorry for lacking the functionality you need.

I was looking to see how add float group was implemented but it’s giving an error when loading that page.

Is there a way to add a document to a document group programmatically?

[HristoParticipant]

Hello jbrahy,

You could use the addFloatGroup method to add floating layout and after that you could add into the “document group”.
On the other side, I would like to suggest you another our product and especially this demo.

is there relay till now no possibility to add documents dynamically except addFloatGroup
if u want to build eq an IDE and i have to open files then its very ugly when i have to use addFloatGroup and then i have to move
with the mouse this doc to the right pane.
This discussion is from 2017 and now its 2019
is there maybe workaround to achieve this

Hello helkatz,

Please, take a look at this topic post:
https://www.jqwidgets.com/community/topic/how-to-dynamically-create-documentgroup-with-jqxlayout/#post-106291
Especially, this demo.
We suggest an alternative with “Smart.DockingLayout” component.
It is our product, too.
