Object Notation vs Multi-Argument for Layout

Suite and Optimus Suite 5
#1

Hi, All -

Why do the following two blocks of code not produce similar results?

Code Block A:

	var dhxLayout = new dhtmlXLayoutObject({
		parent: 'parentId',
		view: '4I'
	});

Code Block B:

	var dhxLayout = new dhtmlXLayoutObject( "parentId", "4I" );

The official documentation states that object notation should work as an argument passed to the dhtmlXLayoutObject. The documentation can be found here:
[url]Start DHTMLX Docs.

Code Block B is actually used as an official code sample and can be found here:
[url]http://www.dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxLayout/samples/01_init/01_object.html[/url]

Thanks in advance.

Warm Regards,

xjohnson

Hi,

apologise for this mistake in the documentation. There must be “pattern” property instead of “view”:

var dhxLayout = new dhtmlXLayoutObject({ parent: 'parentId', pattern: '4I' });

Here is the related sample dhtmlxLayout/samples/01_init/05_api_simple.html
