Example

Creating a fieldset via the properties property

const editor = new dhx.DiagramEditor("editor_container", {
    type: "org",
    view: {
        editbar: {
            properties: {
                $shape: [
                    {
                        type: "fieldset",
                        label: "Task details",
                        rows: [
                            { type: "input", key: "name", label: "Task name" },
                            { type: "input", key: "id", label: "ID", readOnly: true },
                            {
                                align: "between",
                                cols: [
                                    { type: "datepicker", key: "date_start", label: "Date start", width: "48%" },
                                    { type: "datepicker", key: "date_end", label: "Date end", width: "48%" },
                                ]
                            },
                            {
                                type: "combo",
                                key: "responsible",
                                label: "Responsible",
                                placeholder: "Select responsible",
                                options: ["Henry Bennet", "Mike Frebel", "Greg Mash"]
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
});

Creating a complex control via the controls property

const editor = new dhx.DiagramEditor("editor_container", {
    type: "default",
    view: {
        editbar: {
            properties: {
                $shape: [
                    { type: "details" }
                ]
            },
            controls: {
                details: {
                    type: "fieldset",
                    label: "Task details",
                    rows: [
                        { type: "input", key: "name", label: "Task name" },
                        { type: "input", key: "id", label: "ID", readOnly: true },
                        {
                            align: "between",
                            cols: [
                                { type: "datepicker", key: "date_start", label: "Date start", width: "48%" },
                                { type: "datepicker", key: "date_end", label: "Date end", width: "48%" }
                            ]
                        },
                        {
                            type: "combo",
                            key: "responsible",
                            label: "Responsible",
                            placeholder: "Select responsible",
                            options: ["Henry Bennet", "Mike Frebel", "Greg Mash"]
                        }
                    ]
                }
            }
        }
    }
});
