Last Updated : 09 May, 2022

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxPanel is used to illustrate a jQuery panel widget which is a holder for different widgets or elements. Moreover, it intuitively appends horizontal as well as vertical scrollbars, in case the stated content is not completely viewable.

The getScrollWidth() method is used to return the width of the scrollable from the displayed jqxPanel. It has no parameters. It returns a number.

Syntax:

var width = $("#Selector").jqxPanel('getScrollWidth');
