jQWidgets jqxTree hitTest() Method

Last Updated : 13 Oct, 2021

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 jqxTree represents a jQuery widget that is used to display a hierarchical collection of items. To display the collection of items, we can populate from ‘UL’ or by using its ‘source’ property.

The hitTest() method is used to get the item at specific position. It accepts two parameters left, and top of Number type to set the offset and return the Object type value.

Syntax:

var item = $('Selector').jqxTree('hitTest', left, top);
