Using the export functions of Buttons without using the provided buttons

eponym

Hi Guys-

Scenario: I would like to provide a single 'external' button that triggers a modal that displays a button group for selecting what type of data export (xls, csv, pdf) and a export button.

Question: Am I correct that I would use the direct insertion technique mentioned in the documentation? Will I be able to use my own buttons and have access to the API via jquery. Where do I find the documentation for the API?

Thanks!

David

Hi David,

Have a look at the last example on the buttons.buttons.action option. It shows how the action of a button might be called from a custom button - you could basically do the same thing.
