  • jqxdropdownbutton in grid toolbar #111521

    Hello,
    I have two questions: I would prefer to use a Bootstrap dropdown button in the grid toolbar. However, when the dropdown happens the contents are hidden behind the grid. Seems that no matter how I set the z-index I cannot get this in front of the grid.

    I then tried to use jqxdropdownbutton but it doesn’t really behave like a Bootstrap button since it “selects” an option from the dropdown list and performs actions instead of performing action, closing, and keeping the title label. For example, I have dropdown that has title of “Grid Actions” – in the list it has values: Auto Resize, Expand, Collapse. I want the action to be performed on the instance of the grid and then REMAIN with the title of Grid Actions.

    I looked through many examples, including the one with the jqxtree widget as button contents, which is too complex for my needs. I just want a simple dropdown with action on click.

    Again, I would like to use the Bootstrap dropdownbutton if I can just get the content to show in front of the grid.

    Any ideas greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.
    Rob

    Hello Rob,

    This is the approach that you could use.
    You could integrate another widget there – for example, jqxListBox or jqxButton.
    Also, one possible option is to use the source property that could simplify the scenario.
    Please, take a look at this example.

    Thanks, Hristo but that doesn’t really solve the problem because the list widget is SELECTING an item as opposed to simply performing an action like a bootstrap dropdown button (https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/dropdowns/). I do not think jqwidgets has the equivalent functionality.

    Appreciate your time on this,
    Rob
