Column Headers on 'Operations with Records'

Jhstephenson

Is there a way to put column headers on 'Operations with records' button columns in a grid?

Also, is there any way to put two or more of those buttons in the same column?

Here is what I have:

What I would like to have is:

Or something similar.

Thanks,

I don't know on creating a header but you can create a drop menu using the Create menu button for operations option on the front page of the Operations with Records dialog.

Thanks, I looked at the Drop Menu option but it doesn't show the options available as soon as the user hits the screen. I want all four buttons on the screen as soon as the page loads.

Side by side is no good? That's the default method so long as you have the horizontal space.

Side by side is fine. But I want Column Headings to define what the Buttons do, instead of Typing everything in the button.

Grid Init Script

config.columns[columnIndex].title = "column title"

Thanks John that works great.

Now to another part of the original question...

Is it possible to get two, or more, buttons in the same column, so that I could have one heading appear centered above them.

It's definitely possible, but more complicated.
