Toolbar
The Data Table Editor toolbar provides access to the operations that may be performed with the data table.
| Show/Hide Advanced Properties | This toggle button is used to show and hide fields or columns that are marked as advanced. |
| Refresh | Available in Server-side object list mode only. The refresh button reloads the whole list and updates current page. |
| Add Row | Insert a new row before the currently selected one. If no row is selected, a new row is added to the end of table. This button is disabled or hidden if rows may not be added to the table. If the component works in Server-side object list mode, this button inserts a new object into the server-side list rather than directly adding a record to the visible table. Another Data Table Editor is shown first to allow filling fields of the new object to be created. The new object will become visible only if it matches current filtering rules and fits current page. In most cases clicking on Refresh button will be required to see the new object |
| Remove Selected Rows | Remove the currently selected row(s). This button is disabled or hidden if rows may not be removed. If the component works in Server-side object list mode, this button deletes object(s) from the server-side list in addition to removing corresponding records from the visible table. |
| First | Available in Server-side object list mode only. Scrolls the list to the first page. |
| Previous | Available in Server-side object list mode only. Scrolls the list to the previous page. |
| Next | Available in Server-side object list mode only. Scrolls the list to the next page. |
| Last | Available in Server-side object list mode only. Scrolls the list to the last page. |
Row Count | Available in Server-side object list mode only. Defines how many objects are shown in a single page. The above scrolling buttons can be used to navigate the long list. | |
| Move Row Up | Move current row up. This button is not shown if rows may not be reordered. It changes actual data in the table (in contrast to the sorting operation, which merely changes how the data is shown.) |
| Move Row Down | Move currently row down. This button is not shown if rows may not be reordered. It changes actual data in the table (in contrast to the sorting operation, which merely changes how the data is shown.) |
| Reset Changes | Undo all changes that were made to the table. This button is enabled only after a change is made. |
| Enable/Disable Horizontal Scrolling | If horizontal scrolling is disabled, width of all columns is adjusted automatically to fit the width of Data Table Editor window. If scrolling is enabled, Data Table Editor has a horizontal scrollbar and width of all columns is adjusted to fit their contents. This option is disabled by default. |
| Import Data Table | Imports data from a file. |
| Export Data Table | Exports data to a file. |
| Make Report | Generate a report based on the table being edited or viewed. |
| Help | Open documentation article related to the data being edited/viewed. |
Some (or even all) toolbar buttons may be hidden or disabled if their respective operations are not available in the editor. A button is hidden if the operation is not applicable to the current table at all. If an operation is simply not available at the moment (e.g. the Remove Selected Rows is disabled when no rows are selected), its button is disabled.
