Provides access to the client-side buttons option that represents an editor button collection.

Namespace: DevExtreme.AspNet.Mvc.Builders

Assembly: DevExtreme.AspNet.Core.dll

Declaration

public DropDownBoxBuilder Buttons(
    Action<CollectionFactory<TextEditorButtonBuilder>> configurator
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
configurator Action<CollectionFactory<TextEditorButtonBuilder>>

A function that allows you to add items to the collection.

Returns

Type Description
DropDownBoxBuilder

A reference to this instance after the method is called.

Remarks

To configure an editor button collection, use a multiline lambda expression. In this case, a lambda parameter performs the role of a collection factory, and its Add() method adds a new item to the collection. The Add() method returns TextEditorButtonBuilder whose methods you can use to configure an item.

@(Html.DevExtreme().DropDownBox()
    .Buttons(buttons => {
        buttons.Add(); // call methods to configure an editor button
        buttons.Add();
    })
)
