AuthorActionGroup-Button

Post by Patrik »

Hi,

when placing too many action-buttons (using css) in a document then the clarity might drop. So it might be an idea to group similar actions within one popup-button that will list the containing actions when you click on it - similar to a sub-menu.
This could also help for the guided authoring of dita documents: Currently there are places where too many elements are allowed to be inserted to display them all. But by grouping them you could reduce the number of required buttons.

Regards,
Patrik

Hello Patrik,

As it happens we already have such a buttons group form control. If you are using version 16.1 please use the actionIDs parameter to populate the pop-up with actions (in version 17.0 we've added a new property named actions).

Best regards,
Alex
