searchPanes.collapse

Since: SearchPanes 1.4.0

Allow the SearchPanes to be collapsed.
Please note - this property requires the SearchPanes extension for DataTables.

Description

This option is an alias to searchPanes.collapse, which should be preferred when using DataTables 2+. It can be used to configure SearchPanes regardless of how the panes are inserted into the document (layout or searchPanes).

Please refer to the documentation for searchPanes.collapse for full details of this option.

Type

boolean

Description:

By setting the searchPanes.collapse option to false the searchpane will not be collapsible and the collapse button will not be shown at the top of the panes.

Default

  • Value: true

The default value for the searchPanes.collapse parameter is true, meaning that as standard the searchpanes are all collapsible.

Example

Don't allow SearchPanes to be collapsible:

new DataTable('#myTable', {
	layout: {
		top1: 'searchPanes'
	},
	searchPanes: {
		collapse: false
	}
});
