Exporting only filtered data using TableTools Button collections

MySchools

Hi

When setting up TableTools to group buttons into a hidden drop down list (Button collections) the exported data seems to export all data in the table and not only the filtered visible data. When not grouping the buttons into a collection the export works correctly exporting only the filtered data. Is there a setting that I have missed.

Thanks
Jonathan

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var selected = [];

$(document).ready(function () {
   var tablePermissionNote = $('#tblClubMembersList').dataTable({
    "dom": '<"toolbar">C<"clear">lfrtip<"clear">T',
            tableTools: {

});

Hi Jonathan,

There is no inheritance in the TableTools buttons in a collection, so the current oSelectorOpts that you have isn't being used at all. You need to define it for each button in the collection I'm afraid.

A limitation in TableTools that I definitely plan to correct in future!
