colvis migration to latest datatables

tsprasanth

Hi all,
Firstly I want to say Data tables is superb and easy to use. I have a query regarding colvis plugin by datatables.
I have been using colvis with 1.9 version and it was working properly. Now I have upgraded the datatables from 1.9.4 to 1.10.10 and it still works but its causing problem with export buttons.

I know they asked us to use buttons instead of colvis but is there any other way to integrate colvis with latest datatables version like a migration file or any other similar plugin because drop down looks better than buttons.

Hi all I found the solution for my problem.

I was using
"dom": 'C<"clear">lfrtip',
to create show/hide dropdown and because of that its not allwoing export buttons.

I changed my code to ColVis example new initialisation format and both functionalities started working

thanks.

The new Buttons extension's column visibility plug-in is the replacement to the old ColVis extension. However, it should be possible to still use ColVis - it just isn't going to have any new features added to it.
