Toggle selected rows with a button

parismiguel

Hi!

I'm trying to toggle only selected rows within a table using a button but, so far, all I've got is to filter only those in the current page within a collection of pages. Could you please help me what to do?

  {
                 text: '<i class="fa fa-list" style="color:orange;"></i>',
                 action: function (e, dt, node, config) {
                     //This works only in current page
                     $('#tblUsers tbody tr').not('.selected').toggle();
                     //This doesn't work at all
                     tableUsers.rows({ selected: true }).data().draw();
                 },
                 className: 'vcaBtnTable'
             },

OK... after hours of try and error, I've came with this solution that works ebautifully to my purposes.

  if (tableActions.rows({ selected: false }).count() == 0) {
                          dt.ajax.reload(function () {
                              dt.rows('.selected').select();
                          });
                      }
                      else {
                          $("#tblActions").DataTable().rows({ selected: false }).remove().draw();
                      }

Bear in mind that I had initialized my table as follows:

tableActions = $('#tblActions').DataTable({....});
