Best Practice to add print CSS style to DataTable header and footer

daytonoutar

I need to hide the page length dropdown, buttons extension and paging when printing.

I could do this in initComplete callback and find the necessary enclosing HTML elements for the mentioned controls through the settings parameter (or I could make reference to the DataTable using this keyword). But what is the best practice.

I'm using the Semantic UI styling

If you use DataTables' own "Print" button, those things are excluded by default. At least, that's what's happening for me.
No idea about Semantic UI though.

Tangerine,

I forgot to mention that I must print the row groupings while using the RowGroup extension.

When using the "Print" button, the row grouping is ignored. This is why I am taking this route to ignore the Buttons extension for this task.

If you find a way for me to have RowGroup be acknowledged in "Print" it would be really nice because I like the extension.
