Options

This button can have the following options set in its configuration object to customise its actions and display, in addition to those options which are available for all buttons (e.g. buttons.buttons.text):

`config`

	buttons: ['fixedColumns']
});

new DataTable.Buttons(table, {
	buttons: [
		{
			extend: 'fixedColumns',
			config: {
				start: 2,
				end: 1
			}
		}
	]
});
