UI BUILDER: Show the buttons of the action bar component

[fabrizio95360]

Hi developers,

in my "action bar" component I would like to show the buttons that are inside the three dots,

I saw that in the data resources form controller in the actions there is a property that is set to false for the save button,  while for the other two buttons it is set to true "shouldBeInOverflow": true

I don't know if that's the reason, but I don't know how to make those buttons appear as the save button.

Actions in workspace are controlled using some tables on the back-end. Each button has a series of records, but you'lll need to find entries for each button in the sys_ux_form_action_layout_item and uncheck the Overflow checkbox for any buttons you want to show directly on the page and not in the overflow menu (three dots). You can also get to that table by going to UX Form Action Layouts in the menu, finding your table/workspace combo and clicking into the records from there.

Thanks for your response Brad.

My button is a ui action, it is not present in the table you indicated. I think you are referring to declarative actions. my problem is that I have already created a ui action that works and I don't want to create a declarative action. I just need to move that button. Is there a way to do this?

A UI Action that works in workspace gets some sort declarative action record created for it in order for it to show up on the workspace form, it just lives in another table. I would keep looking around in the ux form actions tables. I don't remember the name of the other table off the top of my head.

For an UI Action to work on workspace, it's subsequent records get created in sys_ux_form_action table once you select configurable in workspace option in the UI Action form.
