Changing Buttons in the Lightbox

There is a possibility to redefine the default buttons in the lightbox.

Let's start from the collection where all these buttons are stored.
By default, the lightbox contains 3 buttons ('Save', 'Cancel', 'Delete') that are specified by the buttons_left and buttons_right configuration options.

scheduler.config.buttons_left = ["dhx_save_btn", "dhx_cancel_btn"];
scheduler.config.buttons_right = ["dhx_delete_btn"];

To redefine the default sets of buttons, follow the steps below:

1 . Specify new members of the buttons_left or buttons_right array like this:

scheduler.config.buttons_left = ["dhx_save_btn","dhx_cancel_btn","locate_button"];

2 . Set the button label as follows:

scheduler.locale.labels["locate_button"] = "Location";

3 . Specify the desired colors for the buttons via the following selector - {buttonName}_set. For example:

.dhx_save_btn_set{
    background-color:#4CAF50;
}

4 . Set an icon for a button (and/or apply some other styling) by specifying the CSS class as in:

.locate_button
{
    background-image:url('../../codebase/imgs/location.gif');
    background-position: -2px 0px;
    width:20px;
}

5 . Define the onLightboxButton handler that will treat clicks on the button in the following way:

scheduler.attachEvent("onLightboxButton", function(button_id, node, e){
    if(button_id == "locate_button"){
        alert("Location!");
    }
});
