Order of buttons

James Hudson

By following (and slightly adapting) the tutorial I have managed to add some buttons to the home page, however I can't see any way of setting the order they appear in. Is there any way of doing this?

Hi James,


Good question - at the moment, no, although this is something we've considered (along with the idea of collapsing multiple buttons into a dropdown button to preserve real estate on record-level pages).  I'd be interested in knowing more about your scenario though, as it would help us understand the need on our end.  Any details you can share about what you'd like to see?


(also - when you say "adapting" the tutorial, is there something incorrect or you feel could be improved within the tutorial?  Any feedback would be welcome!)

Hi Ben


In our case the buttons I've added are links to our in house documentation on RE and a couple of support request forms, so it would be good to sort them so that the support forms links don't end up randomly sandwiching the documentation one.


The add-in is based on the SKY UX button tutorial so the adapted bit was about the fact that I'd changed the location that button displays and created several buttons (neither of these things are difficult or unintuitive though). There were a couple of things which did trip me up whilst doing it though which I'll highlight. The execution policy for PowerShell scripts needed changing to allow the skyux script to run and when publishing the final build I had to add useHashRouting to the configuration in order for it to work (I'm hosting it on GitHub Pages).
