Add custom button for ‘Save Current Customizations’

In one of our recent development we had a requirement to add a custom button dashboard for ‘Save Current Customizations’. By default you can find this option in Page Options drop down on Right-Top corner of Dashboard.

To create button we need to find ‘On Click’ event of this option. We can find properties of this link by right clicking on ‘Save Current Customizations’ and Inspect element.

Following are the steps to create custom button,

      1.  Edit Dashboard and add Text from dashboard object list on the corresponding Section:

  

      2.  Edit text and add the following HTML code :

<div class="XUIPromptEntry minibuttonOn">            <Table>                       <tr><td><input type="button" value="Save Current Customization" style="width:200px;  background-color: rgb(47, 95, 135); color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size:13px; font-family: Arial,sans-serif;  font-weight:bold;"  onclick="obidash.SaveCustomizationDialog.open(); return false;"></button></td></tr>    

</table>  </div>

   
     3.  Check the box “Contains HTML Markup” and save the changes.

 4. Position Button on dashboard as per your requirement.
