API

class ModifyRecordListTableActionsEvent

Fully qualified name

\TYPO3\CMS\Backend\RecordList\Event\ModifyRecordListTableActionsEvent

An event to modify the multi record selection actions (e.g.

"edit", "copy to clipboard") for a table in the RecordList.

setAction ( string $action, string $actionName = '', string $before = '', string $after = '')

Add a new action or override an existing one. Latter is only possible, in case $actionName is given. Otherwise, the action will be added with a numeric index, which is generally not recommended. It's also possible to define the position of an action with either the "before" or "after" argument, while their value must be an existing action.
