New API and plugins: header buttons and drop-down menus

[Tin]

I've just added a couple of new extra-useful APIs and two plugins based on them.

New grid events:

- onHeaderRendered

- onBeforeHeaderDestroy

- onHeaderMouseEnter

- onHeaderMouseLeave

New plugins:

- Slick.Plugins.HeaderButtons.  Demo - http://t.co/Ey8gS9SF.

- Slick.Plugins.HeaderMenu.  Demo - http://t.co/vImMoVtT.

Thank you Tin. The header menu will be very be very useful. (Will use it allow the user to customize the column types).

On second thought, I take my word back on the purpose of the usage (will use the already existing right-click solution)

Hi there,

Apologies for being ~3 years late.

Your example with the hide option (which I see has not been implemented in your example), is what I am currently working on introducing in a project. I have numerous columns and several different filter types (text input, calendar, dropdowns etc).

The problem is with the dropdowns. When I remove one of these columns, the other dropdown filters are breaking - depending on which dropdown column is removed. For example:

Columns:  #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8

#3,#4, and #5 have dropdown filters.

If I remove column #4 - then column 5's dropdown filter stops working, and column 3's dropdown filter remains unaffected.

Likewise, if I remove column #3 - then both columns #4, and #5's dropdown filters stop working. It appears to be linear in that regard.

Can you shed any light on why this is the case? This only occurs with the dropdown filter columns as described above - all the rest are fine. Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,

Shane
