Exporting the Grid |
Top Previous Next |
It is possible to export the currently displayed information within the RoR grids into a separate file in a location of the users choosing.
These exporting options are available when you right click and navigate to ‘Grid’. In here, you are given the choices of ‘Copy to Clipboard’ or ‘Save To’.
Copy to Clipboard options TAB Delimited Plain Text (standard grid export) HTML (keeps the standard grid formatting)
The ‘copy to clipboard’ options are useful for direct pasting into an excel spreadsheet. The plain text option will remove all formatting from the grid, whereas HTML will retain this formatting and even the colouring scheme of the text.
Save To ASCII HTML CSV XLS XML
The save to option will create a file in the location of the users choosing.
These options are currently the only way to select the full displayed grid for export.
