I want to add a header with buttons to a tree view. How can I do that?

The normal <header> tag does not work.

Can someone point me to a module that does this or give me an example of the XML i need to include?

Thanks

I would also like to find out how to do this as well. When I insert <tree> inside <group> tag it still draws the elements as form and not as tree.

Hi,

In the latest versions, if you need to add button to the list view, it is easy as we do in the form, just add header tag and inside it is possible to define buttons.


Sample:

<record id="res_lang_tree" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">res.lang.treefield>
<field name="model">res.langfield>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<tree string="Languages" limit="200">
<header>
<button name="action_activate_langs" type="object" string="Activate"/>
header>


Thanks

You can add a header with buttons to a Tree View in Odoo by using xPath expressions.

First of all, you will have to define your header in the XML file which defines the Tree View-







Then, use xPath expressions to position the button on the TreeView-
