I would like to add some additional commands to some modals, say a print button on a modal detail view. I have done this in the past on different projects using a really convenient library called printThis on github.

$('#PrintModalButton').click(function(){ $('.modal-content').printThis(); });

How can i access the click event on a button I add to an abp modal form?

Jquery printThis

    Hi, you can add the print button onto the modal template and register the button click event handler on modal open event.

    var modalOptions = {};
    var onClose = function() { };
    var onOpen = function() {
        // register and handle print button
    };
    var myModal = new app.ModalManager({ modalClass: 'MyModal' });
    myModal.open(modalOptions, onClose, onOpen);

    So I created a separate modal footer called _ModalWithPrintAndClose.cshtml as shown

    <div class="modal-footer">
        <!-- Using the Save Button until I can determine how use print-button -->
        <button type="button" id="PrintModalButton" class="btn btn-secondary print-button"><i class="fa fa-save"></i> <span>@L("Print")</span></button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary close-button" data-dismiss="modal">@L("Cancel")</button>
    
    
    </div>
    

    Added it to the Modal

    @await Html.PartialAsync("~/Areas/App/Views/Common/Modals/_ModalFooterWithPrintAndClose.cshtml")
    

    Implemented the onOpen as you demonstrated

    var modalOptions = {};
    
            var onOpen = function () {
                $('#PrintModalButton').click(function () {
                    $('.modal-content').printThis();
    
                });
    
            };
    
            var onClose = function () { };
    
            var _createOrEditModal = new app.ModalManager({
                viewUrl: abp.appPath + 'App/LabRequest/CreateOrEditModal',
                scriptUrl: abp.appPath + 'view-resources/Areas/App/Views/LabRequest/_CreateOrEditModal.js',
                modalClass: 'CreateOrEditLabRequestModal'
            });
    

    Here is a hack that seems to be working for now, but seems a bit unstable... I use the same modal-footer partial view and change the  class on the print button to include save-button, This code within the modal script fileworks and allows me to print

    <br>

    (function ($) {
    
        app.modals.ViewLabRequestModal = function () {
    
            var _modalManager;
    
            this.init = function (modalManager) {
                _modalManager = modalManager;
    
                var modal = _modalManager.getModal();
            };
    
            this.save = function () {
                //TODO: Add option afterPrint and call abpnotification
                $('.modal-content').printThis({
                         loadCSS: "metronic/themes/theme11/css/style.bundle.css"
                });
            };
        }; 
    })(jQuery);
    

    Thoughts?

    So I ended up getting the print modal feature to work by doing the following..

    Created a partial view ModalFooterWithPrintAndClose then added the class save-button to the print button

    <div class="modal-footer">
        <!-- Using the Save Button until I can determine how use print-button -->
        <button type="button" id="PrintModalButton" class="btn btn-secondary save-button"><i class="fa fa-save"></i> <span>@L("Print")</span></button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary close-button" data-dismiss="modal">@L("Cancel")</button>
    
    
    </div>
    

    Added the Print and Close partial view to all modals that needed printing

    @await Html.PartialAsync("~/Areas/App/Views/Common/Modals/_ModalFooterWithPrintAndClose.cshtml")
    
    

    Modified my ViewModal.js file to add the print functionality into the save fucntion

     this.save = function () {           
                $('.modal-body').printThis({
                    loadCSS: "metronic/common/css/invoice-1.css"
                });
            };      
    

    This works for now, seems like a hack. I am still looking for a more permanent solution on how to register a button click event on a modal in this framework.
