Siebel – Different MiniButton types

You must have come across the so many different types of minibuttons that you can place on your applets. Have you ever gotten confused as to which minibutton to choose for which particular applet?

It’s so nice to be back! Hello to everybody.

I was working on a configuration requirement recently when I needed to add a minibutton on an applet. I noticed that I had many different minibuttons available, and it seemed that all of them perform the same task. I consulted my senior who asked me to just use MinibuttonEdit kind of button. I digged a little deep into it, and, I am sharing here my findings with everybody.

You would find the following different types of minibutton options in Siebel:
MiniButton
MiniButtonEdit
MiniButtonEditNew
MiniButtonNew
MiniButtonQuery

Believe me all of them have different uses. Actually, their visibility on applets is controlled by the selection we make. You can refer the table below for easy understanding:

The above selections will ensure that the selected button appears only in the Applet Mode that we want.
