As indicated by Jeremy’s answer, you don’t need the ext:issmallbutton<\/code> to enable your button (you mention my article<\/a> on Tridion Developer, where I specifically state that the ext:issmallbutton<\/code> is not to be used when you want to stack buttons on top of eachother). <\/p>\n

You probably should try to debug your JavaScript and see what is happening in your _isAvailable(selection, pipeline)<\/code> and _isEnabled(selection, pipeline)<\/code> methods.<\/p>\n

The isAvailable method should indicate whether the command is applicable for the selected item(s) and the isEnabled method indicates whether the command can be executed. I usually just let the isEnabled method return the result of the isAvailable one (since when the button is available, it should most of the time also be enabled). An example of how to enable a button when you have selected a Page would look something like this:<\/p>\n

Example.PageBtn.prototype._isAvailable = function PageBtn$_isAvailable(selection, pipeline) {\n    if (pipeline) {\n        pipeline.stop = false;\n    }\n\n    if (selection.getCount() == 1) {\n        var itemType = $models.getItemType(selection.getItem(0));\n        return itemType && (itemType == $const.ItemType.PAGE);\n    }\n    return false;\n};\nExample.PageBtn.prototype._isEnabled = function PageBtn$_isEnabled(selection, pipeline) {\n    if (pipeline) {\n        pipeline.stop = false;\n    }\n    return this._isAvailable(selection);\n}; \n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Now the ext:issmallbutton<\/code> element has nothing to do with this all, but if you would like to know where that should be used exactly, it is supposed to go inside the ext:extension<\/code>element like so:<\/p>\n
<ext:extension assignid=\"PageBtn\" groupid=\"MyGroup\" name=\"Example\" pageid=\"HomePage\">\n    <ext:command>PageBtn<\/ext:command>\n    <ext:title>Example<\/ext:title>\n    <ext:issmallbutton>true<\/ext:issmallbutton>\n    <ext:dependencies>\n        <cfg:dependency>Example.Commands<\/cfg:dependency>\n    <\/ext:dependencies>\n    <ext:apply>\n        <ext:view name=\"DashboardView\">\n            <ext:control id=\"DashboardToolbar\" \/>\n        <\/ext:view>\n    <\/ext:apply>\n<\/ext:extension>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
