CSV serialization creates cell with url when coltype is link

Suite and Optimus Suite 5
#1

When I try to perform a CSV serialization (with a column with coltype = ‘link’) it generates a csv in which the ‘link’ coltyped cells content is something like:
[content]^[link]^_self
(which is weird from the .csv usability).

Is there any way to make the grid displaying the cell content as link (as usual), but generating the same link type column with the ‘content’ (and not the weird one) ?

Try to use

var csv = grid.serializeToCSV(true);

It will force “text-only” serialization
Also, in addition to above row, the next one can be added, to change type of output

eXcell_link.prototype.getTitle = eXcell_link.prototype.getContent

Hi.

Using

var csv = grid.serializeToCSV(true);

does not work.

It worked only when I used

grid._strictText = true;

Thank you anyways.

It may vary, depending on build, latest one ( same as future version ) must support parameter of serializeToCSV, with same effect as _strictText inner flag.
