Primeng: [p-splitButton] Default button opens dropdown

[mgutbor]

should be possible to open dropdown menu when click on the default button???

thanks in advance.

An regular button which triggers an overlay panel with a dropdown inside seems more intuitive to me.

If you wanted to do it the way described I think it would work to get a ref to the component and catch the command button being clicked via "onClick" and then use the ref to the component to manually call "show" which will show the dropdown.

I think the original request is a perfectly valid issue. I am surprised triggering the SplitButton's dropdown with a click on the "main button" is not supported.

I think the issue is poorly worded which lead to it being closed. I can see how it looked like a help request. You can always open a new issue and reference this one or PR it yourself if you would like.

fyi I workaround this by doing something like:

<p-splitButton #ua label="foo" (onClick)="ua.onDropdownButtonClick(null)" [model]="actions"></p-splitButton>
