Class ModalButtonToUiOptionConverter

One-time migration helper that turns legacy modal SerializedComponentData buttons into the rich UiOption model now used by modals. A former submit button becomes a UiOption with SUBMIT and STRING, preserving Id/Guid/Label and the translate flags.

Namespace: Serenity.Modal.InterfaceAdapters.EntityMappers
Assembly: Serenity.UnityModal.InterfaceAdapter.dll
Syntax
public static class ModalButtonToUiOptionConverter
Remarks

UiOption carries a single OnSubmitSignal (matching menu options), whereas a legacy button could carry several. The dominant real case is a single OnCloseModalSignal; when a button has more than one signal only the first is kept and a warning is logged so the rest can be re-added in the new options editor. UiOption is intentionally NOT forked to hold a signal list — that would break parity with menu options.
