Jquery - DataTables [tableTools]: export only visible rows

Question

I just started out using jQuery DataTables.

using the tableTools of DataTables, is it possible to only export visible rows instead of all the rows? If for example the pagination was set to 10 I would expect only 10 rows to be exported. The same goes for a search result.

Here's part of the code:

$(document).ready(function() {
      var table = $('#example').DataTable({
        "pagingType": "full_numbers",
          "iDisplayLength" : 10,
                dom: 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
                 "oTableTools": {
            "aButtons": [
{ "sExtends": "copy", "mColumns": "visible",      "bSelectedOnly": true },
{ "sExtends": "xls", "mColumns": "visible" },
{ "sExtends": "print", "mColumns": "visible" }

], "sRowSelect": "multi"},


             "order": [[ 0, "asc" ]]
    } ) ;...

Thank you.

I used this solution and it worked. Try this:

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
    var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
        "pagingType": "full_numbers",
        "iDisplayLength": 10,
        "dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
        "oTableTools": {
          "aButtons": [
            {'sExtends':'copy',
              "oSelectorOpts": { filter: 'applied', order: 'current' },
            },
            {'sExtends':'xls',
              "oSelectorOpts": { filter: 'applied', order: 'current' },
            },
            {'sExtends':'print',
              "oSelectorOpts": { filter: 'applied', order: 'current' },
            }
          ]
        },
    });
});
</script>
