TextColumn action->button not working as expected

Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('asdas')
    ->label('See 2 items')
    ->action(
        Tables\Actions\Action::make('test')
            ->button() // it doesnt show it as btn, should it?
            ->modalContent(fn (Response $record) => view('test', [
                'field' => [],
            ]))
            ->modalFooterActions(fn () => [])
        ,
    )

Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('asdas')
    ->label('See 2 items')
    ->action(
        Tables\Actions\Action::make('test')
            ->button() // it doesnt show it as btn, should it?
            ->modalContent(fn (Response $record) => view('test', [
                'field' => [],
            ]))
            ->modalFooterActions(fn () => [])
        ,
    )

i see like this (see image), but i expected it to be shown as a btn with the primary color as bg , but it doesnt

Solution:

Ah that's why. ->action() adds a button and they can't be nested. So that doesn't work then. I guess you need a custom column then.

Column actions don't render any link or button. They are an action for the whole clickable area.

oh, yeah true hmmm so how you'd achieve it to make it look like a btn? 🤔 maybe a custom view there, or what? if it's a custom view not sure how to trigger a modal there yet any ideas?

Hacky way: ->formatStateUsing(fn () => new HtmlString(Blade::render('<x-filament::button>Button</x-filament::button>)). Cleaner way: View file 😅

yeah 🫣 using the hacky way, but it doesnt trigger the modal
