  Hello,
  
  Haven't been able to find any documentation and it looks like my only option is to set a command name and command argument for a button, but I'm trying to work around this.  Any ideas?
  
  

  var toolBar = $find("<%= m.ClientID %>");

  var button = toolBar.findItemByText("Get Button");

  button.enable();

  //want to do something like this:

  button.click("openWindow(1)");

  ended up just going with the commandName and Argument and adding a handler to the toolbar but only on this page that it's used on (since toolbar is part of master pages)
  
  shared in case someone else stumbles upon this post
  
  

  function OnClickedHandler_Custom(sender,args)

          {

              var command = args.get_item().get_value();

              var argument = args.get_item().get_commandArgument();

              if(command == "PreviewShare")

              {

                  openPreviewWindow(argument);

              }

              else if(command == "ShareSettings")

              {

                  openSharingSettings(argument);

              }

                

          }

    

          function myFunction(myId) {

              var toolBar = $find("<%= m.ClientID %>");

              toolBar.add_buttonClicked(OnClickedHandler_Custom);

              

              //set up preview button          

              var buttonPreview = toolBar.findItemByText("Preview & Share");

              buttonPreview.enable();

              buttonPreview.set_commandName("PreviewShare");

              buttonPreview.set_commandArgument(myId);

  ...

  }
