What is the difference between ui:menuTrigger and ui:menuTriggerLink?

Question

Can somebody give me example of ui:menuTrigger and how it is different from ui:menuTriggerLink? Current document doesn't have any example for ui:menuTrigger. Any help will be appriciated.

Answer 1

There's really no reason to use ui:menuTrigger. You should always use ui:menuTriggerLink instead. Here's an example with explanation for a component that uses ui:menuTriggerLink:

Answer 2

It is not documented but I have used ui:menuTrigger for using button and custom template instead of link.

<ui:menuTrigger>
  <!-- button or custom template -->
</ui:menuTrigger>
