You can set the value of trigger by passing an argument to the component's hide() method for advanced control (i.e. detecting what button or action triggered the modal to hide). Note: ok, cancel, or close events will be only emitted when the argument to hide() is strictly 'ok', 'cancel', or 'headerclose' respectively. The argument passed to hide() will be placed into the trigger property of the event object. Utilize the Bootstrap grid system within a modal by nesting <b-container fluid> within the modal-body.
