MVCxFilterControlSettings.AllowNonVisualFilterExpression Property

Specifies whether the filter control enables filtering using complex valid expressions that cannot be visualized in the Visual tab.

Namespace: DevExpress.Web.Mvc

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.Mvc5.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public bool AllowNonVisualFilterExpression { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property AllowNonVisualFilterExpression As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, if the expressions that cannot be visualized can be used; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Remarks

When the MVCxFilterControlSettings.ViewMode property is set to VisualAndText, complex valid expressions typed as text (via the Text tab) fail validation if they can not be visualized as a tree in the Visual tab.

We recommend that you set this property to true only if your scenario requires using a valid expression that cannot be visualized in the Visual tab.
