Specifies the initial operator type used to create a filter condition based on the filter row value.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

[DefaultValue(GridFilterRowOperatorType.Default)]
[Parameter]
public GridFilterRowOperatorType FilterRowOperatorType { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
GridFilterRowOperatorType	Default	A GridFilterRowOperatorType enumeration value.

Available values:

Name	Description
Default	Uses the Contains operator type for columns bound to the String data type; Equals in other cases.
Equal	Selects records that are equal to the entered value.
NotEqual	Selects records that are not equal to the entered value.
StartsWith	Selects records that start with the entered string.
EndsWith	Selects records that end with the entered string.
Contains	Selects records that contain the entered string.
Less	Selects records that are less than the entered value. String values are compared based on their alphabetical order.
LessOrEqual	Selects records that are less than the entered value or equal to it. String values are compared based on their alphabetical order.
Greater	Selects records that are greater than the entered value. String values are compared based on their alphabetical order.
GreaterOrEqual	Selects records that are greater than the entered value or equal to it. String values are compared based on their alphabetical order.

Remarks

Enable the ShowFilterRow option to activate a row that allows users to filter Grid data. The Grid component generates and configures cell editors for filter row cells based on associated column data types. When a user types into an editor, the Grid creates a filter condition based on the editor value and applies this condition to the corresponding column.

The Grid chooses an operator type automatically: Contains for columns bound to the String data type; Equals in other cases. Use the FilterRowOperatorType property to change the operator type.

When you use the FilterRowValue property to specify the initial editor value, you should also specify the FilterRowOperatorType property explicitly.

You can handle the FilterRowOperatorTypeChanged event to respond to operator type changes.

Note

The filter menu and filter row use the same set of filter criteria for fields and may affect each other. For example, when a user types a value in the filter row and then picks a value in a filter menu of the same column, the Grid component applies different criteria. When a user enters a value in the filter row again, the Grid applies the new operator set by the filter menu. You can implement the UI to change the filter row’s operator type to make sure which filter criteria is currently applied.
