Event Data

The FilterElementDefaultValues event's data class is FilterElementDefaultValuesEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:

Property Description
AvailableFilterValues Gets the available filter values for the current filter element.

FilterValues Gets filter values used to apply default filtering.
ItemComponentName Gets the component name of the filter element.

Example

This example demonstrates how to initialize master filter in a dashboard loaded in the DashboardViewer control. The code for the DashboardDesigner control is the same, because the DashboardDesigner’s events have the same name and functionality.

The following code initializes master filter items:

Master filter initialization can apply one item’s master filter to another master filter item - a mutual filtering occurs. In that scenario, the MasterFilterDefaultValues event has limitations if the Neutral Filter mode is disabled.

using DevExpress.DashboardCommon;
using System;
using System.Linq;

namespace Dashboard_MFDefaultValues
{
    public partial class Form1 : DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm {
        public Form1() {
            InitializeComponent();
            dashboardViewer1.UseNeutralFilterMode = true;
            dashboardViewer1.ConfigureDataConnection += DashboardViewer1_ConfigureDataConnection;
            dashboardViewer1.MasterFilterDefaultValues += DashboardViewer1_MasterFilterDefaultValues;
            dashboardViewer1.RangeFilterDefaultValue += DashboardViewer1_RangeFilterDefaultValue;

            dashboardViewer1.Dashboard = new Dashboard1();
        }

        private void DashboardViewer1_ConfigureDataConnection(object sender, DashboardConfigureDataConnectionEventArgs e)
        {
            ExtractDataSourceConnectionParameters connParameters = e.ConnectionParameters as ExtractDataSourceConnectionParameters;
            connParameters.FileName = "Data\\SalesPerson.dat";
        }

        private void DashboardViewer1_MasterFilterDefaultValues(object sender, MasterFilterDefaultValuesEventArgs e) {
            if (e.ItemComponentName == "gridDashboardItem1") {
                e.FilterValues = e.AvailableFilterValues.Where(v => (string)v["Sales Person"] == "Laura Callahan");
            }
            if (e.ItemComponentName == "treeViewDashboardItem1") {
                e.FilterValues = e.AvailableFilterValues.Where(v => (string)v["Category"] == "Beverages" || 
                    (string)v["Product"] == "Aniseed Syrup");
            }
        }

        private void DashboardViewer1_RangeFilterDefaultValue(object sender, RangeFilterDefaultValueEventArgs e) {
            if (e.DashboardItemName == "rangeFilterDashboardItem1") {
                e.Range = new RangeFilterSelection(new DateTime(2015, 06, 01), new DateTime(2016, 04, 01));
            }
        }
    }
