Filter Panel
The Filter Panel displays a string representation of the filter criteria applied to a grid. It displays the following elements.
Filter Expression
Column filters are combined by the AND operator into a single filter expression that is applied to a View. The filter string can be considered to be the WHERE clause of a SQL SELECT statement. To obtain the filter string applied to a View, use the DataControlBase.FilterString property.
Clear Button
Clears the current filter.
Enable Filter
This check box can be used by an end-user to enable or temporarily disable a current filter. To do this in code, use the DataControlBase.IsFilterEnabled property.
MRU Filter List
MRU Filter Dropdown List displays the most recently used filters in a View. This dropdown can be invoked by clicking the MRU filter button or the filter text within the Filter Panel.
