Filter Dropdown for the Filter Panel

  • 2 minutes to read

A filter drop-down window for the filter panel is similar to filter drop-down windows available for View items if the text filter display style is active. This drop-down window lists filter criteria previously applied to the grid View. The list is populated in chronological order where the most recently used criterion is on top. A user can click a listed criterion to apply it to the grid View.

Availability

A filter drop-down window is available for a filter panel if it displays the MRU list button and a grid View’s FilterBox.CriteriaDisplayStyle property is set to fcdsText.

Content

The filter drop-down window lists unique filter criteria previously applied to a grid View. The View’s FilterBox.MRUItemsListDropDownCount property limits the number of simultaneously visible list items. A user can scroll the list if its size exceeds the FilterBox.MRUItemsListDropDownCount property value. You can also use the View’s Filtering.MRUItemsListCount property to change the maximum MRU list size.

Note

You can handle a View item’s OnGetFilterDisplayText event to change text in listed items.

Localization

Use the cxSFilterOperator~ constants declared in the cxFilterConsts unit to change filter operator captions displayed in a filter panel. Refer to the following topic for details: “ExpressEditors: Resource Strings
