dxDefaultExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType Constant

Specifies the default UI type of an Excel-inspired filter dropdown that lists date-time values.

#Declaration

Delphi
const dxDefaultExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType: TdxExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType = dvptTree;

#Returns

Type
TdxExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType

#Remarks

This global constant defines whether an Excel-inspired filter dropdown shows date-time values as a simple list or arranges them into a tree-like structure. In the latter case, a user can click a single node to also check or uncheck all nested date-time values. Refer to the TdxExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType type description for additional information.

The dxDefaultExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType global constant value defines the essential UI element of the Values page that an Excel-inspired filter dropdown shows if the target data item and its container control both have their date-time related properties set to dvptDefault.

You can change this global constant’s value from dvptTree to dvptList and recompile all sources via the DevExpress VCL Setup to use a simple date-time value list instead of a tree-like structure in all DevExpress data presentation controls by default. Refer to the related property descriptions for details on how all date-time value filter settings interact in different products.

Note

dvptDefault is equivalent to dvptTree as the dxDefaultExcelFilterValueContainerDateTimeValuesPageType global constant’s values. The filter dropdown’s Values page shows a tree-like structure for date-time values in both cases.
