Remarks
Column filter dropdowns can be presented using the following display modes (the first two modes are also called classic).
- Regular list
- Calendar (for date-time columns) - A window with an embedded calendar along with predefined filter items for quick selection of common date intervals
- Checked list
- MS Excel-inspired style
The style of column filter dropdowns can be set at three levels.
Application level
The static WindowsFormsSettings.ColumnFilterPopupMode property specifies the default column filter dropdown style for all GridControls in your application.
Control level
The current property (ColumnViewOptionsFilter.ColumnFilterPopupMode) specifies the default column filter dropdown style in a certain View. This setting overrides the WindowsFormsSettings.ColumnFilterPopupMode global setting.
Column level
A column’s OptionsColumnFilter.FilterPopupMode property (GridColumn.OptionsFilter.FilterPopupMode) specifies the filter dropdown style for a specific column. This setting overrides the ColumnViewOptionsFilter.ColumnFilterPopupMode setting.
The ColumnViewOptionsFilter.ColumnFilterPopupMode property can be set to one of the following values:
- Default - The actual column filter dropdown style is specified by the WindowsFormsSettings.ColumnFilterPopupMode global setting.
- Classic - Sets classic display styles as default in the current View. The classic presentation styles will be applied to columns that have the GridColumn.OptionsFilter.FilterPopupMode property set to Default. Otherwise, column filter dropdowns will be presented according to the GridColumn.OptionsFilter.FilterPopupMode property.
- Excel - Sets the MS Excel-inspired filter dropdown style as default in the current View. This presentation mode will be applied to columns that have the GridColumn.OptionsFilter.FilterPopupMode property set to Default. Otherwise, column filter dropdowns will be presented according to the GridColumn.OptionsFilter.FilterPopupMode property.
