public virtual bool UseNewCustomFilterDialog { get; set; }

true to use the advanced custom filter dialog; false to use the standard filter dialog.

#Property Paths

You can access this nested property as listed below:

Object Type Path to UseNewCustomFilterDialog
ColumnView
.OptionsFilter .UseNewCustomFilterDialog

#Remarks

Selecting the (Custom) item within the filter dropdown invokes the MS Excel style filter dialog that enables end-users to specify complex filter conditions. By default, the dialog allows you to compare a column’s values with the specified constant values. If the UseNewCustomFilterDialog option is enabled, the custom filter dialog will allow you to compare a column’s values with another column’s values.

Note: you can provide your own custom filter dialog. Handle the ColumnView.CustomFilterDialog event for this purpose.
