Remarks

Use the PopupExcelFilterGrouping property to group filter values in the current column’s filter menu by another column. The code snippet below groups tasks by dedicated employees.

C#

colTask.OptionsFilter.PopupExcelFilterGrouping = "Employee;Task";

VB.NET

colTask.OptionsFilter.PopupExcelFilterGrouping = "Employee;Task"

As a result, filter values are displayed in a tree structure.

In the case of a Code First data source, you can annotate data fields with the FilterGroup attribute using the same syntax in the attribute parameter.

C#

[Utils.Filtering.FilterGroup("Employee;Task")]
public string Task { get; set; }

VB.NET

<Utils.Filtering.FilterGroup("Employee;Task")>
Public Property Task As String
