ASPxGridListEditor.AllowFilterControlHierarchy Property

Specifies whether or not the Filter Builder dialog shows the properties hierarchy.

Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Web.Editors.ASPx

Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Web.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Web

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(false)]
public static bool AllowFilterControlHierarchy { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(False)>
Public Shared Property AllowFilterControlHierarchy As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	false	true, if the Filter Builder dialog shows the properties hierarchy; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The following image demonstrates the Filter Builder dialog when AllowFilterControlHierarchy is true (to the left) and when AllowFilterControlHierarchy is false (to the right).

When the AllowFilterControlHierarchy property is set to true, the filter dialog shows a hierarchical tree for members of the referenced or collection property. However, you cannot use the Equals operator and choose reference property values from a lookup in this mode. When AllowFilterControlHierarchy is set to false, the filter dialog shows a plain list of members, but you can use the Equals operator.

The Solution Wizard enables the AllowFilterControlHierarchy property in new projects. For this purpose, the wizard generates new projects with the FrameworkSettings.DefaultSettingsCompatibilityMode property set to Latest.
