Grid Columnchooser search in columns (contains / startswith)

[Sierd Weidema]

We would like to have the ColumnChooser of the Grid to search for columns using a 'contains' instead of  the default 'startswith'. Is this possible?

Hi Sierd Weidema,

You can achieve your requirement by setting the “columnChooserSettings.operator” property as “contains”. Please refer to the below code example and the API link for more information.

@Html.EJS().Grid("Grid").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.parentData). Columns(col =>

{

    .  .  .

}).ShowColumnChooser(true).Toolbar(new List<string>(){ "ColumnChooser"}).Load("load"). Render()

 

 

<script>

    function load() {

        var grid = document.getElementById('Grid').ej2_instances[0];

        grid.columnChooserSettings = { operator: "contains" };

    }

</script>
