GridGroupingControl and Filter bar

[Rekha Mallavarapu]

Hi,

I have the following question about GridGroupingControl in the 5.1 Beta version:
I am currently using the 5.1.0.37 version:

- Can I have CheckBoxes in the filterbar dropdown menu so that the user can filter on multiple values for the same column? I really need this feature for my current applictaion.

- How do I change the font size of the Filter bar dropdown menu items. I tried to change as follows:





Nothing happens??

- In the new version, when I have one colon (:) in the filter dropdown menu data, the filter works now in the new version. But if I have two colons (example - x:y:z), the filter doesn't work.

Any help would be great!!

Thanks!!

Hi Rekha,

GridGroupingControl doesn't have properties to apply the color and font setting to the Filterbar.Alternately You can apply the styles for Filterbar from the Client side using the below script. Please take a look at the below code and let us know if it helps.

$script type="text/javascript">
function ComboFontStyle()
{
//Gets the element inside the Select tag
var getElement= document.getElementsByTagName("select");
//iterate through the collection of Select tag to apply styles
for(var i=0;i {
if(getElement[i].id.indexOf("GridGroupingControl1~FB~0~_TOPGROUP")!=-1)
{
//Apply styles for corresponding combo
getElement[i].style.fontSize = '100%';
getElement[i].style.fontWeight='bold';
getElement[i].style.color='Purple';
}
}
}
$/script>

Please call the above ComboFontStyle() funtion below the form tag in aspx file as well as in "AfterCallbackResponseProcessedScript" of the GridGroupingControl such as

.
.
$/form>
$script>
ComboFontStyle()
$/script>

We will get back to you regarding your remaining queries on or before monday.

Thanks for being patience.

Hi Rekha,

We noticed that Record Filter is not working as long as when the data contains more than one ":" characters(Ex:DateTime Field). But It is working fine when Record filter is hard coded like shown below.

this.GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.RecordFilters.Add("[Time] like '1:23:12'");

We confirm this as a bug. Could you please open a new Direct-Trac incident with "Forum Id - Forum Subject" as Subject line to proceed towards the bug fix.

Currently we dont support to filter multiple values for a same column. Could you please let us know the importance of this feature so that It will helpfull for us to prioritize this features request and we will do our best to fulfill your requirements.

Hi Gokulkumar,

Thanks for your reply.

I am opening a direct trac for the filter bar colon issue. I need this resolved ASAP since the product delivery to the customer is time critical.

Also, the feature "filter bar with check boxes" is also very important for the application I am working on. This feature is needed for my product very soon by end of May. Is it possible?
