When using the filtering capabilities of the Custom List, arrows are drawn to the right of column captions.  To initiate a filter, click the appropriate arrow and select the necessary value to filter the contents of your grid.  Filter arrows are displayed in blue in the columns that contain selected values.  A filtered grid displays only the nodes that contain a specified value.  The grid pictured below is filtered to display records with an entry time of between 1pm and 3pm:

 

Custom_Filter_1pm_3pm

 

You can filter a value by more than one column simultaneously.  The ExpressQuantumGrid supports the following filter criteria:

 

 

Value                Description


All                Displays all nodes.        

 

Custom                Applies two criteria values within the current column using the comparison operators AND or OR.

 

Blanks                Displays only the nodes that contain a False value in a column.

 

NonBlanks        Displays only the nodes that contain a True value in a column.

 

Value                Displays only the nodes that contain the selected value.

 

 

Use the [X] close box to the left of the Filter Status Bar at the bottom of the Custom grid to cancel the current filter.

 

ss_noteNote: The Blanks and NonBlanks options are available only if the column you want to filter contains a blank cell.

 

The Custom AutoFilter window allows you to determine two conditions for a column.  The editor type for a value is determined by column type (for date columns, it is a date editor, for pick columns, it is a pick editor, etc.):

 

Custom_Autofilter

 

ss_noteNote: This filter only applies to the Custom list. It does not apply itself to the DateNav list like the "Text Filter" does.
