Table Filter through Select List

July 05, 2019, 01:50:49 AM

Hello,

Im wondering if there is a way i can offer a table list with predefined filter options that the user can choose.
For example i have a table with a date field and i it would be cool if there were a listbox on the table list page where the user can select
the different dates from the date field. The Table would then filter to all entries of the chosen date.

Is this possible ?

@nepo77 yeah there is.

Note: Step 1 to 5 are indicated in the image(PageDesign.png) below.

1. Click on PageDesign.
2. Select the ListPage you want to work on.
3. Shows you the list of Page Filter Component Available for use.
4. This is the actual filter component you are looking for.

5. Drag the Select Field and drop in the step 5 area shown in the image(PageDesign.png) below, click on the item you just dropped and configure.

Hi again

Do you know if there is a way to remove the filter button? The component seems to work fine by just choosing from the list. And the Filter Button is way to far down anyway, so id rather have it gone.

@nepo77‍ from the previous image posted in step 5, you click on the filter button you added and click on the x button above the refresh button, in between step 5 and step 3 and below step 2.

Thats the thing, i didnt add a filter button -just the dropdown menu component and it adds the filter button which is not necessary. The button itself doesnt show in the component list to delete it.

Click on the column that contains the filter components and set HasForm to False. This will hide the filter button.
