4.1.12  Filtering Table Columns

In addition to applying filtering conditions to a table using the Filter Conditions feature, you can also apply quick filters to individual tables columns.

The 'Filter' option is only available if the dashboard contains a Selection Container component.

To apply a quick filter to a table, follow the steps below:

1. If the Viewsheet does not contain a Selection Container, add a Selection Container to the Viewsheet. See Selection Container for more information.

2. Right-click on the column that you wish to filter and select 'Filter' from the context menu.

 

This opens the filtering control for the column, a Selection List for a string-type column, and a Range Slider for a numerical-type or date-type column.

 

3. Make the desired selection using the selection control, and click away from the column to submit. (See Selection List and Range Slider for more information about these controls.)

The selections that you make are shown in the Selection Container.

 

To remove the filter from a particular column, follow the steps above, and press the 'Clear Selection' button on the selection control.

 

To remove all filters on the table, press the 'Clear Selections' button in the Selection Container.
