[CLOSED] ListFilter values

[cwolcott]

When I specify "Options" for the ListFilter can I also provide the values I want returned (e.g., "D", "C", "F") or am I stuck with "Dog", "Cat", "Fish" as the return values.

<ext:GridFilters ID="ActiveUsersFilters" runat="server" >
   <Filters>
      <ext:ListFilter DataIndex="AnimalNm" Options="Dog, Cat, Fish" />
   </Filters>
</ext:GridFilters>

Hi,

You should use the ListFilter GetValue.

Example

<ext:ListFilter DataIndex="animal" Options="Dog, Cat, Fish">
    <GetValue Handler="var selected = this.menu.getSelected(); // this is returned by default
                        // transform the selected array as you need
                        return selected;" />
</ext:ListFilter>

OK, this works for me. Thanks ...

<ext:ListFilter DataIndex="animal" Options="Dog, Cat, Fish">
   <GetValue Handler="var selected = this.menu.getSelected();
            var newValues = new Array(selected.length);
            for (var i in selected) {
               switch (selected[i]) {
                  case 'Dog': newValues[i] = 'D'; break;
                  case 'Cat': newValues[i] = 'C'; break;
                  case 'Fish': newValues[i] = 'F'; break;
                  default: newValues[i] = '';
               }
            }
     return selected;" />
</ext:ListFilter>
