[CLOSED] TemplateColumn and FilterHeader Plugin

[bbros]

Hello.
Referring to this example I would like to add a FilterHeader Plugin to the grid.

I added this line

<Plugins><ext:FilterHeader></ext:FilterHeader></Plugins>

Other columns' filter works, but I'm not able to make the filter work through the TemplateColumn.

Do you think there is a way to search inside an html template?

Thank you!

Hello @bbros!

I believe you would need to make a custom filter but, as the template column is actually a kind of equivalent to a custom renderer in an ordinary column, you'd need to repeat the math every record (if your formatting involves printing data derived from various actual record fields) during the tests.

For more efficient filtering maybe pre-processing the data displayed in the template column and turning it into a simple column (maybe with a template just for coloring and other formatting that shouldn't affect the filters) should be the way to go. This way the data shown in the column will be effectively in the store, thus being filterable, sortable, and so on.

I hope this helps!

ok thanks.
you can mark it as closed.
I'll put another textbox outside the grid with a custom filter over the store.
