Filter Icon Not Highlighted
Environment
| Product | Grid for Blazor | TreeList for Blazor |
Description
When using the Grid for Blazor, applying a filter programmatically on initialization does not highlight the header filter icon. This behavior is expected when filters are manually applied by the user, indicating which columns are currently filtered.
Cause
The issue arises due to the direct use of FilterDescriptor without wrapping it in a CompositeFilterDescriptor. The CompositeFilterDescriptor is necessary to group individual filters and ensure the UI reflects the applied filters correctly.
Solution
To highlight the filter menu icon upon initialization, wrap the filter definitions in a CompositeFilterDescriptor. This approach ensures the Grid's UI accurately displays which filters are active.
Below is an example demonstrating how to initialize a Grid with a predefined filter on the "Released" column that highlights the filter icon correctly:
@using Telerik.DataSource
<TelerikGrid Data="@GridData"
Pageable="true"
PageSize="5"
Sortable="true"
FilterMode="@GridFilterMode.FilterMenu"
Groupable="true"
OnStateInit="@( (GridStateEventArgs<Product> args) => OnGridStateInit(args) )">
<GridColumns>
<GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Name)" />
<GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Released)" />
<GridColumn Field="@nameof(Product.Discontinued)" />
</GridColumns>
</TelerikGrid>
@code {
private List<Product> GridData { get; set; }
private async Task OnGridStateInit(GridStateEventArgs<Product> args)
{
var discontinuedColumnFilter = new CompositeFilterDescriptor()
{
FilterDescriptors = new FilterDescriptorCollection() {
new FilterDescriptor()
{
Member = "Released",
Operator = FilterOperator.IsLessThan,
Value = DateTime.Today,
MemberType = typeof(DateTime)
}
}
};
args.GridState.FilterDescriptors.Add(discontinuedColumnFilter);
}
protected override void OnInitialized()
{
GridData = new List<Product>();
var rnd = new Random();
for (int i = 1; i <= 12; i++)
{
GridData.Add(new Product()
{
Id = i,
Name = $"Product {i}",
Released = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-rnd.Next(1, 365)).AddYears(-rnd.Next(1, 10)).Date,
Discontinued = i % 3 == 0
});
}
}
public class Product
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public DateTime Released { get; set; }
public bool Discontinued { get; set; }
}
}
