There is a demo (Header and Footer) where you have shown how we can implement a filter component for column values in the header.

We're now facing the problem, that we build some columns of the fixgrid at runtime - and your example for filtering is built rather statically.

So my thoughts were: would it be possible to include such a feature per default in the fixgrid? Offer a filter component (textfield) for all _filterable_ columns (eg. all labels, text fields, ..)? This would give the fixgrid a huge benefit for the future

I hope you can consider adding such a feature

Hi Manuel,

the FIXGRID itself should stay as basic and as UI-only as possible.

Such add-on function should be from our perpsective part of a page bean component., which then assembles the FIXGRID with corresponding fields internally. - At the end it also means that the FIXGRID must bind to some more sophisticated data structure (currently the grid holds all rendered items, in a filter scenario, it should both hold all items and the rendered ones in parallel).

We implemented such page bean component as part of the DOF framework: please check in the demo workplace: Addons => DOF => Rendering a list of beans.

Could you take look into this demo?

Regards, Björn

Thanks for the information - I did not find this before..

Just two more questions:

a) is it possible to render columns with icons/different background/... (depending on the row data) in DOF too?
b) where/how did you pass the meta data in the "Rendering a list of beans" demo? I did not find it (yet)

thanks in advance

Hi,

we will extend the demo workplace - where this information is missing. New update is planned for this noon. So we ask you for patience on this...

Thanks + Regards! Björn

Update 20200914 is published in the meanwhile. Please check the new page bean component CCDataGridView in the demo workplace ("News" section).

Awesome new component! great job

But I do miss some smaller things (especially for column configuration):

- action listener
- abbreviated text
- tooltip (although I saw this has been set to the title)
- background color (property)
- bgpaint
- drag and drop support (dragsend, dropreceive)
- maybe sortreference? (but putting the property name to the sort reference would be OK for me)

And if it would be doable - column sums/totals (like in the SAP ALV Grid)

Thanks for listening

Hi Manuel,
this component was built for Extense-ability! ;-)
In the Developer's Guide there is a corresponding chapter (Page Bean Components), please check...
Regards, Björn

...and some info.

1. @events: there is a call back (extend component's DefaultListener class) for reacting on select/execute

2. @abbreviated text: this is so easy for us to add - we will do this.

3. @background color: there is a callback in the component's listener. See methods calculateRowBackground/Foreground

4. @sortreference: yes default is propertyName is sortReference

There is also a mechanism to bring up a popup menu in Listener: reactOnPopupMenuLoad/Invoke

Regards, Björn

Thanks for the valuable input - this looks promising to me.

I'll try to adopt my code to the new component in the next days
