Duplicate "Select All" Options in Filter

[kdisarnoParticipant]

For a certain page that has a grid on it, I comb through the $_GET’s looking to see if a particular value is set. If it is, I build the grid, (really its columns) with something like this:

{
  text: 'Planner',
  datafield: 'PlannerCode',
  filtertype: 'checkedlist',
  filter: <?php echo isset($_GET['whatever']) ? 'BuildPlannerFilter()' : 'null'; ?>
},

… the function looks something like this…

function BuildPlannerFilter()
{
	var filtergroup = new $.jqx.filter();
	var filter_or_operator = 1;
	var filtercondition = 'equal';

	for(var i = 0; i < planners.length; i++)
	{
		var filter = filtergroup.createfilter('stringfilter', planners[i], filtercondition);
		filtergroup.addfilter(filter_or_operator, filter);
	}

	return filtergroup;
}

The grid does indeed filter as expected, but 1) the checkboxes for those values are not checked, and, 2) the checkedlist has 2 x “(Select All)” at the top.

Is this a bug? If not, what is the best process for initializing a grid with a filter?

I have tried the following, but it didn’t work. I called it in the grid’s bindingcomplete, because it doesn’t appear to have any loaded/completed event.

	$("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('addfilter', "PlannerCode", filtergroup);

	$("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('applyfilters');

Hello kdisarno,

A better way to add filter is ready callback when the Grid is initialized.
Please, take a look at this demo:
http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxgrid/filtering.htm?light
Also, I would like to suggest you one more example ‘Grid Server Filtering’ in the PHP section.

I’ve got it working. Thanks Hristo!

Just to follow up:

1) The ready function was just what I was looking for. However…it’s really buried in there. I was expecting something like that to be in the Events section.

2) Applying the filters in ready is so much easier than using filter on the columns property. I have about 20+ columns so that section gets really out of hand, and you’d still have the bug(?) of two “Select All”‘s at the top of the checkedlist filter.

Hallo,

there is a bug in Version 4.5 (4.4 was ok) with “addfilter / applyfilters“.

“Select all“-filteritem is missing, if a column was setup by this way (like ready):
$(“#jqxgrid”).jqxGrid(‘addfilter‘, “column”, filtergroup);
$(“#jqxgrid”).jqxGrid(‘applyfilters‘);
The first item get the behavior from “Select all”. Therefore it’s also impossible the select the first regular item.

The way by columns[filter: filtergroup] works still again.

Hello fewr,

Could you provide an example that demonstrates this issue?
I try the example above and it seems to work fine.

Hi Hristo,

the user mflach is also in trouble with the same bug and created such pictures 🙂
