How to clear filterItems in jqxGrid

[trigonoahParticipant]

Hi,

I’m having an issue trying to clear out the filteritems in a filterrow checkedlist dropdown. I’m dynamically changing the filteritems to match the grid’s data whenever the grid is changed/updated/filtered. There’s one case where nothing is displayed in the grid, so I want to clear out all selections from the filterrow dropdown accordingly. I’ve tried the following to no avail:

$('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('setcolumnproperty', 'SomeColumnDataField', 'filteritems',[]);
$('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('setcolumnproperty', 'SomeColumnDataField', 'filteritems',new Array());
$('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('setcolumnproperty', 'TSomeColumnDataFieldat', 'filteritems',null);

but none of these options seem to change the checkedlist dropdown in for the column’s filterrow. How can I go about emptying the filterItems for a column?

Hi trigonoah,

Have you tried with the “clearfilters” method?

$('#jqxGrid').jqxGrid('clearfilters');

Hi,

Trying the code you mention only removes filters that are applied to the jqxGrid. What I want to accomplish is to make the dropdown checkbox list of filter items be empty. Such that when the user clicks on the filter row dropdown, it only displays “Select All” with no other choices. Currently whenever I try to clear out the filter row items for a given column it defaults to populating the dropdown list.

I tried setting up filters on my site page. The problem is that you need to apply five types of filters by default, and I only want three types. As a result, I can’t remove unnecessary filters.

Hi TylerFryer,

Why do you need to apply five types of filters? You can apply any number of filters.
