XdevContainerFilterComponent

The XdevContainerFilterComponent is an effective filter component with which you can search and filter all the tables and list components. The end user can independently collect the filter condition at runtime. For this, you must link the XdevContainerFilterComponent only to one UI component, which should be searchable, in which you select an XdevTable or XdevListSelect under Properties > Container.

1. Insert an XdevTable in the GUI Builder.
2. Drag an entity, e.g. Products, to the XdevTable using drag and drop.
3. Under Properties > Entity > Property, click on ....
4. In the following properties wizard, select the properties (data fields) that should be displayed as a column. 
5. Click on OK.
6. Insert an XdevContainerFilterComponent via the XdevTable.
7. Under Properties > Container click on null and select the XdevTable.
8. Under Properties > Container > Searchable Properties click on ... and determine, which columns should be searchable.
