    Filter Summaries
    In This Topic

    DataFilter control allows you to configure the Checklist filter to implement the filter summaries using AggregateType property of the FilterSummary class and by assigning AggregateType Enum. The feature makes it easier for you to analyze the count, sum, maximum and minimum values of the filter items.

    Let us take a use case to display count and maximum values of the filter items in a checklist filter. In the image and example below, count of the individual filter items of the Brand filter are listed and maximum price values for the filter items in the Category filter are listed.

    The image depicts an application showing the Datafilter showing filter summaries.

    You can use the following code to display the count of the filter items and the maximum value of a filter item corresponding to the data.

    Private Sub C1DataFilter_FilterAutoGenerating(sender As Object, e As C1.DataFilter.FilterAutoGeneratingEventArgs)
    Select Case e.[Property].Name
        Case "Name"
            Dim brandFilter = CType(e.Filter, C1.WPF.DataFilter.ChecklistFilter)
            brandFilter.ItemsSource = _products
            brandFilter.ValueMemberPath = "Name"
            'Define the summary for the Checklist filter defined for Brand Field.
            'This summary displays the count of cars available for each brand.
            brandFilter.FilterSummary.AggregateType = AggregateType.Count
            brandFilter.FilterSummary.Label = "Count"
            brandFilter.FilterSummary.PropertyName = "Name"
            'Select all the filter items
            brandFilter.SelectAll()
        Case "Color"
            Dim categoryFilter = CType(e.Filter, C1.WPF.DataFilter.ChecklistFilter)
            categoryFilter.ItemsSource = _products
            categoryFilter.ValueMemberPath = "Color"
            'Define the summary for the Checklist filter defined for Category Field.
            'This summary displays the maximum price of cars for the specific category.
            categoryFilter.FilterSummary.AggregateType = AggregateType.Max
            categoryFilter.FilterSummary.Label = "Max"
            categoryFilter.FilterSummary.PropertyName = "Price"

            'Select all the filter items
            categoryFilter.SelectAll()
        Case "Price"
            Dim priceFilter = CType(e.Filter, C1.WPF.DataFilter.RangeFilter)
            priceFilter.Maximum = _products.AsEnumerable().Max(Function(x) x.Price)
            priceFilter.Minimum = _products.AsEnumerable().Min(Function(x) x.Price)
            priceFilter.Increment = 1000
            priceFilter.Digits = 0
        Case Else
            e.Cancel = True
