WinForms Filter Key Features
Filter Different Data Types
The DataFilter control provides many types of filters, including bool, range, date range, checklist, calendar, and custom filters. These filters can be generated automatically by the control, according to the data. Filters can be added programmatically. Filter criteria can also be serialized deserialized to XML to save and load filter expressions as needed quickly.
Customize the Filter UI
The accordion-based filtering UI can be attached to any control sharing a data source or plugged into an info screen, and the appearance is highly customizable. Provide additional information about the filters in a custom tooltip. Show aggregated filter summaries to analyze the count, sum, maximum, and minimum values of the filter items.
Filter any Data-Aware Control
The DataFilter control can pair with any data-aware control like grids, lists, treeviews, charts, or maps. It also works with standard out-of-the-box Microsoft controls.
Show Filter Summaries
The DataFilter control allows you to configure and display aggregate summaries for each filter. This feature makes it easier for you to analyze the count, sum, maximum, and minimum values of the filter items.
Visually Build Expressions with FilterEditor
The additional FilterEditor component works with the DataFilter and enables the end-user to quickly build category-based and/or filter expressions. The control can be bound to a data source, and it will automatically provide visual options to create expressions based on available fields.
Build Complex, Category-Based Filter Expressions
Complex filter expressions can be created with a combination of logical operators over data fields and a list of available filters. Build continuous AND/OR expressions with any number of conditions.
