    Customizing the List of Filter Items
    In This Topic

    You can customize the text of the default filter items in the drop-down filter list. The items that are displayed in the drop-down filter list are column filter definitions. You can customize the text of those by changing the value of the AllString, BlanksString, and NonBlanksString properties.

    Using Code

    Create a row filter and set the filter strings.

    Example

    This example creates custom filter items for the drop-down list.

    C#
    Copy Code
    FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle instyle = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle();
    FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle outstyle = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle();
    instyle.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
    outstyle.BackColor = Color.Gray;
    FarPoint.Web.Spread.StyleRowFilter rf = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.StyleRowFilter(FpSpread1.Sheets[0], instyle, outstyle);
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter = rf;
    // Assign filter and customize filter options.
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter.AddColumn(1);
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter.ShowFilterIndicator = true;
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter.AllString = "Show All";
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter.BlanksString = "Show The Blanks";
    FpSpread1.Sheets[0].RowFilter.NonBlanksString = "Show The Non-Blanks"; 
    
    VB
    Copy Code
    Dim instyle As New FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle()
    Dim outstyle As New FarPoint.Web.Spread.NamedStyle()
    instyle.BackColor = Color.Yellow
    outstyle.BackColor = Color.Gray
    Dim rf As New FarPoint.Web.Spread.StyleRowFilter(FpSpread1.Sheets(0), instyle, outstyle)
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter = rf
    ' Assign filter and customize filter options.
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter.AddColumn(1)
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter.ShowFilterIndicator = True
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter.AllString = "Show All"
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter.BlanksString = "Show The Blanks"
    FpSpread1.Sheets(0).RowFilter.NonBlanksString = "Show The Non-Blanks"
