Clear search on open ComboBox

[Janusz]

I have ComboBox, with seted filter to "contins" and serverFiltering to true.
It is possible to clear previous filter (when user enter text into CB) ? because now user need to clear whole combo box to reset filter.

It will be good to have dit option on forum :)

One more think: I know that is possible with search('') but it cause open CB.

Hello Janusz,

One possible way to accomplish your goal is to clear the input value and reset the data source filters:

//clear text
combobox.text("");

//reset filters
combobox.dataSource.filter({});

Ok, it will work :
combobox.dataSource.filter({});

but I lost cascade filter :)

Hello Janusz,

Indeed, you will clear all filters with .filter({}) method call. What you can do is to get the applied filters, strip only the one you want and re-filter the source. This is something that the widget itself does (link to the source).
