Filtering boolean column

[Maciej Aniserowicz]

Hi,

I fill the grid like this:

bindingSource.DataSource = typeof(MyClass); //MyClass has a property of boolean type which are represented by checkboxes in the grid as well as string properties

grid.EnableFiltering = true;
grid.MasterGridViewTemplate.EnableFiltering = true;

grid.DataSource = bindingSource;

//refresh the binding source

As you can see, I enable filtering programatically. The problem is that no filtering for bool columns is available. I can filter text columns by manually entering some text in the filter row (however no menu/editor/designer is shown for this, I can only enter text and the LIKE operator is applied automatically), but there is no way to filter checkbox columns.

What can be the cause of such strange behavior, how can I solve this problem?

Thanks,

Maciej Aniserowicz

Hi Maciej Aniserowicz,

Yes, the default value for filtering of boolean columns is disabled. You should use the filter cell menu to change the predicate from none to equals for example. Just click on the funnel button. If this is not the case, please give me a detailed description about how to reproduce the issue and I will be glad to assist you further.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Thanks for the advice, but the clicking on the button has no effect. As I wrote before, I can only enter text in text filter cells - i cannot choose the operator to be used.

This problem occurs only in this one grid. Maybe the type of data bound objects can cause this? Each instance has properties of the following types:

string, int, bool, Guid, DateTime?, my custom type

Other views work as expected...
