Can Instant Filtering on Distinct Checkboxes be turned off?

[Bob]

Our users have requested that we not perform an immediate filter when a distinct filter checkbox is clicked.  They would rather be able to select multiple checkboxes, then press the Filter button.  We call a web service to retrieve data each time filtering is performed, so this has become a performance issue.

Is there an easy way to turn off the instant filtering, or do we have to write a completely custom control?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

 You can set IsFilteringDeferred to True for desired column to achieve your goal.

Thank you Vlad.  We have not upgraded to the latest version yet, so I don't have this property right now. This will be very easy, so I'll use it to encourage our team to upgrade.

Hi Vlad,

I have a question - it is possible to set IsFilteringDeferred default value for all the RadGridView columns (a RadGridView property) ?

And, the And/Or dropdown in field filter section send automatiquely the request to server. Is it a bug ?
I use the 2012.1.0416 version of telerik for Silverlight

Thanks
Yvan

Hi,

RadGridView does not have such a property. You should set it for each column that you want deferred.

As for the behavior that you are describing, it is definitely a bug and I have logged it here.

I hope to be able to fix it next week. I will let you know once I manage to resolve it.

Hello,

We have fixed this issue and it will be working as expected when our next "Latest Internal Build" is released.

All the best,
