Can RadGridView filter to be synchronized with ICollectionView?

[Alex]

In http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/gridview-sorting-programmatic.html said that sortin is automatically synchronize.
Is there a way to synchronize filter with ICollectionView?

Hi,

Since the grid filtering is very complex compared to plain predicate in ICollectionView this cannot be achieved.

Is there any sense in binding RadGridView.ItemsSource to CollectionView in this case?

[Vlad]

Hi,

 You can use our QueryableCollectionView instead plain ICollectionView for better integration.

How i can add filter to QuerableCollectionView that UI filtering mechanism be affected?
I don't have access to radGridView control. Only to collection.

Hi,

You can do this:

QueryableCollectionView.FilterDescriptors.Add(new FilterDescriptor("Name", FilterOperator.IsEqualTo, "John")));

But the grid has no way of knowing about this and updating its filtering UI.

If you want to filter programmatically and the UI to understand this and update itself, check out this example.
