I have a Data grid which is populated with remote data 1 page at a time using OnRead. This requires custom sort and filtering in the OnRead method. When 

I was using filter row, and the filters were returned as FilterDescriptor, and their value was populated.

When I changed the setting to filtermenu, and started getting composite filters (which I wanted), the values were always null, regardless of what I entered. Is this the right way to get values from the composite filters? If so, why is the value of each FilterDescriptor always null?

 

                    if (filter is FilterDescriptor)
                    {
                        FilterDescriptor currFilter = filter as FilterDescriptor;

                        var member = currFilter.Member;
                        var operation = currFilter.Operator;
                        var value = currFilter.Value;
//value is not null
                    }
                    else if(filter is CompositeFilterDescriptor)
                    {
                        var filters = filter as CompositeFilterDescriptor;
                        foreach (var compFilter in filters.FilterDescriptors)
                        {
                            FilterDescriptor currFilter = compFilter as FilterDescriptor;

                            var member = currFilter.Member;
                            var operation = currFilter.Operator;
                            var value = currFilter.Value;
//value is always null
                        }
                    }

Hello Erin,

We have an open bug report regarding the behavior you are experiencing. You can see it from here. I have given your Vote for it and you can Follow it to receive email notifications on status updates. The workaround I could suggest for the time being would be to swap the FilterMode to FilterRow.
