Filter input placeholder text

[Michael]

Hi,

Is it possible to add placeholder text to an input (text box) shown on the grid row filter?

Thanks,

Michael

I should add, I achieved what I wanted with the following code but I was looking for a "cleaner" built in property to set on the grid if it exists?

var today = new Date();
$("[data-text-field=formatted_dob]").attr("placeholder", moment(today).format("DD MMM YYYY"));

Hello Michael,

There is no built-in way to achieve this. And what you do is using a standard jQuery method, so I am not really sure why you are considering it "dirty"?

Hi,

I'm looking for the same thing to add a placeholder for all the filter text boxes in the grid. For date columns the filter text box should show the date format like mm\dd\yyyy. How to achieve this for all columns in the grid?
