I would like to add a filter to column in my grid which is a lookup dropdown populated by a database table. This is useful for filtering a column that is guaranteed to only have a discrete set of distinct values.

Is such a thing possible in the MVC grid? I've checked the documentation but can't find anything.

An example would be a column entitled "Fruit" where the only possible values that ever appear are "Apple", "Banana", "Apricot". I would like to put a select list in the column filter to allow the user to select the value "Apple" (not type it in to the free text filter field) and filter the grid accordingly.

Hello Steven,

Currently this is not possible. The grid would display a lookup select list only for members which are enum.
