RadDataGrid programmatic filter information

[Adam]

I was wondering if there was a way to retrieve RadDataGrid filtered information, such as the column header or mapping name and what was selected in the DistinctValuesFilterDescriptor? I'm trying to create separate controls above the RadDataGrid that will show applied filters and a clear filters button.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello Adam,

The filtered information can be retrieved from the FilterDescriptors collection of the RadDataGrid control. However, it does not provide information about the column header or the mapped property but contains the filtered data.

With this in mind, I logged a new feature request in our feedback portal to improve the filter descriptors of this control to provide more information. It can be found at the following link where it can be voted for, as well as followed, in order to get notified via e-mail when its status gets changed:

DataGrid: Improve the filter descriptors to provide information about the filter operator and member

As a token of gratitude for bringing this to our attention, I have updated your Telerik points.

With this being said, I hope the provided information will be of help to you.
