Dear Forum,

I'd like to reduce the filter menu options in RadFilter but can find no way to do that. Does anyone have any guidance for me? I reduced the filter menu options for RadGrid by following this example:

Thanks,
Celeste

No, I really don't want to do this on the client with JavaScript. I want to do this server-side in the same way as it is done for RadGrid.

Hello Celeste,

To achieve this you can cancel creation of the filter options on ItemCreated event and build items you desire. Refer to this forum thread which elaborates on similar subject.

All the best,

I really don't see how that example will help me. Do you have any example that specifically addresses what I am trying to accomplish, preferably in C#?

Hi Celeste,

Do you want to remove some items from the operator dropdown (the one that contains Equals, Contains, Starts With, ....)?

Try this (Suppose that you want to remove IsEmpty and NotIsEmpty):

            RadFilter1.Localization.FilterFunctionIsEmpty = "";
            RadFilter1.Localization.FilterFunctionNotIsEmpty = "";

You can use the same way to remove the logical operators (such as AND, Or, etc) from the dropdown.

Or see my post two days ago:

This is a terrible way to remove items. It's changing the name of the item, which has the side effect of rendering the <a> tag used for the item with no inner-text. It's not really gone, it's just an inline element displayed with no size.
