Filter Information

The "Filter Information" element belongs to the "Filter" element category.

It provides information about the status of the filter applied to a dependent element, such as when a value picklist filters a dependent view table. The filter information then displays a button showing the currently active filter, such as Category A or B. Clicking this button will disable the filter.

 

You can find the filter information in the "Applications" module under "Elements. " You can create a new filter by dragging and dropping the element from here onto the workspace.

You can find all the information you need to create elements here.

The filter information properties dialog box opens automatically when new filter information is created. The Properties dialog box for an existing filter entry can be opened by double-clicking the element on the workspace, selecting "Properties" from the context menu, or choosing "Edit / Properties" from the main menu, provided the filter entry is selected on the workspace.
