How to: |
There are three ways to add filters to a page in WebFOCUS Designer:
The Quick Filter button appears on the toolbar with the badge icon showing the number of unbound filters.
Note: The quickest way to create parameterized content featuring the same set of parameters is to start by creating a Reporting Object with desired parameters, and then using the Reporting Object to create content. To do so, right-click your Reporting Object, point to New, and then click Chart or Report.
The filter bar with all available filters appears above your content.
Note: If all available filters display on the page, the Add Filter Controls setting is inactive.
Note: Another way to edit a control label is to double-click the field, type the new text, and press Enter.
The Combine option only applies to dates and sliders.
The Filter button appears on the toolbar, with the badge icon showing the number of available filters.
The Page Filter Configuration dialog box opens.
Note: If you prefer a floating modal window instead of a filter bar, click Create empty filter modal window.
The Add Filter Controls dialog box opens, and lists all available controls selected by default, as shown in the following image.
Note: When working with button sets, keep in mind that they look best when positioned in a single line.
The controls are added to the filter bar.
The Filter button appears on the toolbar, with the badge icon showing the number of available filters.
The Add Filter Controls dialog box opens, and lists all available controls selected by default.
The controls are added to the grid container.
Note: You can also drag a control from the filter bar to a grid container directly, if the filter bar is open and populated with controls.
An example of a simple layout featuring a grid container with filter controls is shown in the following image.
