- image 01 - import settings for a table (field type multiselectbox). Notice that, given a column, there are more "keys" for each row;
- image 02 - filtering options for the columns: I provided given data values to use for filtering;
- image 03 - behaviour pre-cascading filter options: this is what I want... I need to see, distinctly, all my options values. So far so good.
- image 04 - applied cascading filtering (just bought the add-on): I need to filter first on the Category field-column (just a few options) than on the Keyword field-column. Unfortunately the cascadingĀ filter provides me not with a list ofĀ my filteredĀ data-value options but instead with the rows contente once that has been filtered.Ā
I was able to recreate this behavior on my end and it does look odd so I forwarded it to our developers to have a closer look and let me know the logic behind it.
I will update you as soon as I have more information.
This is how cascade filtering works.Ā If you have multiple values in two columns, once you filter per one column, the second column (which is dependant on the first column) will list all possible values for that column, and you wouldn't be able to choose only one value in the second column.
If you set the cascade filtering logic to be free (independent), it would work the same the other way around, meaning if you select "b", you would see "V L" and "L Z" in the "CATEGORIA" filter. The cascade filtering depends on the contents of the cell, and therefore, when you filter by one column, all upcoming columns will only offer possible combinations - you won't be able to filter per individual entries.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I think I'm in trouble... š±

Do I haveĀ a way to solve this?Ā Ā š

HiĀ Carmelo
Thank you for reaching out to us.
I was able to recreate this behavior on my end and it does look odd so I forwarded it to our developers to have a closer look and let me know the logic behind it.
I will update you as soon as I have more information.
We appreciate your time and patience.
Hello Carmelo
