Hi,
I thought it would be possible to filter grids and trees using an attribute. This does not seem to be the case.
I created an example where a grid and a tree are filtered using an attribute or a literal string to test this.
In this example, Part1 contains all other Parts. The rest should be self-explanatory.
EDIT: Found also that literal filtering works only for the first level, it doesn't work on the next levels, as expected. The new bsv includes Parts on a second level to show this also.
EDIT2: I consider this to be related to my other post about settings not being considered for lower level Parts (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12441). The lower level parts are definitely processed differently than the first level ones (here there is no additional Assembly object) and I think that's what's causing this inconsistent behavior.
bsv attached:
Bug or feature?

Re: Grid and tree filtering using an attribute?
No you cannot use filtering beyond the first level.
The Kendo framework allows it but AIM does not.

And not being able to filter with an attribute instead of a literal string?
Having a tree that doesn't filter all levels doesn't make sense..

Re: Grid and tree filtering using an attribute?
Raise it as a Wish List item. I've personally been asking for trees in queries and the ability to filter all levels for about 5 years.
Re: Grid and tree filtering using an attribute?
OK, well then, to support:
Having a tree that doesn't filter on all levels makes this widget practically useless (at least in any scenario I can think of) and this should be fixed.
I'd appreciate any response and/or any suggestion on how to work around this limitation in the meantime.
Thank you.
