I have a page where the user can 1) go directly to the grid page unfiltered or 2) go to the gird via a filter (set programically). In this case neither of the client events runs. What I need to do is to duplicate the Filtered/Unfiltered message that displays in the status bar. I need to know at anytime what the status of the filter state is. Users don't look at the status bar so I need a way to tell the user via a RED MESSGE at top of grid, the filter status. Is this possible?

I created a simple sample of WebGrid based on Hans's sample. The grid shows Customers data from Northwind.mdb file. Filtered columns are programmatically added during PrepareDataBinding server-side event in order to emulate scenario 1 and scenario 2 (as shown in the above quoted paragraph).

I’m using OnAfterInitialize client-side event of WebGrid to get the filter state of WebGrid which can't be handled by either OnColumnFilter or OnAfterResponseProcess event. This event invokes ShowFilterInformation() JavaScript function which will display filter information in a text area element.

function WebGrid1_OnAfterInitialize(controlId)
{
    var WebGrid1 = ISGetObject(controlId);
    ShowFilterInformation(WebGrid1);
    return true;
}
function ShowFilterInformation(controlId)
{
    var textArea1 = document.getElementById("textArea1");
    if (controlId.RootTable.FilteredColumns.length > 0)
    {
        textArea1.value = "WebGrid1 is filtered" + "\n" 
                            + "FilteredColumns detail information:" + "\n";
        for (var i = 0; i < controlId.RootTable.FilteredColumns.length; i++)
        {
            var filteredColumns = controlId.RootTable.FilteredColumns[i];
            textArea1.value += "Column " + filteredColumns.ColumnMember.toString() + " is "
                                + filteredColumns.FilterType.toString() + " "
                                + filteredColumns.FilterText.toString() + "\n";
        }
    }
    else
        textArea1.value = "WebGrid1 is not filtered";
    return true;
}

Last, simply do the same in OnAfterResponseProcess client-side event to show filter information when user interacts from client-side.

Please have the attached sample file evaluated on your end and let us hear whether this helps or not.

I installed IdeaBlade 6.1.15 and Intersoft ClientUI 2013. When I run WPF.UXGridView.Samples.DevForce project, the same problem: “Could not load file or assembly 'IdeaBlade.Core, Version=6.1.14.0, …” persist on my local end.

After compile completed, there is one warning which says: Found conflicts between different versions of the same dependent assembly.

Double-click on the warning message and VS will prompt us to fix these conflicts by adding binding redirect records in the app.config file.

Save the changes and run the project once again. The reported problem should be no longer persisting.

For more detail, I enclosed the modified app.config file as attachment.

Hope this helps.

WebScheduler has OnEventSelected client-side event that will gets or sets the event handler when an event is selected. Please try to use this event to show a more detail frame and let us know whether this helps or not.

A notification will be posted within this thread or through the official newsletter when the feature is implemented.
Thank you for very much for the feedback.

Could you please inform us about how you set the styling of your column header?

I suspect that the way you set the column header style is not correct.

<ISWebGrid:WebGridColumn Caption="<div style='font-family:Comic Sans MS'>CustomerID</div>"
    DataMember="CustomerID" Name="CustomerID" Width="100px">
</ISWebGrid:WebGridColumn>

Please try to set the column header style by using “declarative way” or “server side code way” (as shown below).

declarative way

<LayoutSettings AllowContextMenu="True" AllowSelectColumns="Yes">
    <HeaderStyle Font-Names="Comic Sans MS" Font-Size="8pt" />
</LayoutSettings>

or server side code way

protected void WebGrid1_InitializeLayout(object sender, ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.LayoutEventArgs e)
{
    WebGrid1.LayoutSettings.HeaderStyle.Font.Name = "Comic Sans MS";
    WebGrid1.LayoutSettings.HeaderStyle.Font.Size = FontUnit.Point(8);
}

Hope this help.
