 Description   

Dynamic column filtering is a simple to use and understand concept to reduce the number of visible items shown in a list or tree. Together with searching and sorting, this feature will be powerful tool to deal with the sometimes huge amount of information a user has to skim through.

Dynamic column filtering is described on this concept page: http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/UX/Filtering+a+list+of+items

Also on that page is a mockup showing how the controls to enable filtering and for choosing the columns to show go and work together. An actual visual design does not exist yet.

In a future step, we'll provide a way to save the set of inputs to search, filtering and sort settings in a query, which can be re-run at a later point in time. This will enable the user to create custom views and maybe even apps, will be one cornerstone of the much requested reporting and saved lists functionality.

I'm linking the issue capturing the implementation of the new search, since we should only start implementing column filtering once we've changed the way search works from being a view to working as a filter.

Comment by Andreas Weder [ 30/Nov/12 ]

I'm attaching an example of a wonderful implementation of column filtering as done in JIRA 5.2 by Atlassian:

  • their attribute filters know all existing values and even feature an integrated search field
  • there's an option to add additional filter criteria ("More Criteria")

We could model our filters after theirs, since this is a very convincing, well working solution.

Added components to make it easier to filter issues.

Part of thew new UI framework that will be shipped with 6.2. Apps ported to the new framework can make use of column filtering.
