Table Filter Action

Table Filter

The Table Filter Action iBloc instantly hides or shows table rows that contain a given word or phrase without requiring a page refresh. This is great for prototyping dynamic pre-set filters on data-driven pages, such as search results.

Current Version: 1.0
Supported iRise Studio Versions: 8.5 – 8.9
Supported Browsers: IE 7.0+, Firefox 3.5+, Safari 4.0+, Chrome 8.0+, iOS Safari
Works in iRise iPhone and iPad Apps: Yes

What does it do?

  • Instantly hides or shows table rows which contain a specified text string.
  • Works on static tables as well as tables with repeated rows (data-driven).

How can I use it?

  1. Drag the Table Filter iBloc onto any empty area of the canvas.
  2. In the properties panel, select Show or Hide.
  3. Enter the text string to match against the table row content.
  4. Enter a Key string to use to identify the table rows to apply filtering to (default is ‘Filter’).
  5. Insert the Key string into the name property of any table rows that you want the Table Filter to act on (data and/or static rows).
  6. Connect any iRise widget to the iBloc using any event (like any iRise Action).

Can I see it work?

Here’s a brief demo of the Table Filter iBloc in action and how to use it in Studio.

Can you share some ProTips?

  • Place hidden text widgets in your table rows to create filters based on information not visible to the user (see the demonstration video for an example).
