Display data in listview only after user enters information

created 8 years ago

I need a listview to display data only after the user starts filtering, just like the lookuplistviews.
This is the scenario:

  1. When opening a page containing the view, the view should no even try to display the data.
  2. When the user starts searching (applies a filter), the data should be displayed.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks.

Hello Jose,

If you are going to use the Auto Filter Row for filtering, check the following topic: How to: Filter Large List Views using the Auto Filter Row.
If you are going to use the Full Text Search action from the toolbar, add a filter with the FilterController.FullTextSearchCriteriaName ID to the ListView.CollectionSource.Criteria collection when the ListView is shown. This filter will be overridden by the Full Text Search action when it is executed.
In addition, check the How to show filter dialog before showing ListView example that implements a similar task.
If you need further assistance, describe the required behavior in greater detail.
