We have a master detail grid that needs to support a search within one detail grid within it's master. How would I implement a search of the detail as well as the master through your search facility?

Hello,
A similar scenario is discussed in the dxDataGrid - How to implement the master-detail search panel ticket. Please refer to it for more information.

The answer you provided me is correct but just out of the box. I'm thinking there's another way to accomplish. this. I am putting together a search grid that has the flattened rows and columns of the child that I need to search for. The flatten search grid appears on focus of the search and then highlights what I'm looking for.
Once highlighted, The user picks what data they are looking for from the result. The non-searchable grid master and detail are then filtered or highlighted using API functions to filter and traverse the DOM elements of the grid.
I know that logically I've answered my own question here, I'm just asking for a best practice physical example to help me implement dynamic filtering and highlighting from a set of data keys obtained from my search results using the parallel search grid.
Hi David,
I have prepared a jsfiddle example illustrating how to implement search by the detail row using an additional invisible column. Please refer to it.
