Hi again, here is another tip for enhanced functionality to implement into a baserow:
It would be great to be able to save the filter configurations as custom presets. Similar like a views, where I also can create a new view and save it as a preset.
Often I need to reconfigure filter (sometimes with three or even more conditions), which takes time. This would be superuseful.
I also want to ask if there will be in some future releases possible to combine AND and OR when creating a filter conditions.
You can always create a view that has all these preset filters on it and then duplicate the view when you create a new view and it will have all the filters/sorts you have applied.
This won’t sync in real time when you change the default view but it would save you some time.
Yes, that’s true, but intuitively having the filter pretsets belongs to filter, not to views. And secondly, having filter settings presets under filter section would work (they would be available) across all views for the table, independently on how the view is configured (in terms of visible/invisible fields, their sorting etc.). Does it make sense?
Hi,
I just wanted to ask, if there are plans to implement the more complex filter functionality, as I mentioned in June. I mean, being able to combine AND and OR filter criteria + multilevel (hierarchical, or better said - nested).
I remember that some time ago I noticed some kind of concept of this functionality, I believe it was even presented here in the community portal by someone from baserow team, with a simple screenshot.
Hey @marcus, regarding this request. After the discussion, we have come to the decision that we should add a feature to copy the view configuration from another view. Users will be able to choose which parts they want to copy:
Filters
Sorts
Colors
Field width
Hidden fields
We believe that this implementation covers your use case. What do you think?
Yes, it sounds good. Thank you.
Will this be applicable also between different tables, not just the same table? If yes, then there are some things to solve, like: in source table there are some different data fields (or fields with different names, or both) than in destination table. And some other. I’m just thinking what if…
Will the copy configuration feature include the order of fields/columns?
I want to maintain a consistent field order across various filtered views. Currently, when duplicating or creating a new view, any changes to the original view’s field order are not reflected. Manually reordering fields is tedious.
