🔎 Glide: Search Box Tips and Tricks

Thanks @Robert_Petitto.

Even if it is not a native Glide function, I share an approach to build ‘Advanced Search’ feature for end-users. Objective being to have different choice components which are independent the one from the other

=> IN DATA EDITOR: Tab: [Project]

  • User email

  • Project TYPE

  • Project STATUS

  • Project VISIBILITY

  • User Specific TYPE

  • Single Value TYPE

  • User Specific STATUS

  • Single Value STATUS

  • User Specific VISIBILITY

  • Single Value VISIBILITY

  • Template Origin data: 123 (:warning: no space), set origin columns

  • Template USC: 123 (:warning: no space), set USC columns

==> IN SCREEN:

  • 3 choices components
  • 1 Inline list filtered with if
    . TP2 empty → user email
    . TP2 = TP1 → user email
    . TP2 included in TP1 → user email
    Else “empty”

NB: for the dynamic “Sort by”, the approach is here.
