In-App Filter/Sort option

Hello everyone,

is the following example when adding a new tab a bug?

  1. Layout “Cards” => Features “In-App Sort/Filter” are available
  2. Layout “Details” => Component “Inline List” => “Cards” => no “In-App Sort/Filter” available

I need to use the second method as I have to add a Text-area at the top.
With the first method I don’t see any option to add a text area above the Cards-images.

Greetings

It’s not a bug, when you use a details view you can’t use the in-app sort/filter as there might be multiple components (let’s say multiple inline lists with information coming from different sheets) and using a sort/filter will be confusing.

Yes, I would understand it if there are more than one lists added to the tab.
But when there are only one list element and the rest is a text area, I would like to still have the sort/filter option. Or I can “link” this option directly to an element.

Perhaps the team can help.

Providing we don’t have a native way now, a workaround would be using a choice component that points to a user-specific column and let the users filter the inline list by that.

Not ideal, as they can’t choose multiple options, but at least that would work.

Yeah, for “filter”, but not for “sort”.
Thanks for this idea. I will see what is possible with it, as I didn’t use the element yet.

You could use the same method with sort as well, but hiding or showing different inline lists based on which sort option was chosen from a choice component.
