AFA grids and tables
Across AFA, grids and tables have various sorting, paging, and filtering options.
Sort tables by columns |
Tables columns that can be used to sort have arrows in their headings. For example: Click a column heading to sort the table. To reverse the sorting order, click the column again. A table already sorted by a specific column displays only one arrow in its heading. For example: |
Page across tables |
When a table contains multiple pages, navigate between them using the controls below the table. For example:
Click an arrow button to move forward or back, or enter a page number in the page box. |
Filter table content |
Tables that can be filtered have an extra row just below the header. Enter data in the box to filter the table by that column data.
When filtering by multiple columns, the AND logic is used between filter texts. Note: Filtering tables with many rows may take some time. Administrators can disable filtering for tables over a specific size. |
