DataTable: serverMultiSelectFilter with "Submit" or "Apply" button

Webix JS
#1

Hello guys!
Is it possible to add an Apply or Submit button to the default serverMultiSelectFilter in DataTable control? I know that button is possible for the MultiSelect contol itself with button=true:

I also tried to set inputConfig: { button: true } for the column

but it does not work.

Hello, Alena!
Thank you for the response! I think it should included in default filter imlementation. I recommend you to add a setting for the contol, someting like:

suggest: { 
    button: true,
    buttonText: "Submit",
    submitByButton: true
}

with default value submitByButton = false (for backward compartibility).
Because I suppose the functionality I’ve asked in the initial question is expected by most users. Should I sumbit the feature request somewhere, or you can do it yourself?

Hello, @Acrux

There is a possibility to add a button. As the control’s popup is supplied with a “select” button out of the box, you could add it and change the name by:

suggest:{ 
button: true,
buttonText:"Submit",
            }

But this button will remain just a “select” button. Changing the value in the filter (and, accordingly, filtering) occurs by selecting the option, regardless of the presence of the button.
Here is the snippet: Code Snippet
If the filtering should be triggered only by clicking on the Submit button, the default filter has to be customized. In the following snippet, filtering is applied on button click (if the button was enabled in the filter config)
