GrdPanel looses view on reconfigure

[Thomas233]

Hello,

if I reconfigure a GridPanel calling

grid.reconfigure(newStore,columnModel);

and bind it to a new store, it looses it`s view property.

How can i reconfigure the grid without loosing it`s view (i`ve defined a headerrow there, to perform custom filtering logic) and without creating a new grid (lot of overhead).

Please help me !

Thanks !

The whole point is that it's a totally different Store and ColumnModel. Different data structure, fields etc.

If its the same data structure, just new data, then just reload the Store.

Hi animal,

the new store is just like a copy of the old one with the same data structure and so on. I just need it to workaround the filterBy problematic with grindpanel and paging toolbar.

Thanks !

So you could just reload the same Store with new data?

I'm not sure what you are really doing.

Hi animal,

i try to workaround the problem i`ve described here:
http://extjs.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76549

My approach is to create a copy of an existing store which holds only the filtered records while the original store holds all records every time and then assign the copied store to the grid (so the paging toolbar gets refreshed as it needs to). I really need a very quick solution, because i do not have enough time to implement a complex one now.

Thanks !

Store filtering offers this.

You can filter a Store, and the Grid will update itself.

clear the filter and the Grid will update back.

Hi animal,

wow what a fast reply. Thanks ;-)

However, i`m already using store filtering by calling

store.filterBy()

The grid gets filtered correctly, but the problem is that the paging toolbar isn`t refreshing correctly (records are filtered on each page and do not get swapped to the first page).

Btw i can only filter the data locally.

Thanks !

You are using paging from the server?

And you filter locally to make the current page smaller?

Am I following right?

[Thomas233]

I am getting a whole bunch of data initially from the server, but then only filter it locally (such as surname and so on).

So you are not paging, you have all the data in one shot?
