Overview

Important Upgrade Notice (Data Widgets v3.0)

The configuration of drop-down filters for associations has changed in this version. The reference entity is no longer set in the column configuration but directly in the drop-down filter itself. As a result, existing filters that rely on associations will stop working until manually updated.

We are actively working on a conversion that will handle this automatically in a future 10.24 patch release.

Additionally for the Gallery widget, the configuration of drop-down sort widgets has changed. Sort attributes are now defined inside the drop-down sort widget itself, rather than in the surrounding Gallery widget. This means that existing sort configurations will also stop working until manually updated.

The Data Widgets module, is a packaged module that contains the following widgets:

• Data grid 2
• Gallery
• Tree node
• Filtering and Sorting widgets.

This module also includes all the styling, design properties and building blocks related to these widgets.

Data grid 2

The successor of the standard data grid widget for displaying content in a tabular form. It comes with many powerful new features and settings like support for widgets, row and cell coloring, responsive layout, accessibility and different paging options, like virtual scrolling.

Gallery

The Gallery widget is the successor to both the standard list view and template grid. It features a new responsive grid design, usage of the same filtering and sort widgets from Data grid 2 and settings like support for conditional styling, paging and empty placeholders.

Tree node

The tree node is a widget used to create a level in a tree UI. Multiple tree node widgets can be combined to create a tree view. The tree node widget is fully composable and comes with settings for animating and icon customization.

Filtering and Sorting widgets

The filtering and sorting can be used across the data widgets of the Data grid 2 and the Gallery. Out of the box there is filtering for text, numbers, dates, and the option to add drop-down filters for single or multiple selections.
