It would be great if the “values filtered by previous expressions” filter widget setting could be applied to expressions that use the contains operator. I can see that this capability now exists for the is operator, but when I switch the operator to contains, that setting disappears. Using a predefined list with the contains operator makes for a really great way to work with fields that contain multiple delimited values, but the ability to apply the logic to filter other filters would be great to see!
FYI - this is not related specifically to the 'contains' operator - it is the current behavior because predefined values only support honoring all right now.
This is a significant limitation, and I would also love to see this operation implemented. In my case, I have a "Region" filter and a "State" filter, and I want the "State" filter to dynamically adjust its list based on the selection made in the "Region" filter.
For example:
To implement this, you'd need to use a feature like "values filtered by previous expressions" or some form of dynamic filtering to ensure that the "State" filter only displays options relevant to the chosen region.
Without this dynamic filtering, you'd end up with a static list of all states in the "State" filter, which might include states that are not relevant to the selected region. This could lead to confusion and inefficiency when selecting filters
Yes please, this would be very important and useful for me too.
I agree, losing this functionality when using predefined values is a big miss. I hope ExB will add this shortly in the future.
