KS-Entry: Filter Items

Description

Purpose: Filter Items narrow a list of entries down, such that only entries with the filtered-for properties are shown. Filter Items are only needed if the list of entries is expected to be huge and rendered unusable for regularly occurring workflows.
Composition: Filter Items have an identifier outlining the filtered-for property, a data-entering control (text field, drop-down, date input field or repository selector) and a glyphed Close-Button. Filters Items can contain a single control or they can comprise two controls to specify a range.
Effect:  Filters have no effect unless the Apply-Button of the Filter Bar is clicked. Clicking the glyphed Close-Button will remove this Filter Item from the Filter Bar

Rival Elements: Search Field
