EA1 - Filter on table Data Tab

entering a statement into the filter on the data tab of a table works fine. However, once you click on another tab - e.g an SQL Worksheet / saved Script or Other table, then click back, the statement you entered will have magically disappeared.

I also think applying the filter on leaving the tab isn't really desired behaviour; the user should apply explicitly hitting ENTER.
Right now, you could start entering a filter, reconsider half way, change tabs, and you'd get an error about the wrong filter syntax.
Additionally, this (and any other) bad filter is saved to the new (and loved) filter history. It would make sense only logging working filters, right?
Thanks,

EA1: BUG: View Table Data: Filter gets lost when switching tabs

Hi,
open a table, choose the data tab and enter a filter condition. The data is filtered.
Bug is
a) choose e.g. constraint tab for the same table and then again the data tab. Data remains filtered, but filter is not displayed
b) pin the table, open another table, navigate back to the previous table. Data remains filtered, but filter is not displayed.
Regards
Stephan

The issue was reported already and will probably be fixed in EA2...

30EA1 : Filters history doesn't exist on table data tab anymore?

With the previous release, when we choose a table, it was possible to have a history for the filter on data tab.
Is this option still exist in this release?

Can't do anything to table- data tab after cancelling initial query

When I select a table and go to "Data" tab, sqldeveloper executes initial query to fetch first 50 rows. While it does so, "refresh", "add" etc. icons, and "Sort..." button are blocked. The problem is, if I cancel that initial query, icons and buttons STAY grayed-out, so I can't refresh the table. Pressing enter on "filter:" field also doesn't work. The only way to restore functionality is close the tab and open it again.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open a large table
2) Filter it with some query
3) Sort results
4) Close the tab
5) Open the table again. "Sort" settings persist, so SQLDeveloper starts running a very long query
6) Press "Cancel Query" in the appearing box
Canceling the query somehow resets persisted Sort settings, so it works fine next time I open the table.

Can't reproduce it,Is there any setting
Umm, I'm not exactly sure what do you mean by that. I don't remember modifying anything in the preferences for persisted settings (like sorting order or hidden columns). In fact, I'm pretty sure there is no such settings in preferences.
As for reproducing the bug, may I ask you which step fails, exactly? Do sort settings reset when you open the table again? Or does the query executes instantly? Oracle sorts table too fast if it's under 1 000 000 rows, and it becomes visible on 8 000 000+ rows table.

Hi,
Many thanks for your Response.
Actually, I have only three columns in the *"Selected Columns"* Section of Answers and they are
Opportunity Id Effective Date Current
Effective Date is based on Dashboard Prompts with 2 Presentation Variables say Effective Start & End Date and that has been used in answers to have a Revenue Variation report for these 2 dates ONLY.
So, As per my Requirement,
1) I have created a Pivot table by having Opportunity ID in Rows Section, Effective Date in Columns Section and Current in Measures Section
2) Created a Calculated Item for Revenue Difference using the formula $2-$1
So, Everything worked fine so far.
and Next Requirement is to filter the rows from the Pivot results which i have mentioned in the post and they are
Pivot table View:_
Sales ID 20120207 20120220 Diff
1 0 0 0
2 100 0 -100
3 100 200 100
4 100 100 0
5 200 300 100
6 0 0 0
Requirement:_
1) Filter rows where measure for both Effective dates(20120207 & 20120220) is equal to 0
2) filter rows where measure for effective date 20120220 is equal to 0 & measure for effective date 20120207 is not equal to 0
3) filter rows where diff is equal to 0
expected Output:*
Sales ID 20120207 20120220 Diff
3 100 200 100
5 200 300 100
Please provide an workaround to implement in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0

Linux: Table Data view - Filter cannot be edited

When using SQL Developer 1.2.1.32.13 on Ubuntu (Gutsy), and entering a filter on the Data tab of a table, the filter cannot be edited anymore. The Delete and Backspace keys are non functional.
I have selected the Default accelerators, but that does not change the behavior.
Any way to resolve this issue?

Appears to be JDK related. Works with JDK 1.5, does not work with 1.6.

Enhancement request : Table - Data -- Filter with multiple lines

It would be nice when the Filter option in the tables Data tab could contain multiple lines, because :
In case of a complex where clause on a table (used in a query) it's hard to get an impression of the filter because everything is typed on one single line.
In case of multiple lines it's also more easy to disable a single clause temporary with a double dash (--) at the start of the line instead of searching in a complex filter where to put /* ...*/
Eric.

What I mean is the Filter option when displaying the data (Data tab) of a table. You have the possibility to enter a Sort and a Filter (to reduce the data that is displayed). That Filter option has no possibility to enter multiple lines. So there is no way to 'format' the filter which would be nice in case of complex or large 'where clauses'.
What would you prefer, this (multiple lines) ?
AND ( p_peildatum IS NULL
OR
TRUNC(p_peildatum) BETWEEN TRUNC(dnm.datum_ingang)
AND TRUNC(NVL(dnm.datum_einde,p_peildatum))
AND ( p_ondergrens IS NULL
OR
TRUNC(p_ondergrens) <= TRUNC(NVL(dnm.datum_einde,p_ondergrens))
or this, like it is now (everything on one single line) :
( p_peildatum IS NULL OR TRUNC(p_peildatum) BETWEEN TRUNC(dnm.datum_ingang) AND TRUNC(NVL(dnm.datum_einde,p_peildatum)) ) AND ( p_ondergrens IS NULL OR TRUNC(p_ondergrens) <= TRUNC(NVL(dnm.datum_einde,p_ondergrens)) )

How to apply a Filter on JSONModel for a Table data

I have a table and search text box. Now when users types in something I want to filter the Table Data which is JSONModel.
There are several columns in the JSONModel and the search string should check against each column.
If columns are Date then ignore if they are numeric convert to String and check against value.
How can I achieve this?

Hi Chandrashekhar,
Thanks for your reply it solves half of my problem.
Now if I want to have a OR condition for Filters applied on lastName and firstName column i.e. the search string should either exist in lastName or firstName return me all rows which satisfies the search string filter then how do I do it?
I tried the following by adding one more filter but I guess it creates AND condition between these filters
oTable.getBinding("rows").filter([new sap.ui.model.Filter("lastName", "StartsWith", sValue),
new sap.ui.model.Filter("firstName",StartsWith",sValue)]);
I also observed that in the current code the filter is applied on lastName column but when you search the next column shows filter icon is this a bug?
Please refer screenshot

Table Data Preview tab: Missing Filter Textbox + Drill Down Data Discovery

1 - With Oracle based tables, when I click them and the table preview loads with all the tabs, on the Data tab there is a Preview entry box. I do not see the same with SQL Server or MySQL based connections. Is there a way to enable it? Am I not looking hard enough or is this function only available for Oracle based tables?
2 - I'm having a hard time trying to search for an answer to this next question (too many false positives based on the terms I am using). In other tools I have used (namely DB Visualizer), when previewing data in the Table's Data tab, a user may 'drill down' through values by right-clicking the field and applying a filter from the pop-up (drop-down with the field names, usual SQL comparison operators and a text entry box). I see SQL Developer has something similar with a filter list, but it only seems to prompt values in the buffer (in order, no less) and only uses the = operator (no LIKE). Finally, I notice that this value is not even present in the Filter text box (if you wanted to edit it further, add more, etc). As with my prior question, am I missing some usability/functionality setting/config or does this feature simply not exist in the way the other tool employed it? This feature is what keeps the other tool installed on my machine.

Hi Jed,
1) Sorry, the tool just has fewer bells and whistles for non-Oracle database connections. You might try adding this as a feature request on SQL Developer Exchange.
2) The normal SQL operators such as LIKE, <, and so on, are supported for the individual column filters, but there are some quirks:

2.1 Cannot remove filter on table column on data tab of table browser

In table browser, click on the data tab. Click a column name, click a data value and then double click to filter by the data value. Data filters as expected. However, when you click on the filter icon which appears to the right of the column name, it presents you with a list which contains "Remove('<DATA VALUE>')". If you double click "Remove('<DATA VALUE>')", all rows are removed from the data tab.
Refreshing does not make the data appear. Clicking on the filter icon again, the text is changed to "Remove('Remove')". Double clicking that also has no effect on the data grid.
Work around is to right click on a column name and select "Remove All Filters".

Ahhh, so sorry.
This has been logged as similar issue

Copy and Paste does not work in filter statement of table data

I am using SQL Developer 3.0.04. I can not copy nor paste in the filter criteria when watching or editing table data. Is it a bug or do I have to change some settings?

Hi Sven,
I did a bit more research and now I hope we will be talking about the same thing. Bear with me and let me clarify. In terms of my prior comment about the process necessary to copy a value from a data cell into the clipboard, I was totally off-base. Once the focus is on a data cell, all one need do is Edit menu|Copy or ctrl-c. I have no idea why I had trouble with that yesterday.
Anyway, getting back to what's relevant with regard to your issue:
1) If something is in the clipboard, then both Edit menu|Paste and ctrl-v work for a data cell target.
2) If something is in the clipboard, then Edit menu|Paste fails for a data tab filter target.
3) If something is in the clipboard, then ctrl-v works for a data tab filter target.
So obviously conditions exist where pasting to the data tab filter can work. But here is a scenario where I found a problem similar to what you describe:
1) For the EMP table in SCOTT, display all employees in the data tab.
2) Apply a filter. For example, filter on JOB='SALESMAN'. Now 4 salesman, all in dept 30, are displayed.
3) Next you decide to view only employees in dept 30.
4) Copy the value 30 from the DEPTNO column. Carelessly put the focus on ENAME column in one of the data tab rows.
5) Next focus on data tab filter to blank out JOB='SALESMAN' predicate. Drop down to select DEPTNO. Append an = sign.
6) Finally Edit menu|Paste. Instead of seeing DEPTNO=30 in the filter, we see...
7) The filter contains nothing and is disabled (greyed out).
8) The ENAME column of the prior focus now contains the value 30 rather than the a salesman's name.
Your case may be different/more complex, but at least this simple case demonstrates in a repeatable fashion what I noticed but didn't describe very well yesterday. I have logged the following internal bug:
Bug 12753266 - EDIT MENU PASTE INTO DATA TAB FILTER DOES NOT WORK AND MAY DISABLE THE FILTER
Using the rollback button, blanking out any filter value and hitting enter displays all original employee rows.

Updating the columns in Data Tab - is a bit awkward

How do you restrict the number of table columns on the data tab?

I have a table with 50+ columns. Is it possible to restrict the list of columns on the data tab to say 5 columns as I'm only interested in seeing/updateing the data for these 5 columns. You can restrict the number of rows using the filter but not the columns. Is there some other way seeing an updateable "view" of the table? I suppose you could create a number of views and edit through them but there are too many combinations.
regards
Paul P

I don't know of any way of reducing the number of columns that display in the Table data grid.
However, you can rearrange the columns to have the five columns you want to edit as the first five. With fifty columns, even this would be some effort to find and drag them to the left of the view, but it should give you the five columns you want to update on the window at the same time.

Can't see data in data tab when there is a "." in table name

Hi,
I have a problem with SQL Developer 2.1 (this works with 1.5).
When there is a dot (".") in table name, we can't see data in data tab (we have no synonyms so it's not same bug).
If I try to export data on same table, in "WHERE" tab, I can see sample !
Any idea ?
Thanks

How can I filter a table from Data Control without enter query

I have a table from a web service data control based on WSDL.
I want to filter the table without input query at filter text box. Without filter text box, each would filter the table with a hardcoded query internally.
For example, when user click A menu button then it filters the table where type = '1' and B menu button filters the table by type='2' and C menu button filters the table by type=' ' .
How can I filter the table without enter query?
Could anyone point me to a solution please.
Thanks.

Hi,
when you created the table, did you try selecting the "filter" option. Select the table and go to the Property Inspctor. In the tool bar of the Property Inspector there is an icon to change the configuration. Its adding filter filter fields for the user to search in.
Option 2: The data of the Web Service actually is held in the iterators. If you wanted to filter the WebService query, I would not use the WS DC but a JAX-WS proxy in a POJO to fetch the WS Data. Then have the Data Control created from the POJO. You could have a method exposed on the POJO that allows you to filter the internally held data
