Enchancement Request: IR arrow button in Search Filter uses applied Filters

Question

Hello,
I'd like to request an Enhancement.
I'd like the IR arrow button in IR Search Filter, when performs the DISTINCT to provide choices in list for the user to select, that would take into consideration any other Filters that have already been applied to the IR Report in.
Currently it seems that it ignores any of these already applied filters and provides the DISTINCT list of the default report settings row set.

TIA

Ah ha! I figured out a solution. It took one of those "ah ha" moments to do it.
Peter.... thanx for the suggestion, but I am using the built-in Interactive Report settings to hide the Actions button and other things. I am also attempting to hide the section on the page which displays the current filtering, control breaks, etc. that are applied to the report. This is because the page is a public page and needs to be as simple as possible and I do not want the end users to have the ability to turn pre-built filtering and control breaks on and off. The problem is that the user-entered filtering is displayed in the same place as the pre-built filtering and I want to display the former, but not the latter.
I created a display-only item on the page containing the text that should show when the user has entered some search criteria in the search box. I then created a dynamic action which is triggered by the refresh of the interactive report and runs some javascript which first checks if there is "custom search criteria" applied and then hides or shows the display item accordingly. My javascript code is below for those interested.
if ( $('#apexir_CONTROL_PANEL_COMPLETE .fielddata:contains("Row text contains")').text() )
{ $x_Show('P1510_FILTER_ENABLED') } else { $x_Hide ('P1510_FILTER_ENABLED') }Shane.
