WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?
Currently, filters can only be applied to properties that are visible as columns in a table. I recommend adding an option to filter by any property, even if it is not displayed as a column.
HOW COULD IT BE DONE?
Introduce a toggle or button in the filter creation dialog, such as “Show all properties”, which expands the list of available properties beyond those currently visible in the table. This way, users can apply filters directly without needing to add/remove columns.
REAL WORLD USE CASES
-
I want to filter out all records marked as “archived” without displaying the “archived” property as a column.
-
This avoids extra steps: currently I must add the column, set the filter, and then remove the column again.
-
The feature would streamline workflows and reduce unnecessary UI clutter.
RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVES
The current workaround is to temporarily add the property as a column, apply the filter, and then remove the column. This works but adds friction and slows down the process.
ADDITIONAL CONTEXT
This change would improve usability for users who manage large datasets with many properties, where showing all columns is impractical. It balances the clean interface with the flexibility of advanced filtering.
