Widget for Complex Filtering
With Filter you can define complex filtering rules for data. The widget looks similar to the Excel filter. It is a good alternative for a more complex Query Builder.
Webix Widgets on Touch devices
The behavior of drag-n-drop and scroll on touch devices has become more stable. Whenever possible, native touch scroll is used, which makes scrolling smooth, fast and helps to avoid several known bugs. Our team will continue working on the performance of Webix components on touch devices, so stay tuned.
