B4J Question How to Filter TableView

xulihang · Jul 3, 2025

A user of mine is asking if it is possible to filter TableView.

By reading this guide: https://code.makery.ch/blog/javafx-8-tableview-sorting-filtering/, we can know that it is possible to filter TableView using FilteredList.

But the code is in Java, is there a convenient way to do this in B4J?

Perhaps you can use the b4xtable for this requirement

Try this simple example (does not honour sorted columns, you would need to decide how to deal with that)

I see. Store the entire items in a list and update the items in TableView based on the filter.

Yes, similar to the code you posted, but in reverse.

This version does honour sorted columns.
