Hi, Mark This could be done - but not easily. Essentially (if I understand correctly) you'd want to have a tool that uses a non-conventional control (the html table and row checkboxes) to allow the user to remove selected rows. One of the challenges is: how to create a new (smaller) dataset and still maintain the chain of reproducibility. You wouldn't want to simply make a new dataset appear (aka pasted text upload): that wouldn't trace back to the original table. I think one of the ways you might do this is: 1. Create a tool that takes a list of row indices and then removes the indicated rows from a selected dataset (this would allow keeping the edits in the chain of reproducibility) 2. Create a simple visualization that renders the original table and checkboxes and, when the user is done, calls the tool in (1) via the API with the selected row indices. Like I said - not easy, but that's my idea for it. Alternately: - There may already be a way to select the rows visually using one of the more sophisticated tool inputs (someone else will have to speak on that) - I believe someone else is working on a table editor - so you may be able to wait it out Carl On Thu, Jun 4, 2015 at 12:34 PM, Rose Mark USRE <mark.rose@syngenta.com> wrote:
Hello
Here is what I would like to do. Any suggestions are appreciated.
I have a history item that is an html page with an html table. This table has a checkbox on the end of each table row. I would like it if a user could check which rows he would like to keep and then be able to filter out all unchecked rows. I would like for this filtered table to be a persistent, new history item.
Can this be done and how?
Thanks
Mark
