Hi,

We are implementing NatTable in our RCP application. We are having two specific requirements:
1. Table should contain a column header after that one row with static data (Also which is freezed row) and below that a filter row. So when user scrolls down he is always able to see the column header, freeze row with sataic data and a filter row
2. Dynamic filtering. As the user types the filter expression into the text box, the data set would apply the filter after each keystroke. At the moment, the user needs to press the return key for the filter to be applied.

Can we add above two features in to a Nattable programatically?

Thanks for any help

1. If you need another row between the column header and the filter row you possibly need to create a custom column header composition. I think you could simply add a column group header on top of the column header where there is one group per column. There are also other possibilities using DimensionallyDependentLayers.

2. filtering on key press is currently not available. Technically there needs to be a key listener attached to the editor that fires a commit on every key stroke.
