There is a default menu in GXT for column config which holds sorting options etc:
I'm digging the interwebz on how to override these labels. Not the menu stucture or the behavior, just the labels (there is a submenu called Filters -> Yes, No, where I have to replace Yes, No with Up, Down). I found this post: http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?90713-Grid-Column-Header-Menu but this is basically overriding and custom implementing the whole menu, which is overkill. Thanks in advance!
Update: I'm prividing the accepted answer here:
BooleanFilter<?> statusFilter = new BooleanFilter<?>(...);
statusFilter.setMessages(new BooleanFilter.BooleanFilterMessages() {
@Override
public String noText() {
return "Down";
}
@Override
public String yesText() {
return "Up";
}
});
filters.addFilter(statusFilter);
The "Yes" and "No" text in the BooleanFilter
comes from BooleanFilterMessages
, which by default reads from XMessages.booleanFilter_noText
and XMessages.booleanFilter_yesText
. You can pass a BooleanFilterMessages
instance to BooleanFilter.setMessages
with your custom text.
Or, if you want to override it everywhere, you can place a XMessages.properties file in the correct path, com/sencha/gxt/messages/client/, and change the keys listed above.
