Re: Individual column filtering in Odoo

 

Despite of all details, https://datatables.net/ seems a great NIH-tool.
In some cases I'd prefer disruptive moves over evolution.
I think it's worth taking a closer look at it, not thinking about how the
same functionality can be achieved with the concurrent solution, but just
admiring the beauty and responsiveness of this benchmark.

look for example at Scroller: https://datatables.net/extensions/scroller/
or colreaorder: https://datatables.net/extensions/colreorder/
or colvis: https://datatables.net/extensions/colvis/

and type in "acc 16" -> this doesn't work in odoo, the "benchmark-way".
