How do I suspend filtering a Radgridview binding source while a user is editing a record?

Hello,  James,

When filtering is applied and the user modifies a certain cell value from the filtered column, this automatically will show/hide the edited row according to the filter criterion. Hence, this will lead to showing/hiding the row at its correct place.

Please have in mind that adding a FilterDescriptor to RadGridView doesn't perform a one time filtering operation. While the FilterDescriptor is present in the grid, it is responsible to keep the rows filtered according to the filter condition. Even newly added rows will be shown/hidden considering the applied filter.

The possible solution for ordering the rows to any certain logic that is different than the default behavior described above is to use the custom filtering functionality that RadGridView offers. Thus, you can implement any rows filtering that fits your needs. A sample approach is demonstrated in the following help article: Custom Filtering.

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
