[GH #6791] Date Filter Before includes the Entered date

Questions

Hi Team,

I am using the filter for date in my application.

Below is the steps I did

  1. Use filter and select Before for Date.
  2. Entered one of the date that is in the grid for before (eg: 05/12/2015)
  3. The filter result contains 05/12/2015 as well even if the filter is “before”.
  4. I am expecting the all data that is before 05/12/2015.

Is this the valid scenario.

Tried the same in https://handsontable.com/docs/7.4.2/demo-filtering.html.

Thanks,
Chandrakanth

Thank you for sharing this issue, @chandup83

you’re right, we should exclude the date as well. I’ve reported the issue on our Github board https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/issues/6791
and will update you once it is solved.

@aleksandra_budnik, Thanks for the quick response.

Can I know the approximate time it may take for us to get the solution. We are planning for the Production release early next week and this will definitely help us. :slight_smile:

Thanks in Advance,

We’re preparing beta2 of Handsontable 8.0.0, which solves around 130 issues of the ones reported on our Github board. We would like to publish beta2 next month but there is no deadline (if additional tests much be added the release time will expand).
Within that time we won’t be able to any any additional issues as there are no free developers.
The only workaround I see is to add a custom dropdown menu option but that may take you more than a week.
