Render Filter options in Context Menu instead of Dropdown Menu

Getting help Questions
1

Is there a way that I can get the Filter plugin to be accessed from the context menu instead of the dropdown menu?

Looking at the filter plugin code I see that the Dropdown menu plugin is a dependency, which makes me think it may not be possible unless I rewrite it.

But I am hoping that there maybe some hook available that allows me to have it render in the context menu instead?

Hi @shakiem_saunders

There is a way to use the filters via the context menu, but by the API, not the UI.
You would need to create a custom context menu option that uses the Filters plugin methods. Here is a demo with a custom context menu option http://jsfiddle.net/handsoncode/1pfu1u62/
