given the many recent regressions about not supported column types by the new Row Filter, I have to create yet another post as I noticed it also not supports WebElement column type.
I explicitly raised this as a bug since it clearly is a regression especially factoring in the many other shortcoming reported. Apologize for the clear language but by now it really starts to become frustrating and begs the question “what else …”.
in 5.3.2 and 5.4 we will also change the node so that all columns are at least filterable by Is missing and Is not missing.
I am not familiar with the data type “Web Element”. Is this the one that has the mouse pointer icon and is called “Collapsed Menu” in your screenshot?
What types of operations would you expect on that datatype apart from pattern matching? Is this type representing HTML fragments?
@qqilihq: does the Web Element data type implement StringValue? If so, it will be supported by the pattern match enhancement in 5.3.2/5.4.
