Description
The column filter will have a few selection types:
- Combo box: generally meant to have an option for global search via "contains" or "does not contain" that will live-filter the viewable columns for selection
- Once columns are winnowd down via the filters they are then "selected" with a check box
- A selection box to change the type of view filter. We may support more in the future, but will start with: Contains, Does not Contain
- Selection box to limit the columns to specific types such as integer, numeric, string, date/time, etc
- Select All and Deselect all - this will affect the full list of selections as limited by the any text in the Combo Box, otherwise global
