Custom visual text input (search)

Hi,   I have created a custom visual with a text input, which I wanted to use for a search through slicer. For the start I made just a search through table. It worked perfectly fine on development ...

Hi V-Viig,

 

Thanks for the Help. Yes, this is about Text Filter. The typed input basically works as % wildcard functionality. request you to please the develoepr know that, there are some instances people search for exact phrase. 

 

Smart filer by OKVIZ (https://okviz.com/smart-filter/) works exactly the same  as I want. But Search Text filter works much faster than Smart Filter. This fucntionality would be a great relief to look at quick insights about how a particular account annual sales. 

 

To be Clear below is the Problem:

Current Funcationality: It takes what ever the input is and tries to match column values

 

Expected: If ABC and AB are the values, We need sales for only AB. It should not include ABC too. Please let me know if any questions.
