The filter row has a toggleFilterRowByFeatureChooser option where you can hide the row until the user selects it from the feature chooser menu. Is there a similar option for the summaries? If I do this: $("[data-widget=Grid]").igGridSummaries("toggleSummariesRows", false, null); it hides the summaries but the feature chooser option says "hide summaries" instead of "show summaries".
This is the call I'm using for the filter row.
$("[data-widget=Grid]").igGridFiltering("toggleFilterRowByFeatureChooser");
Hi Tammy Wohlrabe,
Thank you for posting in our forums!
After looking into the available methods and options for the Feature Chooser and doing some research, "toggling all features through the Feature Chooser" has been determined to be a new product idea. The "toggleSummariesRows" method is the only currently available way to hide the Summary Rows (aside from clicking the Feature Chooser) and there are no methods provided to alter the state of the Feature Chooser to manually toggle the text shown for the features.

Is there a way to mimic the user clicking on the feature chooser option to turn off the summaries?
While testing this, triggering the events on the button to mimic this would require the user to first open the Feature Chooser manually. The buttons do not exist in the DOM until the Feature Chooser options first display.
Also, when mimicking the button click, the Feature Chooser's display is toggled. Even if the user had previously opened the Feature Chooser to initialize the button, each time the button press is mimicked, the Feature Chooser's display would be toggled to show/hide. Given these outcomes, I would still recommend submitting a new product idea for this functionality.
If you have any further questions or concerns with this, please let me know.
I opened a ticket because I think there is also a bug with the filter. it is showing the opposite text in the feature chooser when you programmatically turn the filter row off.
Thanks for the update. Your support ticket had been assigned to me and I have been able to reproduce that issue and have submitted development issue 169578 to address this.
If you have any further questions with this issue, please let me know.
