Labels lost on Active Filtering panel when variable is of type factor

[jenko1979]

What happened?

Hi, i notice that when any variable is selected for active filtering on the right hand side panel, if the variable is a factor we are losing the label. For character and numeric variables this behavior is not seen. We would still like to retain labels for factor variables here as well

label issue for factors in active filtering panel.docx

. some variables have been turned into factors on purpose so this helps with level assignments etc. I have attached a screenshot to show that the label on variable AESER is not there once its chosen as an active filtering variable, yet t is present in the filtering bit itself (and on the data frame). You can also see labels are maintained for the character variable and the numeric variable.

Hi! I don't have Word (or LibreOffice) to open the .docx locally and a word document with images don't display the images within the document on the issue. Could you provide the screenshot(s) directly on the issue?

I am not sure if this is teal.modules.clinical specific or more general, having code will make it easier to find what causes the bug and to fix it. Could you provide the R code to reproduce the issue?
Thanks!

Hi, i cant provide the exact R code here as its sensitive data. However, to re-produce it, just convert one of the CDISC data variables that you use for all your Teal run examples to a factor and then try to use that in your active filter and you will see the label is lost.

AESER label is present in the dropdown in the filtering panel

But is lost once it is chosen as and active filtering variable. This happens for all variables that are factor.

You can see variables AEACNS1 (character) and AETOXGRN (numeric) do not have this same problem
