+## v0.28.2 (2026-02-25)
+
+### Fix
+
+- only show string filter input if data type matches
+- move `coerce_value()` method to base `GridFilter` class
+- preserve original data type when un-setting filter choices
+- raise better error if field widget serialization fails
+- tweak how grid filter params are built, for better link share
+- allow passing filter factory to `Grid.set_filter()`
+- track column-only labels separately for grid
+- make view responsible for App Info field/values
