Background
So I am working on a project for a client that has filters for different weather events. There are categories and sub categories (example below)
- Winter
- Snow
- Freezing Rain
- Sleet
- Slush
Currently, the user can type a specific event ("Snow") to just get that event. (see below)
Or the category name ("Winter"), and get all of the sub categories to be displayed. (see below)
Question
What should be displayed to the user in the filter pane when the category is selected? Should it be the category or all the sub categories?
Category displays
Subcategories display
My thought would be subcategories so if the user wants all but one, they can select the category and then filter down from there, but I'm not sure if that is the best way to go about it.
