ASPxGridView default unbound column filter from dropdown

So I am using ASPxGridView for displaying data. I have an unbound column with text in there. Normally, you can filter the column:

-by selecting a value from dropdown

-by typing some text in filter input

The behaviour I'm trying to achieve is: When you select a special value from the dropdown, I want to filter the column with BeginsWith filter. I tried using

<Settings AutoFilterCondition="BeginsWith" />

but it only seems to work with input filtering: when I type text into filter input, column is filtered with specified filter, but when I chose value from dropdown, EqualsTo filter is used instead. How can I achieve my goal behaviour?

So thankfully I've found a solution. What I did:

-get the FilterValue of interest

-and then

filtervalue.Query = "StartsWith([Column], 'value')"
