Override SystemDefinedShowFiltersButton dialog controls

Hey guys, 

I have a small filter icon on the left of the grid on a form with design pattern: Simple List. When I click it, it shows me 2 fields, but I want to override them and display 4-5 fields depending on my requirement.

I have seen that the control name is: SystemDefinedShowFiltersButton, and can be used as a reference to a controlId using #SystemDefinedShowFiltersButton macro. 

I have also read on: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/dev-itpro/user-interface/system-defined-buttons, about registerOverrideMethod() to call additional code to be executed when the system-defined button is clicked.

I am not sure how would I do it, since I can't find where the piece of code is located in existing customizations. I have tried different forms for help, but I guess those customizations aren't there. 

What I want to do? When the user clicks the SysDefinedFilterButton, The dialog shows fields according to my customization.

How do I do it? I don't know

    Ok. I found a solution. To add fields in SysDefinedFilterButton, add datasource field range (don't set any value) in Form's init method

    Example:

    public void init()
{
    super();

    // This will show Personnel Number named control in SysDefinedFilterPane
    HcmWorker_DS.query().dataSourceTable(tableNum(HcmWorker))
        .addRange(fieldNum(HcmWorker, PersonnelNumber));
}
