You can test this out on your own example:
https://datatables.net/extensions/searchpanes/examples/initialisation/viewTotal.html
If I search for an option in the search pane and select that option, it resets the search of the search pane.
For example if I search the "Position" pane and I put in "Support" and select an option, the search is now reset.
This does not happen if viewTotal is set to false.

Yep, that's pretty convincing, thanks for letting us know. I've raised it internally (DD-2614 for my reference) and we'll report back here when there's an update.
Cheers,

Any update on this?
Bump any update?
We're about to make a big release for DataTables 2 - so I tried it again on that release branch but unfortunately the behaviour is still the same. I've updated the ticket to ask if it can be expedited.
Thanks
Hi,
I've just been looking at this - it is caused by this. Honestly, I've no idea what that is doing there. It has been in since SearchPanes started supporting server-side processing. Unfortunately, if I just comment it out, it makes the clear button for the pane go haywire.
I'm planning a complete rewrite of SearchPanes in the near future, and this is one of the things I'll be looking at. If it was a simple tweak, I'd commit it just now, but I'm fairly sure it has knock on effects (I suspect that searches will be wrong when filtering with server-side data).
Sorry I don't have a better answer yet.

Understand! Thanks for looking into it.
