First of all, I want to thank you for one of the best tools available for displaying data. I have a license for the developer version and I have been using it for several years. A question…..
I have a column of text. Standard behavior is when I click on the column name, the grid is sorted by that column in ASC sequence. If I click the column name again, the grid of sorted by that column in DESC sequence. Is there a way to make the initial click on the column title DESC instead of ASC? My users want to do 1 “click” to get the column in DESC sequence. The DESC sequence is used 90% of the time when sorting on that particular column. So the first click would sort in DESC sequence, and then the standard alternating between ASC and DESC sequence would be executed.
Thanks
You can specify with column settings:
$col[“firstsortorder”] = “desc”;
This will sort descending when you click first.
