Priority sorting...
posted

hello:

does infragistics have a built-in technique to do priority sorting on columns of a grid?
typically, inorder to implement this feature, i would create a dialog box and have the user
select columns in priority order and have them decide ascending or decending, i.e., sort column1
by asc|des, then sort column3 by asc|des, then sort column5 by asc|des... etc...
the infragistics groupBy feature comes close to supporting the above, but groupBY always
presents the data as a drill-down tree with the leaf displayed as a grid.
is there a way to display the result data without tree nodes and drilling down? i would like to do
the groupBy but have the results displayed as a grid only.

Is there another infragistics built-in feature to accomplish priority sorting and results displayed
as a grid only?


thanks in advance for your assistance...

    I believe you are talking about multi-column sorting. Set HeaderClickAction to SortMulti or ExtendedSortMulti. When the user holds down Shift while clicking the column headers this will perform a multi column sort. The priority is determined by the order their clicking.
