DisplayText
  • Sorts the field’s data by the field’s display text (the strings displayed within the field values).
  • In OLAP mode, the data is sorted against the text generated on the server. Set the PivotGridOptionsOLAP.SortByCustomFieldValueDisplayText property to true to sort data by handling the PivotGridControl’s FieldValueDisplayText event.
  • The field is not sorted against the custom text generated on the client side (for instance, if you modify the text via the PivotGridControl.FieldValueDisplayText event).

Key

None

Data is not sorted - it is displayed in the order the data source specifies. This option is in effect only in OLAP mode.
