IModelColumn.SortOrder Property

Specifies the sorting type for the current column.

Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Model

Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(ColumnSortOrder.None)]
ColumnSortOrder SortOrder { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(ColumnSortOrder.None)>
Property SortOrder As ColumnSortOrder

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
ColumnSortOrder	None	A ColumnSortOrder enumeration value specifying the sorting type for the current column.

Available values:

Name	Description
None	No sorting is applied to a column.
Ascending	Sorts the column in ascending order.
Descending	Sorts the columns in descending order.

Remarks

Note that by default, if the IModelColumn.SortIndex property value does not equal -1, the Ascending sorting is applied. So, to disable sorting, you must set SortOrder to None and SortIndex to -1.

Important

Sorting, specified by this property is directly applied to the data-aware control. To sort the underlying data source, use the IModelSorting node instead.
