InitialSortDirection Property (UltraGridOverride)

Returns or sets a value that determines in which direction the column will be sorted when the user clicks the column header and it was previously unsorted.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property InitialSortDirection As SortDirection

C#

public SortDirection InitialSortDirection {get; set;}

Remarks

This property allows you to determine the initial sorting direction of the column when the user clicks on the header to sort a previously-unsorted column. By default, clicking on the headers of an unsorted column will initially sort the column ascending. But there may be cases where sorting descending is more common and so setting the InitialSortDirection can save the user some uneccessary clicks.

This property only applies when HeaderClickAction is set to one of the 'Sort' options.
