Topic: Datatable default sorting

Lumpenstein free asked 3 weeks ago


Just a quick question:

Is there a way to define a default sort for datatables (so that the sort arrow is visible from the start) ?

In the documentation the custom cell formatting example seems to have it on the Purchases column, but I cannot figure out how.

Setting default sorting direction for a column is not officially supported yet. We will update the mentioned example in the documentation as this may be misleading.

This feature is on our to-do list but don't know when it will be added yet.

Okay thanks, would be a nice feature so that the users can easily see by what column I sort the data by default.
