Sorting Columns

Most grids support both single and multi-column sorting.

Single-column sorting

  • Click a column header to sort by that column, OR
  • Right-click the header and choose a sort option from the context menu.
    • Note: Right-clicking a different column to sort without clearing the current sort will activate multi-column sorting.
      To avoid this, clear the active sort first—either by clicking any column header or by choosing Clear Sorting from the right-click menu.
  • An arrow (↑ or ↓) shows the sort direction.


Multi-column sorting

  • Hold Shift and click other column headers to add more sorting levels, OR 
  • Right-click another column and choose a sort option—this adds it to the current sort.
  • An arrow (↑ or ↓) shows the sort direction. The sorting priority (1, 2, 3...) is also displayed.
