Sorting GridListControl

[Martin Cyr]

Is there any built-in mechanism to allow sorting of a DataSourced GridListControl when the user clicks on a column header? Or should I use another type of grid? I''d like to obtain the same behaviour than Windows Explorer in list mode, first click to sort a column, then next clicks to toggle ascending/descending.

I''ll be trying this one...

You do not need tools for that sample. You can just remove the reference. The ComboBoxBase is in Shared.

You also do not need to used teh ComboBoxBase. You can just use teh GridListControl directly on the form instead of as a dropdown.

I can''t get it to work from the form directly. I fixed things so it shows on the form, but it seems the dropdown event from the combo is of some importance. I now have the arrow in the column, but it won''t repond to a click on the header.

To be precise, it''s this line in utils.cs i''m having trouble with :
cb.DropDownCloseOnClick += new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.MouseClickCancelEventHandler(sortgridlist.utils.DropDownCloseOnClick);

I don''t understand what event/handlers/object I should replace the combo with. I don''t even understand why it''s the combo who has his event registered.

I did not have a problem with that line running the sample using the 2.1.0.9 version that it was originally done with.

Did you try commenting it out?
