Hi David, 

The GridView didn't offer this functionality by default. However we have added a property CanUserSortGroups to the GridView. The property will be available in our next internal build next week. You can try it and share your thought about it. 

We are sorry for any inconvenience caused!

Nik,

How can I access this "CanUserSortGroups" property? I looked through the release notes of the 2012 Q2 and did not see anything related to this. Has this been implemented already?

Hello David,

The property is available in our latest internal build libraries. The official release that will include the property will be the Q2 SP2 release in the middle of September. 

Hope this helps!

Is this going to be available for the ASP.NET Ajax Controls?

Hi,

Is this feature available in 2017.1.118 build ? how to use it on ASP.NET MVC

Hello Buddhima,

I am afraid that there is no property to control (allow/prevent) the group sort functionality (click on the group name in the group header of the grid) in the Kendo UI Grid for ASP.NET MVC. As soon as the groupable option is enabled user will be able to sort (asc/desc order) the groups itself. 

In order your questions to be handled in more accurate way we suggest opening separate threads for the exact product.
