RadGrid Column order index

[Sophie]

Hello, I'm having issues with the order index of my grid's columns.
I am saving the grid settings in a session variable, with the class provided here. I added a debug to see what is happening.
During the save, after i moved some column, i get this output:

Protected Overridable Sub SaveColumnSettings()
  Settings.ColumnSettings.Clear()
  Dim i = 0
  For Each column As GridColumn In Grid.MasterTableView.Columns
    Debug.Print("column no " + i.ToString() + " with OrderIndex " + column.OrderIndex.ToString())
     i += 1
    Settings.ColumnSettings.Add(GetColumnSettings(column))
  Next
.....

Output:

column no 0 with OrderIndex 2
column no 1 with OrderIndex 3
column no 2 with OrderIndex 4
column no 3 with OrderIndex 5
column no 4 with OrderIndex 6
column no 5 with OrderIndex 7.....

My grid have those settings:

<ClientSettings EnableRowHoverStyle="true"
  AllowColumnsReorder="true"
  ReorderColumnsOnClient="true"
  AllowDragToGroup="false"
  ColumnsReorderMethod="Reorder"
  AllowColumnHide="true"
  Selecting-AllowRowSelect="false">

 and my masterTableView has those settings:

<MasterTableView AllowMultiColumnSorting="false" AllowNaturalSort="true" AllowCustomSorting="true" AllowCustomPaging="true" .... >.....

Is it normal to get OrderIndex always in the same order? Does that explain why i load my grid settings i always get default order?
I save column slection too, that works really well, saved in session and saved in database. But OrderIndex... always in this order.

Anything im missing?


EDIT: i missed something... wether you hide or show a column, the order Index is always in order.
Then, any idea on how am i going to save the indexOrder of the column in my database?

Hello Sophie,

I just tested this functionality on my end but I failed to reproduce the problem. When I moved one of the columns I got the following output:

column no 0 with OrderIndex 3
column no 1 with OrderIndex 4
column no 2 with OrderIndex 5
column no 3 with OrderIndex 6
column no 4 with OrderIndex 2

Could you please try to isolate the problem in a runnable sample so that I can debug it locally?

Kind regards,

Hello Daniel,
my team and i are currently doing a code review to try to find the problem. If we don't find it, ill create a sample to illustrate my problem, otherwise ill post the solution we find. Thanks.

Edit: A did a sample demo and everything works as expected. Might be a postback issue with Ajax in our project. We're still investigating the issue.
