Selected row after sorting on initial databind

[Developer Developer]

When I add a sort expression the grid appears to behave as follows during the initial databind:

• First row is selected
• Grid data is sorted
• GridView scrolls it's content down to the row that was selected (which used to be the first row, but after sorting, is now at the bottom of the grid)

The desired behavior is to have the first row selected after sorting (instead of scrolling down to the previously selected row).  Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi,

You can handle the SortChanged event of RadGridView to support this behavior:
 

void radGridView1_SortChanged(object sender, GridViewCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.Rows.Count > 0 && this.radGridView1.CurrentRow != this.radGridView1.Rows[0])
    {
        this.radGridView1.CurrentRow = this.radGridView1.Rows[0];
    }
}
