sorting the columns in the hide and show of the contextmenu

[steve]

I have a kendo grid i am creating using angularjs.  At the moment the columns are hard coded, which is allowing me to chose what columns to show and hide with the context menu option "columns". The problem I have is there is no way that I can see to order them alphabetically without changing the order in the grid.  

 

My question, is this the expectation or is there a way to sort just the context menu columns column name?

Hi Steve,

I am afraid what you are trying to achieve is not supported - by design the columns in the ColumnMenu are rendered in the order in which they appear in the columns collection. However, you could try handling the columnMenuInit event and manually reorder the menu items.
