sorting the group programmatically

[Gaetano]

Hello,

I need to sort the groups of a grid (and not the rows in the groups) programmatically.
I've seen that there's this functionality by clicking (after a grouping action) on the groupIndicator in the groupBar.

There's some function that i can call to use that functionality? Or some workaround?

Thanks

Fabio

Hello Fabio,

In order to achieve this you could change group direction. For example:

//get reference to the Grid widget
var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
//set asc direction to the group (for example grouped by FirstName)
grid.dataSource.group({field:"FirstName", dir: "asc" });
//set desc direction to the group (for example grouped by FirstName)
grid.dataSource.group({field:"FirstName", dir: "desc" });
