Grids in IE: extra arrow on the right when a column is selected

[hin3x]

In a listgrid, when e.g. clicking on the header of a column "Date", the items are sorted based on the date. However, also an arrow/triangle appears on the right of the grid in IE8.0 and IE9.0. In e.g. FF16.0.1, this "side effect" doesn't occur.

I attached a screenshot to illustrate, we can also repro this in the showcase.

Build is SNAPSHOT_v8.3d_2012-10-11/Pro Deployment (built 2012-10-11)


thanks!

Screenshot was not attached. In IE9 Win7, no extra indicator appears in this Showcase sample.

Ah yes it was blocked by your size/dimension restrictions, it is now available (a little chopped up though).

Just to recap, when we look in the 3.0 showcase at the #grid_sort_sort sample there is indeed no arrow, when we do the same on a 3.1 showcase (build locally and deployed) the icon appears.
We would like the icon to be removed by default as it was before.

thanks

Just a quick note to say we do indeed see some oddities around whether or not the sorter button arrow appears and will be making some changes in the framework to get this working correctly.

We don't yet have an ETA on this (this will not make it into the 3.1 release but will be available in a patched build post release).
In the meantime you can suppress the title (arrow) on the corner sort button entirely by executing the following JSNI method in your application:

private native void suppressSorterTitle () /*-{
    $wnd.isc.ListGrid.changeDefaults("sorterDefaults", {getTitle:function () {return " "}});
}-*/;

Thanks for the tip & fix, we will be doing that.
