TileGrid sortByProperty() not sorting...

[slick07]

The data arrived handler workaround does the job. Thank you!

We plan to extend the DataBoundComponent API to provide the same setsort() method you find on ListGrid.

Until that time, you can sort a TileGrid by installing a data arrived handler that calls sortByProperty() after data is present. The reason it fails in your test code is because it's applying a one-time sort to the current data of the TileGrid, which at the time of your call is an empty array (rather than a ResultSet, which is returned from the fetch).

Isomorphic Any update on this? Is there any possibility to control the order of the tiles in a TileGrid?

Isomorphic It's not in the SmartGWT docs, only SmartClient. SmartGWT's DataBoundComponent does not have it.

I may be missing something but there is no setSort() method for TileGrid...

[Isomorphic]

Try setSort(). sortByProperty is for after draw(). We'll clarify in the docs.

Hi there,

I am trying to use the TileGrid.sortByProperty() method to display the tiles in a given order based on a field from the DataSource. However it is not doing anything... Attached is a test case where the tiles appear in the same order as are provided by the data source.
