We are observing an issue with sorting behavior after upgrading our application to GWT 13.1, specifically related to “Sort All Ascending/Descending” option. Sort All Ascending/Descending option, the displayed order does not consistently adhere to the selected sort across paginated results.
Observed Behavior-
At this point, based on our investigation, we are unable to address this through application-level code changes and would appreciate your guidance.
Thank you for your support.
Observed Behavior-
- After analysis, we found that the GWT framework reapplies sorting each time a new page is loaded.
- If a single page contains loads with different Operational Status values, the order of those loads may appear to change within that page.
- The data set itself is correct — all expected loads are displayed.
- However, the sequence of records is locally re-adjusted per page, leading to an inconsistent ordering experience.
- Whether this is a known behavior or limitation with GWT 13.1 sorting + pagination.
- If there is a recommended configuration or approach within Isomorphic/SmartGWT to enforce global sorting consistency across pages.
- If any framework-level fix or workaround is available.
