Object List sorting

Hello!

I have a request to sort an object list on 2 properties from the object itself then to sort on a linked property or the possibility to if they user wanted.

Is there a way to do this?

It only seems like you can either sort on properties on the object or function back properties. Then when enabling user sorting, this overwrites the original sort and doesn’t include the function columns. It seems like a waste to make functions for the properties already on the object to then sort but just making sure this is my only way.

Thank you!

Hey,

Currently, mixed sorting isn’t supported. You can sort by object properties or function-backed properties, but not combine both in a single sort definition.

When user sorting is enabled, it replaces the default sort rather than extending it.

So if you need sorting across object and linked properties together, creating function-backed properties for all sort fields is currently the main workaround.
