Appreciate the link. The issue I have is I need to have a custom sorter
based on
absolute value of the numeric data. So the Sort Property is not going to work.

I am trying to find how to do a custom sorter for the datagrid/datview

If all else fails you, create a new column that is not show in the grid that
contains the Absolute value.

Hi, I've got a problem. (why else should I post ;) ) I'ce created a datagrid and I want some rows always on top even when the user sorts a column. This I did by creating a new column and hide it. I gave the rows I wanted on top lower values then the rest (used default values). Then I turned off the AllowSorting property. When the user clicks on a columnheader I sort on the hidden column as first column and the second column the "clicked...

I set up sorting by various columns for a DataGrid. For one of the columns, I would like to implement my own sort algorithm, though. For example, the column contains data like: <a href="http://www.example.com">DEF</a> <a href="http://www.test.somedomain">ABC</a> If I sort by the default algorithm, I get 'DEF' before 'ABC' because the strings are compared up until they differ after 'www.'. What I would like to do is somehow sort on...

Hi, I found an article that explains how to do the custom sorting. Here is what it says: .... Perhaps you want some custom sorting method to take effect. To do that, DataGrid provides you with an action to overload called "SortCommand." In the properties events for your DataGrid, select the "SortCommand" action and implement it with the method name of your choice... But when I go to the datagrid properties events, there is no action...

I have a web service method that returns an array of custom objects marked serializeable with fully described public properties. When I bind the results to a DataGrid I can access the properties in the ItemDataBound event of the codebehind but I can't access them declaratively in the HTML code? Here is the code to call the method. net.mysite.www.WSInterface proxy; proxy = new net.mysite.www.WSInterface();

Hello, just two sad thoughts on GridView's custom paging support, the first one rather general and second one rather specific. First one: I really miss the DataGrid custom paging support with AllowCustomPaging and VirtualCount. The new declarative model with ObjectDataSource is much worse! - the amount of "words" you have to type is comparable (few methods in C# vs declarative binding with ObjectDataSource), however the static typing...

Hi, I want custom sorting on some of the columns in the datagrid. And i am able to do the same by overriding MouseDown event. However, i need to rebind my datatable to reflect the changes in grid. And with rebinding, sorting image (little triangle on the column header) goes away. I need to show sorting image as well custom sorting. Please help. Thanks

Does anyone have any example code showing how to sort a datagrid that is bound to a custom class array? My code calls a web method that returns an array of type LeadListDS. LeadListDS consists of string, DateTime, and boolean datatypes. This returned array is then bound to the datagrid and seems to work fine I just need to figure out this sorting issue. Thanks Ben

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
