Sorting

The Gantt control for JavaScript has built-in support for sorting one or more columns.

Sorting columns

Gantt allows the tasks to be sorted in ascending or descending order based on the selected column by enabling the e-allowsorting option in the Gantt control. The following code example shows how to enable sorting in the Gantt control.

  • javascript
    • <body ng-controller="GanttCtrl">
   <!--Add  Gantt control here-->    
   <div id="GanttContainer" ej-gantt
      //...
      e-allowsorting="true" 
      >
   </div>
</body>

    Multicolumn sorting

    Gantt allows you to sort multiple columns by clicking the desired column headers while holding the CTRL key. The following code example shows how to enable multicolumn sorting in the Gantt control:

  • javascript
    • <body ng-controller="GanttCtrl">
   <!--Add  Gantt control here-->    
   <div id="GanttContainer" ej-gantt
      //...
      e-allowsorting="true" 
      e-allowmultisorting="true" 
      >
   </div>
</body>
