    Our folks are very used to how the jqxGrid grid does sorting and filtering in that I hover over a column, a down icon appears on which I click and then I can select the sorts and specify the filtering.

    Is there a property I’m missing that needs to be enabled for the jqxTreeGrid to allow same?

    Hi genachka,

    jqxTreeGrid represents the data in a Tree like hierarchical structure and the only common between it and the Grid is the word Grid. It does not have the filtering behavior of the jqxGrid.

    That’s too bad that it’s missing such consistency. In fact, to be honest, it’s been frustrating that there’s often a lack of consistency across functionality and API from one control to the other. We’ve been using jqxGrid for a long time now and have other controls from you that we use. But we need the filtering and sorting behavior on a tree or for the jqxGrid to have similar hierarchy functionality. We’re getting a hard push from our management to look else where and it appears that Infragistics (https://www.igniteui.com/tree-grid/remote-features), Telerik (http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/treelist/index), and a couple others offer filtering and sorting functionality on their treegrids and it’s consistent with what’s offered in their grids. It’s great that you spend efforts on new controls, supporting new frameworks, but it seems that feature parity, consistency of features and APIs is just as important but seems neglected. Would you consider adding the sorting and filtering (if yes, can you provide timeline?)
