Preventing sortable arrow display in certain columns

[jmaraisParticipant]

I want to use sortable (filterable, gouping) in the grid and therefore I switched on sortable, etc in the grid definition and set it to false in the column definition where I do not want to use sorting, etc.

This disable the use of sortable, etc in that column but the arrow and the dropdown menu still appears, although the functions are disabled.

Are there and way to prevent this showing up at all for some columns?

I tried to set sortable to false in the grid definition and to true for some columns, but no success!

It is counter productive where I have some small icons in the header, i.e. a checkbox to select all checkboxes when clicked.

Hi jmarais,

It is possible to disable the columns menu for the Grid, but not for a particular column.

Has there been any update to this function? I agree having the arrow show on columns that are small is really non professional.

I agree. Pleas consider making the arrow button NOT appear when the ‘sortability’ of a particular column has been set to false. With the current implementation you have provided half the solution. If I have made the column not sortable, then I don’t want to confuse my user by showing them a sort button in the header.

Thanks
