jQWidgets jqxTreeGrid sortable Property

Last Updated : 28 Oct, 2021

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxTreeGrid is used for representing data in a tree-like structure. This widget is useful for displaying multi-column of hierarchical data, data paging, sorting and filtering, data editing, column resizing, fixed columns, conditional formatting, aggregates, and rows selection. These widgets also read and display the data from any type of data source such as XML, JSON, Array, CSV, or TSV.

The sortable property is used for enabling or disabling the sorting features of the specified jqxTreeGrid.

Syntax:

For setting the sortable property.

$('Selector').jqxTreeGrid({sortable: true});

For getting the sortable property.

var sortable = $('Selector').jqxTreeGrid('sortable');
