UniGrid, Filter and Paging Custom Webpart

Hi Roman,

can you tell me how to remove (parts) of the current state of a UniGrid? I have a UniGrid on a page that is populated in Page_Load() with .OrderBy("NodeLevel, NodeOrder,NodeName") to ensure backend sorting by default. If users click on a column header, the sorting changes to that column. But I'd like to give users the ability to switch back to "system" sorting somehow without closing the browser.

Best regards, Stefan

A simple solution would be to give them a link to click on that would redirect them back to the page they are currently on. You could use a macro in an editable text box <a href="{% CMSContext.CurrentDocument.NodeAliasPath |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}">Click here to reset</a>

Hi Stefan,

You have several options depending on what you need:

• The easiest way to just reset the ordering state (and no other states) programmatically would be probably to just call this:

grid.SortDirect = grid.OrderBy;

• The grid also has a Reset() method that can be used to reset the whole state including filter, you can call this method programmatically, too

• If you want to leverage the default Reset button in a grid filter, you can set the property FilterLimit of the grid, so that the filter displays immediately and the reset button is available. This button calls the Reset method I mentioned above

grid.FilterLimit = 1;

Let us know if you need some more details
