    Hi Zubair_Muhammad

    Yes, VisualUpdateOptions.type is all you can use here.

    There is no explicit event for sorting as a sort will trigger a re-query against the data model. As far as the visual is concerned, this is an update of all data, so will typically trigger an enum value of 2 (Data).

    Note that if you implement sorting using the custom option, and manage via the properties pane, that property change will also trigger a re-query, and therefore the same condition as above can be used to manage that situation also.
