Check if a sort event was triggered
Hi,
I want to check if a sort event was triggered. i.e. one of these options (in the image below) was selected by user.
Can you point me to right direction?
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.

Daniel
