FME Server - Allow User to sort by any visible column or multiple columns

Related products:FME Flow
N

All the grids in FME servers are not sortable by users, sorting is the very basic function expected by all users from any software these days.


Please allow users to click on any column header to sort ascending/descending/removing sort for a given column.

The user should be able to hold the shift or control key to choose multiple columns to sort.

The sort function should work for all supported data types in the column, e.g. Number, text, date, user, etc.

​@LizAtSafe This idea does not seem to capture the same idea as the one I submitted, so merging it doesn’t seem to fit.  Being able to sort on a column is not the same as beign able to search (or filter) on a column.  If this idea is modified to include both capabilities, then that’s good (and better).  If that is the case, then please update this idea to include both capabilities so it’s clear.

However, if this idea is only going to include sorting, then please separate out my original idea for searching/filtering back to it’s own idea please, or let me know to re-submit it as it’s own.  Thanks for your consideration.
