Disable sorting in views/related lists

Posted by Rollbase User on 15-Sep-2010 00:18

We have customers who prefer not to sort columns in a list view. We did this by creating a custom table instead of using the related list component. However, when we create new records through quick create, the custom table is not refreshed. Is there a way to disable sorting in views/related lists so we do not have to create a custom table? thanks!

by the way, i added a code to refresh the parent window in "onunload" of quick create page but it does not run after unloading.

I can disable sorting on View level (like "Hide Actions" option).

As for onunload, I've added the following script

alert("Unloading");

and it pops up a message every time I navigate from that page. So I thing it works as expected.

Hi Pavel,

Could you please show me how to disable column sorting? Even if I removed all sorting options, the view can still be sorted via the column heading.

As for onunload issue, this is what I did:
1. Go to Object definition
2. Go to Quick Create page
3. Click Properties. Type "alert("unloading");" in onunload textbox. click save
4. Go to the object's tab. Click Quick Create to create a record.
5. No alert was shown after record creation.

Onunload works for other pages (new, edit, view) but not for quick create.

Well, "Quick Create" is not a real page, its pop-pu. Perhaps we should hide event handlers for this page.

Disabling Sorting is already implemented and will be deployed before next Monday. This option will be available from View Edit page.

Thanks. The deployment of this feature will be in both .COM and .PH?
