You can customize the appearance of the sorting icons and multi sorting icons in the Syncfusion Angular Grid component using CSS.You can use the available Syncfusion icons based on your theme. Here’s how to do it:

Customizing the grid sorting icon

To customize the sorting icon that appears in the Grid header when sorting is applied, you can use the following CSS code:

.e-grid .e-icon-ascending::before {
    content: '\e7a3'; /* Icon code for ascending order */
}
.e-grid .e-icon-descending::before {
    content: '\e7b6'; /* Icon code for descending order */
}

In this example, the .e-icon-ascending::before class targets the sorting icon for ascending order, and the .e-icon-descending::before class targets the sorting icon for descending order.

Customizing the grid multi sorting icon

.e-grid .e-sortnumber {
    background-color: #deecf9;
    font-family: cursive;
}
