Column Reorder in JavaScript (ES5) Tree Grid control

06 Jun 2023 / 2 minutes to read

Reordering can be done by drag and drop of a particular column header from one index to another index within the treegrid. To enable reordering, set the allowReordering to true.

To use reordering, inject the Reorder module in the treegrid.

You can disable reordering a particular column by setting the columns.allowReordering to false.

Reorder multiple columns

Multiple columns can be reordered at a time by using the reorderColumns method.
