Sorting with Fixed Rows

Hi

We have a similar issue to what is already described in a closed topic.

Sorting with Fixed Rows (Bug Fix)

In the current 1.9.1 release I have noticed that sorting can still affect fixed rows. I have an application that utilizes four fixed rows at the top that I do want sorted, as they are "fixed" and are also headers. Please change the following code block from this: sort: function() { if (typeof this.hot.sortOrder == 'undefined') { this.hot.sortIndex.length = 0; return; } var colMeta, sortFunction; this.hot.sortingEnabled = false; this.hot.sortIndex.length…

We’d like the column sorting plugin not to sort certain rows. In our use-case the rows we’d like to ignore are fixed.

Is it possible to do this with the current version of the plugin?
Is it planned to implement such functionality?

If not, what is the suggested way to customise the MultiComlumnSorting plugin? I’ve already tracked down some methods of ComlumnSorting plugin which I’d want to customize.

There’s no official API for that but I hope that these two demos might help

@aleksandra_budnik thanks for the response, but these two demos are using v4 and it appears that it is not doable using v6.

You are right. After we introduced multiColumnSorting we’ve changed the API and there is no easy way to make it possible to block rows from sorting. I will check some approaches but I do not see any API that can help.

Sorry but I did not find anything more.
