Re: [flexcoders] DataGridColumn sortDescending property doesn't change after first two clicks on header

Thanks! Though everything works even when I postpone calculation to
commitProperties(). :)

  I assume you're cancelling the default sort, which is why the column's
sortDescending is never updated.

You'll have to get the actual sort order from the collection itself.

var descending:Boolean = false;
var s:Sort = collection.sort;
var fields:Array = s.fields;
for (var i = 0; i  fields.length; i++)
if (fields[i].name == dataField)
descending = fields[i].descending

// now you have the value

 Hi All!

 I have defined my own handler for the headerRelease event in order to
 perform custom server-side sorting, since my DataGrid is pagable. In
order
 to do that I get the field from event.dataField and and order from
 DataGridColumn(DataGrid(event.target).columns[event.columnIndex
]).sortDescending,
 though sortDescending is false after first and second clicks. Why?
