sorting in a straight table

Anonymous — Fri, 10 Apr 2015 08:46:19 GMT

Hi,

There is a default functionality in a straight table which allows to sort a particular column by clicking on its header.

Due to some reasons of design and usability standard headers are not displayed in my table. So, I'd like to create a separate button or a text object and assign an action to sort my table by a particular column.

How is that possible?

Thank you in advance,

Larisa

Hi Larisa,

you'll probably need a macro to do this, check out the following:

Thanks, Andy!

Could you please say if it is possible to hide the header of a straight table?

It is not possible to hide the Dimension label in a Straight or Pivot table.

You Can't actually hide it, but on the Properties > Dimensions tab > Enter a Space character, as the label.
