when in multi sort mode, provide an option to render numbers in each sorted column that indicates the current sort precedence of the columns -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-8272 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8272 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: component-tables Affects Versions: 3.3.2.SR1 Reporter: Ian Springer Assignee: Anton Belevich Fix For: 4.0.0.BETA1 Attachments: Screenshot-RHQ - Linux 'jetengine' - Inventory Data - Mozilla Firefox.png For example, if a table is currently multi-sorted by three columns - Name, Description, and Price, there is no quick way to know for each of these three columns, whether it is the primary, secondary, or tertiary sort column. A tiny "1", "2", and "3" next to the up or down arrow icon would clear this up nicely. For the RHQ project, we currently have a custom sorting facet which supports this feature. The facet is applied to a column as follows: <rich:column> <f:facet name="header"> <onc:sortableColumnHeader sort="res.resourceType.name"> <h:outputText styleClass="headerText" value="Type"/> </onc:sortableColumnHeader> </f:facet> <h:outputText value="#{resourceComposite.resource.resourceType.name}"/> </rich:column> I've attached a screenshot that shows how the column headers are rendered with the little numbers. I am creating this issue, because we would prefer using a built-in RichFaces feature, rather than a custom facet.
