WOSortOrder



Component Description

A WOSortOrder component enables the user to sort the objects displayed by a WODisplayGroup. It displays an icon representing the current sorting order ([image: Art/WOExtWOSOUnordered.gif] unsorted, [image: Art/WOExtWOSOAscending.gif] ascending, or [image: Art/WOExtWOSODescending.gif] descending.) When the user clicks the icon, the component modifies the display group's sort orderings and redisplays the display group's objects.
