I want to add functionality on every column of my table in which click on the column sorts that in some order (ascending/descending). But there is no click event on the column. An icon should appear on every column and by clicking the column it should open a dialog where sorting options will be given
<Table id="schTableId" selectionChange="onTableRowPress"
mode="SingleSelectMaster" growingScrollToLoad="true" growingThreshold="10"
growing="true">
<columns>
<Column >
<Text text="Sales Order No." class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column >
<Text text="Creation Date" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Requested Delivery Date" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Sold-To-Party" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Ship-To-Party" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true" width="8em">
<Label design="Bold" text="Product"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Quantity" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="TT No." class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Invoice No." class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Invoice Date" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Bill Amount" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" demandPopin="true">
<Text text="Status" class="ABC"/>
</Column>
</columns>
<items>
</items>
</Table>
You can make use of "header" aggregation in sap.m.Column control (it's a default one). You can put HBox there, including Text for showing the actual column header and a Button with a sorting icon, clicking on which changes the sorting order and modify the icon direction.
