For large directories we would like to set the initial sort order to descending so we could see the newest files first. Other times we would like to have the initial sort be by filename descending. We want to set this declaratively on the control or in the .net code behind on initial page load.
The requested functionality can happen only on the client and only for the name and size sorting: $find("FileExplorer1").get_fileList().sort("name desc"); $find("FileExplorer1").get_fileList().sort("size asc"); If you need further assistance, please open a support ticket.
