Description

Sometimes you need your datagrid to sort one direction only. (for instance accenting only.)

Now it is not possible without workarounds/hacks.

Possible solution:

add new option to GridColumn class : sortOneDirection:Boolean = false;

if set to true :

DataGrid.as - in createSortFields()

change:

if (sortField)
sortDescending = !sortField.descending;
