22 Nov 20234 minutes to read

The column menu has options to integrate features like sorting, filtering, and autofit. It will show a menu with the integrated feature when users click the Multiple icon of the column. To enable the column menu, you should set the ShowColumnMenu property to true.

The default items are displayed in the following table:

Item	Description
`SortAscending`	Sort the current column in ascending order.
`SortDescending`	Sort the current column in descending order.
`AutoFit`	Auto fit the current column.
`AutoFitAll`	Auto fit all columns.
`ColumnChooser`	Choose the column visibility.
`Filter`	Shows the filter menu based on column type.
