columns.sortable Boolean|Object (default: true)

If set to true and sorting is enabled, the user can click the column header and sort the TreeList by the column field. If set to false, sorting will be disabled for this column. By default, all columns are sortable if sorting is enabled though the sortable option.

Example - disabling sorting

<div id="treelist"></div>
<script>
  $("#treelist").kendoTreeList({
    columns: [
      { field: "lastName" },
      { field: "position", sortable: false }
    ],
    sortable: true,
    dataSource: {
      data: [
        { id: 1, parentId: null, lastName: "Jackson", position: "CEO" },
        { id: 2, parentId: 1, lastName: "Weber", position: "VP, Engineering" },
        { id: 3, parentId: 1, lastName: "Carr", position: "VP, Finance" }
      ]
    }
  });
</script>
