I'm trying to add a sorting feature on each column of a table. I have inspected the example provided by SAPUI5 explored here: https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/explored.html#/sample/sap.ui.table.sample.Sorting/preview
Specifically I added a sortProperty attribute to the column element in my XML-view (see Qty below), but I don't see any sorting functionality nor any sorting arrows like in the example provided. Could someone examine what I'm missing here?
<Table id="searchResultsTable"
selectionMode="MultiToggle"
visible="true"
items="{
path: '/ProductCollection',
sorter: {
path: 'AwdDate',
descending: true
}
}">
<columns>
<Column minScreenWidth="Tablet" width="7%" demandPopin="false">
<FormattedText htmlText="Awd Date" />
</Column>
