Description

Hi,

I am sorting the UI-Grid by using $scope.gridApi.saveState.restore($scope, converObjectToGrid); In UI its displaying as expected but when i export to PDF or CSV the sort order is not maintained in Exported file.

Export to PDF Function as bellow : var grid = $scope.gridApi.grid; var rowTypes = uiGridExporterConstants.ALL; var colTypes = uiGridExporterConstants.ALL; uiGridExporterService.pdfExport(grid, rowTypes, colTypes);

Please find the attached screenshot's before exporting and exported data imh grid
