]] -- Define our sorting function

gridlist = DGS:dgsCreateGridList(300,50,600,600,false)
DGS:dgsGridListSetSortFunction(gridlist,sortfnc) -- set and load the sorting function
DGS:dgsGridListSetSortColumn(gridlist,2) -- choose which column to be sorted by.

DGS:dgsGridListAddColumn(gridlist,"test1",0.3)
