Hello Helical Insight,

I am using a tabular view and the report I have data already sorted as per my needs. However, I see the sorting arrows on the table which sometimes comes on top of column header. I do not need it. Can something be done to remove it.

Thanks,
Netta.

Hello Netta,

The arrows you see is the inbuilt property of the table visualization and we can disable it by changing the chart options by forcing those parameters to be turned off via JavaScript.
Use the following JavaScript code snippet in the JS Editor of the report to make that happen.

hi_container.set("preExecution",function(c){
		var viz_Options = c.get("viz_Options");
			viz_Options["navigation"] = 0;
			viz_Options["sorting"] = false;
			viz_Options["multiSort"] = false;
			c.set("viz_Options",viz_Options);}
);

Please note that disabling the arrows, will also disable the sorting feature for anyone who is viewing this report.

There are other options also present here in the JS code which you can see
Navigation : it can remove the navigation buttons at the bottom of the table (page 1 2 etc) as well as options at top right (like number of records, refresh, columns to be shown).
Sortin: it can be used to remove the sorting option which appears when we hover over the table
Multisort: It can allow to enable disable disable multiple sorting on multiple columns.

Without code
