You can declare the livegrid column order in the RHTMLO::Form subclass,
using the 'field_methods' and 'default_sort_by' params. There's not very
good documentation on this; patches appreciated.
Here's what my class looks like:
package MyApp::RDBO::Foo::Form;
use strict;
sub init_metadata {
my $self = shift;
return $self->metadata_class->new(
form => $self,
controller_prefix => 'RDGC',
labels => {
foo => 'A Label by any other Name',
bar => 'The Path to Enlightenment',
color => 'The Color', # not shown in livegrid
},
default_sort_by => 'foo',
field_methods => [qw( foo bar )], # NOTE color not here
);
}
