Disabling orderBy in AngularJS while editing the list
angularjs, angularjs-orderby
Solution
I was using `orderBy` on a list that could be re-ordered using angular-sortable, and ran into a similar issue.
My solution was to perform the ordering manually, by calling the `orderBy` filter inside the controller when the page was initialised, and then calling it subsequently when necessary, for example in a callback function after re-ordering the list.
Problem
After applying `orderBy` in my list of input boxes if i edit any field it starts sorting immediately and i loose focus. I tried to dug in the angular code and found out they have applied something like $watch on the orderBy's attributes therefore whenever the value changes it sorts the list.Is there any way to disable orderBy while editing? I dont want to let the orderBy sort data while editing text. Any help will be appreciated Here is my plunker Note: I want to use orderBy & don't need any alternative like sorting the list from any controller itself. I just want the orderBy to sort the list once on page load and then remain quite.
