Report Control Header

   We are starting to compare our production app which is running 12.2 verse the newer/newest versions 13.1 and 13.2. 

We have a question about headers being resized during a sort. In 12.2 our columns that were just wide enough to show the full text would reduce down to showing the abbreviation and the sort indicator.  example Room# would become Roo... ^

After we upgraded, the sort indicator does not show up because the column is not wide enough and that the column header does not abbreviate to Roo... ^
Is there a new property or do we have to have a custom sort chevron to reduce down

our report control properties are this:

With Report
        .EnableMarkup = True
        .FreezeColumnsAbs = True
        .FullColumnScrolling = False
        .Icons = ImageList.Icons
        .MovePivot = True
        .PaintManager.CaptionFont.Size = 9
        .PaintManager.ColumnStyle = xtpColumnOffice2007
        .PaintManager.ColumnWidthWYSIWYG = True
        .PaintManager.DrawGridForEmptySpace = False
        .PaintManager.DrawSortTriangleAlways = True
        .PaintManager.FixedInplaceButtonHeight = True
        .PaintManager.FixedRowHeight = False
        .PaintManager.FreezeColsDividerColor = RGB(236, 233, 215)
        .PaintManager.FreezeColsDividerStyle = xtpReportFreezeColsDividerThin
        .PaintManager.GroupIndentColor = RGB(223, 234, 250)
        .PaintManager.HotTracking = True
        .PaintManager.PreviewTextFont.Size = 9
        .PaintManager.ShadeGroupHeadings = True
        .PaintManager.TextFont.Size = 9
        .PaintManager.ThemedInplaceButtons = True
        .ReactivateOnSetFocus = True
        .SelectionEnable = bAllowSelection
        .ShowFooterRows = True
        .ShowHeaderRows = True
        .ShowRowFocus = bAllowSelection
        .SkipGroupsFocus = False
        .ToolTipContext.Style = xtpToolTipRTF
    End With

	enum { [helpcontext(5514)] xtpReportDrawSortTriangleDefault = 0, [helpcontext(5514)] xtpReportDrawSortTriangleAlways = 1, [helpcontext(5514)] xtpReportDrawSortTriangleNever = 2 } XTPReportDrawSortTriangleStyle; so if you want save space for text - use .PaintManager.DrawSortTriangleStyle = xtpReportDrawSortTriangleNever and .PaintManager.DrawSortTriangleAlways = False

	Try to use PaintManager.DrawSortTriangleStyle = xtpReportDrawSortTriangleAlways I will look in algo to make it better. Btw - you use default setting PaintManager.DrawSortTriangleStyle = xtpReportDrawSortTriangleDefault It means - show sorting trianlge only if we have enough space
