[fixed] Unable to sort on ID in filter

Post by Jon »

To keep my entries in order, I frequently sort according to ID. I have this column displayed and this is my primary and only sort criteria. While in Tree, this works fine as the IDs are displayed correctly in numerical order. But I need to do this for filtered items as well. Under Filter,this does not work. The numerical order appears like this:
78
79
8
80
81
82
83
84
85
86
87
88
89
9
90
91

This is with My Info Professional 6.35.4246 under Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

Can this please be fixed?

Thank you.

It seems that in the filter they are sorted alphabetically right now. This will be fixed in the next build.

Thank you. I just updated my install to the latest build hoping this was fixed already. It is not, so I will wait.

However, I see something else that I think is a regression from the last build. If I am remembering correctly, single clicking on the column header used to sort the column (one click ascending, a second click descending). This works as expected in the Filter but it does not work at all in the Tree. I have to right click and make the appropriate choice to do this in Tree.

This was always so by design: context menu in the tree and single click in the filter. The reason is to avoid accidental clicking, which then is not undoable (in the tree).

My mistake. I rolled back to an earlier version and see this is the behavior as you describe. Thank you for the explanation.
