Ordering Lists¶
The list view of items allows for basic ordering by column.
- Click in the column header of a list. String columns are sorted alphabetically and numeric columns are sorted numerically.
- Click the column header name or up/down arrow to change the direction or the sort order of the column.
The ordering of a column is shown by the up/down arrow.
Note
- When sorting, instances with no value for the sort field will sort to the top or bottom of the list, depending on the alphabetical sort direction: ascending or descending.
- Capital letters will sort before lower case letters.
- With no filter applied, sort will work on any column in the list view.
- With a filter applied to a single column, sort will work on the filtered column only.
- With a filter applied to more than one column, the sort functionality will not work.
- Leading spaces on a field in the list view are dropped when rendering the list view, so this may affect the sort order.
- The sort order of the Located At column will be according to the displayed string value and not the hierarchy path.
