[fixed in EPIM 9.3] Sorting by Notes column doesn't work in Calendar

Post by Keldi »

EPIM Pro Portable 9.2 (but probably it's the same for earlier versions, hadn't tried it there)

After sorting didn't work on my database, I tried it on a new one.

I created 4 appointments, sorting by other columns work.

But when I try to sort by Notes (nor matter Ascending or Descending)

it always sorts the table the same as with Start Time + Ascending

Hello,

I was not able to reproduce the issue, sorting works on my 9.2 Pro version.
Can you make 2 screenshots- one with sorting Ascending and another sorting Descending on "Notes" field (all other things unchanged)?
Maxim,

Ascending - the screenshot with red arrows in the post above.
Descending looks the same, the only difference - the indicator of sorting:

I reinstalled the portable version. With all settings on default the sorting worked on autocreated-on-intallation database, but on a new database the issue remained. Here is the database:
epim9-sort-by-notes-column-test.zip
(241.74 KiB) Downloaded 146 times
(forgot to delete tasks there, only sorting in Calendar module isn't working for me)

Tested it some more. It might be something because of the same names. When I rename one of the appointments from 'test' to something else, the sorting starts working, But when all four of the appointments are named 'test', the sorting doesn't work.
