Translation editor, Strings, Sort by ID

Post by mik »

In all my forms I can't reliably sort by String ID in Translations->String, although sorting by values in language columns works fine. All my string IDs look like: "prefix_id", for example IDS_1, IDS_201, PROP_a, PROP_b, etc.
It looks like it sorts only by prefix, ignoring everything that follows the first underscore. Can you please check if this is the case? I'm sorry to report it late, I noticed this quite long time ago (a year ?) after some version update - I forgot to report it back then.

Hello,

No, it sorts by whole ID including ther part after the underscore. Can you show us the sample of incorrect sorting on your side?

IDS_

Post by mik »

I checked the sorting patterns, and it looks to me that it is trying to sort names like IDS_nnnn based on the assumption that "nnnn" is always a number, failing to sort appropriately when the part after IDS_ is a text. Could this be the reason? I can send a sample form if needed.

Thanks.

Yes, this could be the reason for sorting problems. We will try to improve this.
