secondary-sort-descending doesn't work for run-date

Post by Skrell »

Win10x64 user
I've found that

Code: Select all

sort:run-count-descending secondary-sort:run-date 
works fine in a search but if I change it to

Code: Select all

sort:run-count-descending secondary-sort-descending:date-run
I get no results however if I change it to

Code: Select all

sort:run-count-descending secondary-sort:date-run-descending
the results seem to be sorted in ascending order with a large gap with no date and I can't fix it:

sort:run-count-descending secondary-sort:run-date
run-date is not a valid property.
Everything will just sort by run-count-descending.
Use date-run instead.
Sorting by run count will naturally do a secondary sort of run-date.

You can also separate sorts with ;

For example:
sort:run-count-descending;date-run-descending



sort:run-count-descending secondary-sort-descending:date-run
There is no
secondary-sort-descending:
search function.
Use
secondary-sort:date-run-descending
or
secondary-sort:date-run secondary-sort-descending:



the results seem to be sorted in ascending order with a large gap with no date and I can't fix it:
Files and folders are not mixed when using a secondary sort.
You will see files first, then folders at the end.
Support for mixing files and folders when using multiple sorts will be added in a future version.

Apologies for typo run-date in my original post; however, this addresses my confusion:
Files and folders are not mixed when using a secondary sort.
You will see files first, then folders at the end.
Support for mixing files and folders when using multiple sorts will be added in a future version.
Looking forward to this addition in future release! :)
