Description David-john Burrowes 2003-08-21 00:40:42 UTC 
(this may be an openide/explorer issue)

The original spec (
http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/hi/debugger3.4/tables/index.html
) is ambiguous about this, but I think the intent
was that all the sortable columns should appear in
the Sort By submenu of the List Options menu.   
At the moment, only the ones currently showing are
listed.
Comment 1 Maros Sandor 2003-08-26 14:42:46 UTC 
The document says "The contents of list is always sorted 
by the contents of one column. This column does not 
necessarily need to be visible.". Right now you cannot 
choose an invisible column to be the sort key. I think the 
problem lies somewhere within the Explorer code.
Comment 2 mslama 2003-09-10 12:56:27 UTC 
I think it is some component from explorer package. Debugger should
know more what component is used here.
