Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 58683
Sorting unintuitive
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:26:03 UTC
The sorting of Writer is unintuitive. I refer to the Sort command in Writer (Tools->Sort). I used the following list: [ a b c 가 나 다 1 2 10 ] with each item as a separate paragraph to test. Using 'alphanumeric' as the sorting criteria (ascending), I get: [ 1 10 2 a b c 가 나 다 ] -> does not sort numbers in natural order. Using 'numeric' as the sorting criteria (ascending), I get: [ 다 나 가 c b a 1 2 10 ] -> sorts numbers as expected but letters are reversed in order. Oddly enough, neither of the options is what I'd expect (i.e. [ 1 2 10 a b c 가 나 다 ]) . Why would 'numeric' (ascending) deliver a descending order for letters? -> Bug.
confirmed On Windows XP Pro SP2 with OOo 2.0.1 RC2
