I am experiencing the same bug in 0.52.4 when I sort by clicking on the headers in a query.

WHAT IS THE BUG
When I try to sort a Grid or List View by the Object Type, it doesn’t work.

HOW TO REPRODUCE IT

  1. Take a Query that shows all Objects.
  2. Add the Property “Object Type” to a View.
  3. Try to sort the View by the Object Type.
    → No matter if you try to sort ascending or descending, the View doesn’t become sorted.

THE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
I expect of course that the View becomes sorted by the Object Types.

Could you please confirm that you expected them to be sorted alphabetically?

If so, we are already looking into this here:

You can move the posts here into Hexara’s thread.
