Hello,

A question a bit related to : Tracker items view sorting tools are broken (for certain type of fields) <https://dev.tiki.org/item7656-Tracker-items-view-sorting-tools-are-broken-for-certain-type-of-fields>

On most of Tiki list/tables (if not all) when you have sorting tools you have first to click on the header to activate it.
It sort the items in ascendant order based on this column and you can see the ascendant arrow.

When the sorting is based on a text column that works ok, even if blank and " and 12345 are placed first and that is sometimes annoying (see: https://dev.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker.php?sort_mode=f_26_asc&trackerId=5 <https://dev.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker.php?sort_mode=f_26_asc&trackerId=5>)

However for dates (like last modification or creation) it display the oldest element first.
Now… May be that’s the "formal" way it should be but I always had to add an extra click to this the more recent first.

1/ Would it be wise/possible to improve so Alphanumerical are first, then exotic language then signs (like IOS)?

2/ Would it be possible/wise to change that order so the date is newer first ?

What people think ?

B
