Questions / Re: Maintain sort when searching

Hallo!

I was indeed sorting by clicking on column headers, and the tedium thereof is what prompted me to first ask a question on the board. Your solution (setting the global sort order) works beautifully and I  am already most pleased. Thanks for your reply.

Do these screenshots help to explain my issue? Can I help in some other way? Whatever needs to be done, I would happily code it myself.

Hallo!

Thanks for helping me out with this. So, I have my window sorted by artist, then by album, then by track #. All is well with the world. This is shown in screen1.png. Then, I decide that I want to restrict the playlist to only Portishead. So, I type "Portishead" in the search box in the lower right, and click enter. Now, the playlist restricts properly to only the Portishead songs, but the order is no longer what it was! This is shown in screen2.png.

Also, if I resort the restricted playlist in some way, when I click "x" next to the search box, to to back to the unrestricted playlist, the unrestricted playlist is also no longer sorted.

Hallo!

No worries about a slow reply -- it's a free forum for a free program, after all. =)

I'm using the exaile layout, so I don't see a "song list widget", just a playlist. It seems like it would be simple enough to change the sorting algorithms used to be stable---many of the fastest sort algorithms are stable. It's possible that I might be able to do this myself, but I've never looked at the gmusicbrowser source, so I'm not sure how easy it would be.

Questions / Maintain sort when searching

Hallo!

I have my playlist sorted by artist, then album, then track id. However, when I search within it, the results are not returned sorted in this way. Even if I sort again, then clear the search, the sorting is gone. Can this be fixed?

Cheers,

Micah
