Sorting numerical values

[Valerio Ricci]

Hi robby,
I started using the internal %id value with a dependent field in a customized
book collection and I noticed that the field value is sorted improperly.
Actually the ordering method seems to be something like "alphabetical" with 11
coming before 2.
Is this an issue regarding Tellico or linked with something internal to KDE?

Valerio

An issue with Tellico. I'll try to fix it.

Excuse me but my experience is that 11 will always come before 2 and the only way around it is to use two-digit numbering (01, 02, ... 10, 11, etc)

That's one way. But you should find that Tellico does numeric sorting for
"Number fields", they're not compared lexically.
