sort by question
Hi,
I'm trying to first sort by field a asc then by field b desc. with a command like: "sort by: a asc sort by: b desc"
what seems to happen tho is it sorts both asc - the first sort order mentioned. If for example I switch it to "sort by: a desc sort by: b asc" both are sorted desc.
Am I just specifying the command wrong or is this a bug?
Thanks,
Jerry

Hi jerry,
what types of fields you sort? Can you reproduce it on youtrack.jetbrains.net?
one was a date field and the other either numeric or text. Should it matter? I will try to to repro on youtrack.jetbrains.net and include the search command here.
it did NOT repro on the jetbrains youtrack. this sort for example worked correctly:
sort by:Assignee asc sort by:{issue id} desc
Let me get more details for our issue...
Ok, this might be related to another question / issue I have. One of our PMs created the project that this sort is for and he created a bunch of the fields as type "state[1]". The sort we're trying to do is this:
sort by: {Due date} asc sort by: {Campaign Size} desc
Due Date is a date field but Campaign Size is a state[1] type field.
So could that be the issue?
What happens is no matter what I specify after {Campaign Size}, (asc or desc) it always sorts by asc (or whatever I've specified as the sort order for the first sort field).
So a second question is this:
Can I change the type of a field (a bunch of fields actually) from state to enum for a in use project? We have a bunch of records already w/ lots of comments, etc. I see that I can't do it thru the UI but maybe there's another way?
Thanks for your help,
Jerry
