Sorting by dates is not working properly

nbelyh opened this issue · comments

User issue:

  • you have a "date" property (a birthday, for example).
  • the dates are in Spanish.
  • the org chart was created using a wizard, so all dates are strings (the wizard always uses strings).

The problem is, if you sort by dates, the sorter just sorts them alphabetically. That is not correct.

Example:

  • Octubre 6, 2001
  • Marzo 30, 1993
  • Julio 07, 1956
  • Enero 29, 1996

Are sorted as:

  • Enero 29, 1996
  • Julio 07, 1956
  • Marzo 30, 1993
  • Octubre 6, 2001

Which is obviously incorrect. The correct order should be:

  • Julio 07, 1956
  • Marzo 30, 1993
  • Enero 29, 1996
  • Octubre 6, 2001

Fixed in 3.10. Now you have a specific dialog that allows you to explicitly specify property type;
