Changing Search sort order for Simplified Chinese

We're generating a Simplified Chinese WebHelp system using Robohelp 10 and we need to change the sort order in the Search results so that it follows the pinyin order instead of "Y, Z, M, T" (Referring to 仪，准，美，通). Is there a way to do this?

I sort of found a workaround, but it may lead to other problems, so use it at your own risk.
It also requires a bit of work.
The idea is to use the sort order for Japanese by specifying the following in the IX reference page.
Symbols[\ ];数字[0];A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H;I;J;K;L;M;N;O;P;Q;R;S;T;U;V;W;X;Y;Z;あ;い;う;え;お;か;き;く;け;こ;さ;し;す;せ;そ ;た;ち;つ;て;と;な;に;ぬ;ね;の;は;ひ;ふ;へ;ほ;ま;み;む;め;も;や;ゆ;よ;ら;り;る;れ;ろ;わ;ん;[　]
<$symbols><$numerics><$alphabetics><$kana>
Then, you need to capitalize the first letter in the bracket used for sorting for every index entry.
Example:
Instead of
画面[hua4mian4]
specify
画面[Hua4mian4]
Now, I'm wondering if there is a way to do a search and replace on all index entries to capitalize the first letter...

  • Sort order for Simplified Chinese (pinyin)

    FrameMaker 10 (Windows)
    It seems that if I specify the sort order for Simplified Chinese (pinyin) on the reference page,
    index entries that start with "i" and "v" are not shown under their corresponding group titles.
    (I assume that this may be due to the fact that pinyin words never start with these letters.)
    If I have an entry that starts with an English word like "IP," it appears under the "J" group.
    I want the entry to appear under the "I" group. How can I do this?
    I have the IX reference page set up as follows:
    GroupTitlesIX paragraph
    Symbols[\];Numerics[0];A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H;I;J;K;L;M;N;O;P;Q;R;S;T;U;V;W;X;Y;Z;
    SortOrderIX paragraph
    <$symbols><$numerics><$alphabetics><$pinyin>
    I've also tried:
    SortOrderIX paragraph
    <$symbols><$numerics><$pinyin>
    Thanks in advance.

  • Control of sort order for asian language navigation

    I am a help writer who is working with both development and a localization vendor to create localized javahelp. I am the most knowledgeable about javahelp, which is not saying much. It has come to me to figure out how to establish the correct sort order for Simplified Chinese and Japanese language Index and Glossary navigators, Could someone explain to me how this is done outside of tools like RoboHelp (which has caused us major headaches yet seems to be the only way the vendor knows how to do JavaHelp). In layman's terms, please.
    thanks,

    Same issue here, and the bug syncs to my iPhone, so when I want to quickly text or e-mail someone, their phone numbers and e-mail addresses appear in the wrong order, Work or Home before iPhone or Mobile. How can we get this big fixed in the next Snow Leopard update?

  • How to change sort order for Notes in iOS?

    When using Notes in OS 10.10, I can change the sort order. However, I cannot see how to change the sort order for Notes in iOS8 on my iPhone. I sync using iCloud, but the iPhone does not pick up the sort order (alpha) that I have chosen on my MBP.
    Is it possible to change the sort order on phones?
    Thanks.

  • Default Sort Order for Library View

    It would be fantastic if there were a user defined preference for a default sort order in Library view. For example, some users may prefer to always view the images by File Name, or Rating, etc, without having to change the sort order for each individual folder they view via Lightroom.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your suggestion Allan, but it doesn't work.
    I'm specifically referring to the defaults that Aperture 3 adopts when you use the "File, Import, Folders as Projects with the projects and albums setting.
    What I'm finding is regardless of the setting in the Library preferences, the default sort order for the project is Date and Manual for the album.
    Yet if I create a project manually the default sort order is as per the Library prefs. Strange.

  • Changing items sort order at MI04

    Hi, experts.
    I have a requirement here, which is: I need to change the sort order for MI04´s items: instead of the standard sort order (which considers field ISEG-ZEILI as sorting condition), I´ll have to read another field from MARD and use it as sorting condition.
    I´m already inserting an Enhancement into form RELEVANTE_POSITION, where I read data from MARD, create an auxiliar internal table similar to LISEG + my sorting condition field, and re-sort LISEG according to my aux int. table.
    As I know that I shall have some extra work handling all the problems that those modifications may cause on futher execution of MI04, I would like to know if there is an alternative to this approach.
    So, I ask you: have you ever had to do something like that?
    Thanks,
    Mauricio Dotto

    There's a more detailed thread covering this at Mac Mail re-sort loses selected eMail
    tl;dr: Working as intended. My workaround is to use the arrow key to move to an adjacent message. This refocuses the window.

  • How change the sort order of searched items so last search item shows first. I DO NOT mean the order of search engines, but existing searches by down arrow key

    I want to be able to change the sort order of items I have already searched for in the search box. I want to be able to hit the down arrow key and see my previous searches in the order of last search showing first. At the moment I have no idea how it is sorting and it's very annoying to have to re-type a query I typed 5 minutes earlier but because I typed in another 10 since it is lost somewhere in the list. Can this be done, I have googled but did not find the topic anywhere. Just to clarify, I DO NOT MEAN the order of search engines (which is all that comes up in google), I mean the actual text typed in which has been saved in the drop down list.
    Thanks

    The "form fill" feature uses a "frecency" algorithm, frequency + recency, similar to the address bar autocomplete list.
    I found an extension that seems relevant, but the reviews are old so I'm not sure it's still working: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchbar-autocomplete-order/ Searchbar Autocomplete Order].
    But... is the autocomplete not working? I would expect that typing a couple characters of the earlier query would filter the list so you can easily select it? Or is the problem that the list doesn't remember enough searches for that?

  • Looking for a way to change sort order for albums

  • HT2470 Why does this not explain how to change the sort order?

    Why does this (i.e. support at Apple.com) not explain how to change the sort order? I can "arrange" by Date Modified for example but it won't let me switch to use most recent dates first. Also, what is Apple-speak for arrange versus sort anyway? It seems I used to be able to click on a column heading in finder and get a drop down arrow allowing me to change the sort sequence.

    Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
    I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

  • Sort Order for a VARCHAR2 Column

    Hello Everyone,
    This is probably quite simple, however I cannot see it. I am trying to sort on a varchar2 column that has numbers, text, dashes, tildes, carets and underscores which are mixed to compose a wire number. I have come up with an order by that changes the sort order from alpha to numeric satisfying one portion of the requirement.
    select wirenbr,fromitem "from",frompin,diagnbr,sht,toitem,topin,effect
    from acft_wires
    order by decode(to_char(nvl(length(translate(wirenbr,'A1234567890','A')),0)),'0',lpad(wirenbr,18),wirenbr);
    The select returns:
    1
    2
    3
    20
    21
    200
    201
    1000
    A
    ADT1
    AEN1
    AE1
    AE9
    AFA
    B
    1A
    2U7230A-ZZ
    2000A
    213-22
    22X100A20
    220-11
    The customer preferred sort looks like:
    1
    2
    3
    10
    10A
    11
    200
    201

    I will build a shrine in my hall of honor to this forum if someone can point me in the right direction on how to solve this problem.
    Thanks everyone for your help.

    ok, start with this
    order by
    translate(substr(wirenbr,1,1),'1234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-','0000000000ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ')
    , nvl(length(substr(wirenbr,1,instr(translate(wirenbr,'1234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-','1234567890XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'),'X')-1)),length(wirenbr))
    , to_number(translate(wirenbr,'1234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-','123456789000000000000000000000000000'))
    First, all that start with number go to the beginning and all that start with a letter go to the end.
    Next, sort by the length of the first numerical part, as per Al's first solution.
    Next, sort by the numerical part.
    I started getting what I think is the right sort by that point. However, I think that you'll also have to add
    stuff to sort by the alpha part, mine was
    , NVL(RTRIM(LTRIM(wirenbr,'0123456789'),'0123456789'),0)
    The biggest problem I see is all of the different number-letter-number
    number-letter-number-letter formats. How many levels of recursion you'll have to go through to get it perfectly sorted, could you have ZZ999ZZ99Z9Z9Z9Z99?
    Any ideas for breaking this value up?

  • Sort Order for Legend and X Axis

    Does anyone know of a way to keep a specific sort order for both the X Axis and the Legend. Both start with numbers and I can get one or the other to sort correcly on the chart but not both. Biggest problem is not all of the legend items are in the first X Axis item so the colors change on the bar graph depending on the legend items in the first X Axis item.

    If you tie bar colors with values, how you will differentiate the bars for different legends.
    Take an example, there are three columns Employee, Location and salery have following values
    Employee Location Salery
    A London 30000
    B Chicago 40000
    C London 50000
    D Chicago 60000
    if we keep Location as Legend and Employee in X Axis, and sort Legend first then Employee. Set Blue for Chicago and Red for London, First two blue bars for A and C will be displayed and then two red bars for B and D will be displayed. Order in X axis will be A,C,B and D. This is not in sequence but this is the way it will and it should work. If you sort by Employee instead if Location, you will get sequence in X axis, but the same colored bars wont be together.
    Thanks

  • Change Label Sort Order (in icon view)

    How can I change the order that labels are sorted in?
    In list view, labels are sorted in alphabetical order, so you can change the order by changing the label names, but labels are always in the same order in icon view - and it's not a particularily logical order. It isn't alphabetical, and it isn't in order of the colours (grey - green - purple - blue - yellow - red - orange) and now in Mountain Lion (I just upgraded from Snow Leopard) I can't even keep them arranged in reverse order so the ugly grey is at the bottom.
    Is there any way to change the label sort order for icon view?

    Hello there, SECbc.
    The following Knowledge Base article shows how to sort in Finder:
    Mac Basics: The Finder
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2470
    Specifically:
    In any view, you can organize the window by clicking the item arrangement button and choosing one of the ways to group items.

  • Change the sort order (ascending/descending) based on parameter field

    I have created a formula on a subreport to change sorting based on variables.
    select {?Pm-@Sorting}
    case "property_type_desc ASC" :
    {owned_property.property_type_desc}
    case "property_type_desc DESC" :
    {owned_property.property_type_desc}
    default:
    ({owned_property.property_type_cd}; )
    how can I change the sort order ascending and descending using the formula??
    Thanks, Jessica

    Try this
    1. Create a parameter with 2 default values in the picklist: Descending and Ascending.
    NOTE:
    In Crystal Reports version 5 or 6, it is not possible to have a pick a parameter value from a list. The user must enter a specific value, guided by the prompting text. For example : To Sort in Ascending order type A, to sort in Descending order type D.
    u2022 On the 'Insert' menu, click 'Parameter', then click 'New'.
    u2022 Type the name and prompting text for the parameter in the corresponding boxes.
    u2022 In the 'Type' box, click 'String'.
    u2022 Click 'Set Default'.
    u2022 In the 'Value to add' box, type 'Descending' then click '>' to move it to the 'Default Values' list.
    u2022 Repeat the above step for 'Ascending'.
    u2022 Click 'OK', then click 'OK' again to return to the report.
    2. Create 2 formulas based on the field you want to change the sort direction on:
    u2022 On the 'Insert' menu, click 'Formula', then click 'New'.
    u2022 Create this formula:
    @Asc
    If {?Parameter} = "Ascending" then
    u2022 Save this formula and close the Formula Editor. This brings you back to the Formula tab of the Insert Fields dialog box.
    u2022 Click 'New' and create this formula:
    @Des
    If {?Parameter} = "Descending" then
    u2022 Save this formula and close the Formula Editor.
    u2022 Click 'Close' to return to the report.
    4. Sort the report based on these two formulas.
    u2022 On the 'Report' menu, click 'Sort Records'.
    u2022 In the 'Report Fields' list, click {@Asc} and move it to the 'Sort Fields' list.
    u2022 Under 'Sort Direction', click 'Ascending'.
    u2022 In the 'Report Fields' list, click {@Des} and move it to the 'Sort Fields' list.
    u2022 Under 'Sort Direction', click 'Descending'.
    u2022 Click 'OK' to return to the report.
    Once you preview the report you will be prompted to select a parameter value, which will determine how the report is sorted.
