Sort within arrangement?

I arrange my Finder folders by kind. I love the ability to see my folders at the top of the listings. In the Finder windows themselves, they are nicely sorted by name within kind. However, when I use a SaveAs/Open dialog, they are arranged but no longer sorted. Very inefficient!
Anyway of fixing this?
TIA,
David

Hi
If you need independent control of each LoopBack I would not group them. Simply use one as a "Master" and have all the others play in Sync with the MS clock.
I use individual Play, Stop Record etc controls for each LoopBack. Set them to Start at the beginning of a Bar

Custom sorting within "for-each-group:current-group"

Hi, I need some help in doing a custom sort within a "for-each-group:current-group". My formatting is in a table format but I'm not sure how to post a table here so I'm just arranging the column details out as it would look in a table. I have a column on the left for the YEAR and a second column on the right for the DESCR. Under the DESCR column I've inserted a nested table with four columns: SUBJECT, CATALOG_NBR, DESCR250 and GRADE.
COLUMN 1:
<?for-each-group:row_table;./ YEAR?><?sort: YEAR;'ascending';data-type='text'?><?YEAR?>
COLUMN 2:
<?for-each-group:current-group();./DESCR?><?DESCR?>
NESTED TABLE (with 4 columns):
+<?for-each:current-group()?><?SUBJECT?><?CATALOG_NBR?><?DESCR250?><?GRADE?><?end for-each?>+
<?end for-each-group?> <?end for-each-group?>
I'm able to sort by YEAR in the "for-each-group" on the left column. But I also want to do a custom sort on DESCR in the right column.
I've seen this blog on custom sorting by Vetriselvan: http://winrichman.blogspot.com/2009/09/custom-dynamic-sort-in-bi-publisher.html and I tried inserting this sort below after <?for-each-group:current-group();./DESCR?> but I get an error message.
<?sort:(number(DESCR='Status')*1)+(number(DESCR='First Semester')*2)+(number(DESCR='Second Semester')*3);'ascending';data-type='number'?>
I've also seen this thread: Re: Sort within group and tried inserting <?for-each:DESCR?> before the sort (as below) - this time I can preview the results, but it is not sorting as required.
<?for-each:DESCR?><?sort:(number(DESCR='Status')*1)+(number(DESCR='First Semester')*2)+(number(DESCR='Second Semester')*3);'ascending';data-type='number'?>
Can anyone help me custom sort the DESCR column? I'm using Template Builder for Word version 5.6 build 45. Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Vetsrini,
I tried adding <?sort: ./DESCR;'ascending';data-type='text'?> after <?for-each-group:current-group();./DESCR?> but I'm getting an error message.
The DESCR values are below and I'm trying to sort them in the following order.
STATUS
SUMMER SEMESTER
FIRST SEMESTER
AUTUMN SEMESTER
WINTER SEMESTER
SECOND SEMESTER
SPRING SEMESTER
Because I need them in the above order, I can't use ascending or descending, and instead need to use a custom sort order. Do you know how I can go about creating a custom sort order?
Thanks!

Sort within an array?

public class Input3
     private String[] input = new String[40];
     private static int StringNum = -1;
     public static final int NUMBER_OF_TEAMS = 3;
     public static final int NUMBER_OF_PLAYERS = 5;
     public Input3()
          //The first six inputs will be for the first team
          input[0] = "LAKERS";
          input[1] = "Kobe Bryant";
          input[2] = "Derek Fisher";
          input[3] = "Shaquille O'Neal";
          input[4] = "Karl Malone";
          input[5] = "Brian Cook";
          //The next six inputs will be for the second team
          input[6] = "MAVERICKS";
          input[7] = "Antoine Walker";
          input[8] = "Dirk Nowitzki";
          input[9] = "Tony Delk";
          input[10] = "Shawn Bradley";
          input[11] = "Travis Best";
          //The next six inputs will be for the third team
          input[12] = "KNICKS";
          input[13] = "Mike Sweetney";
          input[14] = "Allan Houston";
          input[15] = "Howard Eisley";
          input[16] = "Kurt Thomas";
          input[17] = "Shanon Anderson";
     //This method returns the strings one after the other.
     public String getNextString()
          StringNum++;
          return input[StringNum];
}What I'm supposed to do with this is sort that data by last names within each team. By that I mean I have to sort input[1] through input[5] by last names, input[7] through input[11] by last names, and same for the Knicks team. I'm not sure how to do 3 separate sorts within an array.
The output should look like this:
KNICKS:
Sharon Anderson
Howard Eisley
Allan Houston
Mike Sweetney
Kurt Thomas
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Yeah, I don't really understand it. But my professor actually gave us that code to work with to be part of a bigger assignment. I actually just posted another question about the same assignment if you want to look at that to see if it might help.
I dunno how to use the insert link button on here so I'll just let you copy and paste if you are interested in helping me out... Thanks!

What is the difference between "Sort By", "Arrange By", and "Clean Up By"?

What is the difference between "Sort By", "Arrange By", and "Clean Up By"? They are different from SL.

A MAC address is a unique identification consisting of letters and numbers in a form that looks like this:
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Every network device has a MAC address, which can be found on a label on the bottom or back of the device. Apple calls this the Ethernet ID.
A DHCP Client ID is an optional name that you can assign to a device. For example, on your Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Network
Click on Ethernet
Click Advanced at the lower right
You may be able to edit the DHCP Client ID here....for example.....you could enter MJ500's MacBook in the space provided. That would be the Client ID of your Mac.

Not able to use @section and Sort within a group in RTF Template

When i try to use sort with for-each-group@section in my template, the Output Post processor is throwing the following exception
Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XSLException: <Line 31, Column 84>: XML-22047: (Error) Invalid instantiation of 'xsl:sort' in 'fo:flow' context.
My tags in the RTF template are as below:
<?for-each-group@section:G_PERSON_ID;./DEPT?><?sort:DEPT;'ascending';data-type='text'?>
-- there are 2 more groups within this.
<?end for-each-group?>
I don't get the error if i remove @section from the above tag in my RTF template.
OR
IF i remove the sort tag and keep the @section , it still works.
I need the "sort" so that i can sort the output by department number and I need the "section" so that i can acheieve context based header title for the page using the tag given below in the header area of the word RTF doc. The DEPT number should change as per the data shown in the report.
DEPT <?DEPT?> CLASSIFICATION SENIORITY LISTING BY CLASS CODE & DATE
I am stuck with either being able to use the Sort or the Header feature but not both.
I guess that section is needed for the context based header title to work, because all the data shown in the current page should correspond to only one single DEPT value (to make the Header title consistent with the data). But i dont get why i am not able to sort. The exception from OPP simply beats me. Please help!!
I am using the XML Pub Desktop 5.6.2 to develop my templates.
Is there any way to acheive this? Can someone throw some light on this.
Thanks in advance.

Help About says I'm on 20.0.1
Up until last week, I was able to use the tab key when typing emails and other multi-line text boxes.
Suddenly the behavior of the tab key changed. This isn't the first time. It's been quite a while ago that the function of the tab key changed from indenting to moving around the page, then after some time it changed back to indenting.
Can we get this fixed and leave it alone, please?
I may give one of those add-ins a try, but my problem with add-ins is that they break when FF is patched or upgraded, then I'm left with out the solution they provide.
Can we just fix Firefox, please?
Thanks,

P.S. Another potential fix I came across suggested starting FF in safe mode to see if the problem goes away. It does not. It seems to be a change to FF that appeared after an update last week. On or just befor 24 Apr.

Sorting within Bridge

I was using Bridge the other day and noticed that the sorting is not "sticky" from one folder to another.
Example:
Folder called Choices: sort manually. Arrange photos the way I want to work with them.
Folder called images: sort by file name to locate a file to copy to the Choices folder
Go back to the Choices folder: all files are now sorted by file name and not manually as originally set.
Why does this happen and is there any way to make the individual folders sort independently of the way other folders are sorted?
thanks,
hopper

Robert,
I went back and looked and you are correct in how it sorts. Thank you for that! BUT ...
Let me explain the step I was missing to make it work correctly:
Folder called Choices: sort manually. Arrange photos the way I want to work with them.
Folder called images: sort by file name to locate a file to copy to the Choices folder
Go bck to the Choices folders, RESET the sorting view back to Manual, all files are properly sorted manually, as they were prior to step 1 in this example
My error was that, I expected that the folder would remain sorted the way I set it up to be, as it is in Windows. I didn't realize that I must reset the sort every time.
Thanks for the assistance.
as a side note: I believe that Adobe should make the sorting "sticky" from one folder to another. Perhaps in future upgrades?

Sorting within iPhoto albums: eliminate carryover from prior manual sorts?

I am working with a large series of photos from a recent vacation, arranging the images for captioning and sharing as slideshows. I've pulled the images over to new albums, one per day, and would ideally sort them once by date, then change to manual sort and adjust a few images' position in the queue. But when I switch from date sort to manual sort, the images immediately revert to a relatively random-looking order that I think must be the order in which they were edited and then pulled into the finishing album. Since some of these albums include several hundred photos, the idea of starting over with completely manual sort of all of the images is VERY painful. Sorting them by date and then copying and dragging the sorted images to a new album, and then resetting to manual sort, reverts them to the same order they had in the previous album.
Any suggestions for how to fix the date sort some way, then do a fresh manual sort that leaves the date sort as my starting point?
(and is the question clear?)

Another thank you.
I could not figure out how to manually movie my photos & videos. "Manually" & "Reset manual" were greyed out in Smart Albums. So I deleted Smart Albums and just made an "Album." "Manually & "Reset manual" magically appeared un-greyed.
Took me awhile to figure out that you can only manually move the last picture or video.

Files Not Sorting Within Folders

I have my working AppleWorks files on my external HD. Recently the files within folders donot sort. As a test I changed a file name staring with an M to an A. The file did not sort to the top of the list. As far as I can tell nothing has changed within my system. The files on my system HD are OK. The other files on the external HD are OK - only the AW files are wrong.
Under the "view" options the name sort is only available for the Desktop. When I open the external HD or highlight a folder the name sort option is not available. I must be missing something but what..

Sort within group

I have several groups within groups, and on my last grouping:
<?for-each-group:current-group();./TASK?>
I'd like to sort alphabetically by task, but can only seem to sort on the highest group I have:
<?for-each-group:G_DEPT;./DEPT?><?sort:DEPT;'ascending';data-type='text'?>.
Is it possible to sort on the current group task? I just get a dump when I try to add the sort tag after for each statement.
thanks

I'm not sure about your <?for-each-group?> element because I haven't seen your data. This is an example from one of my reports.
<?for-each-group: current-group();ELEMENT_NAME?>
<?for-each:ELEMENT_NAME?>
<?sort:PROC_PRIORITY?>

Cannot sort within TreeSet

Hello,
i have the following problem. I want to sort a file within TreeSet. I want to sort it after the value, not the Key. But it doesn't work...
I have a file that looks so:
academic 2
addison 4
agents 1
alan 1
algorithm 3
algorithms 3
alternative 1
ant 2
api 2
applied 1
applying 1

bertsekas 3
binder 2
booch 2
books 3
borland 1
chain 3
chains 2
class 1
coding 1
cohen 1
colony 1
...and I want to sort them after the "number".
So I use treeset to do that and take an own class, called "sorting.java" to sort that stuff after the numbers.
That is the class sorting:
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class sorting implements Comparable
        public String text;
        public int number;
        public sorting(String t, int n)
                text = t;
                number = n;
        public void setText(String text)
                this.text = text;
        public void setNumber(int number)
        this.number = number;
        public String getText()
        return text;
        public int getNumber()
        return number;
                // compareTo methode from the interface Comparable
                // 0 means objects are equal -> new object will not be sorted in
                // 1 means Object o is bigger than o
                // -1 means Object o is smaller than o
        public int compareTo(Object o)
                if(o == null || !(o instanceof sorting) || this == o)
                        return 0;              // object is null or from another type or the same
                sorting mc = (sorting)o;
                // the text will be compared
                int comp = text.compareTo(mc.getText());
                // texts are the same
                if(comp == 0)
                // number will be compared
                        if( mc.getNumber() > number)
                                return 1;
                        return -1;
                // the result of the cpmparison the thext will be returned
                return comp;
}and then I add the File to TreeSet:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class test
        public static void main(String []args)
                throws Exception
                String text = "l";
                int number = 0;
                TreeSet tree = new TreeSet();
                FileReader n = new FileReader("neuhttp:**aps.im.isu.edu.tw*papers.htm");
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(n);
                String string_und_Zahlen;
                String line = "", firstToken = "";
                int secondToken = -1;
                StringTokenizer st = null;
                while((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
                {                                                                       // if line is null you have reached EOF
                        st = new StringTokenizer(line);                                 // using the default delimiters
                        text = st.nextToken();
                        number = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());                      // getting the token and converting it to an int
                        tree.add(new sorting(text, number));
                Iterator iter = tree.iterator();
                sorting s;
                while (iter.hasNext())
                        s = (sorting)tree.first();                         // "first()" gives me the first objekt from the treeset, cause i only want to have the object with the highest number ...
                        System.out.println(s.getText() + "   " + s.getNumber());
}but I get the first line from the unsorted file.... WHY?

Hi,
just some suggestions:
your class sorting does not fulfil all the requirements for a TreeSet:
- the implementation of compareTo has at least one error: if both objects are equal, then you return -1 instead of 0.
- the class sorting has no consistent implementation of equals and hashCode.
Might be, this causes your problems!

Sorting within Top N

In CR2008, I'm using the Group Sort Expert to get the top 12 most used procedure codes per financial class and facility. I would like to be able to sort the list by code, though, rather by units, which the top 12 selection relies on. Is there some really blatantly easy way to do this I'm missing?
Thanks.

The report sums the units for each procedure code in the code footer, and gives me the top 12. I would like those top 12 sorted by code, rather than the units, although I want the sum of the units to be what selects the top 12.
I know I could modify the query to do the summing, and then display the summed lines as details rather than as summarized footers, but that's not really what I had in mind at the moment.

Sorting within Hierarchical Structures

Hello,
I have a hierarchical tree structure that returns from an SQL statement of mine using START WITH and PRIOR etc.
My question is how can I sort the children of a parent.
As an example, my tree returns:
Parent
Child 1
Child 2
Child 1 of Child 2
Child 2 of Child 2
Child 3 of Child 2
Child 3
etc, etc..
But I want to be able to dictate the order in which everything is displayed. For example, I want to be able to do this:
Parent
Child 1
Child 3
Child 2
Child 2 of Child 2
Child 1 of Child 2
Child 3 of Child 2
I have some sort order fields in my table but I just can't get the right SQL clause.
Should I be trying to run multiple SQL clauses? or is there a Magic Golden SQL statement to solve my problems?
Any help (I don't need the code as such, just the strategy) will ge great.
rgds

Looks like you have an arbitrary sorting order (2, 1 ,3). You might be better of populating a table
(temporary, plsql or persistant) and then using a form (or some other method) to assign the sort order.
best of luck.

Default initial sorting within report

Hi, dear Apex-Insiders,
One page of my application contains a report that is selecting all from a table.
I do allow that the results may be orderer on any column.
Nevertheless, by calling this page from another page I always want the same initial order. But application express remembers the settings of the call before.
Is it possible to suppress this behaviour ? And how to manage this ?
Thanks in advance,
Hergen.

Hi Rob,
I did not completeley understand the advice given in that thread.
But it brought mo to the following idea:
Create Process as:
Process Point: On load - Before Header
Run Process: Once Per Page Visit
Process: RESET_USER_PREFERENCES.
That is not 100% what I wanted, but very close to it.
Whenever this page is invoked from another page the sorting is at the default.
It is also at the default when I submit a procedure at the same page (which I did not want, but can accept).
Thank you for your help,
Hergen.

Sorting within sorted columns?

Is it possible to sort columns by say artist & say track names all at one time? If so how is this done?
Thanks in advance

Yes, it is.
Use the Songs view, and turn on the Column Browser. Then select the artist you're interested in and finally click on the Name column so the arrow points upwards - as shown below:
<picture>
While the artist is highlighted, the additional (greyed out) selection of "All Genres" and "All Albums" ensures that every song by The Beach Boys is shown, even if they are from different genres.
This doesn't work for artists who only appear on compilation albums though. There is a way to see them, but it's a bit more involved.
To do this, use the Songs view, and turn on the Column Browser. (Oddly, the shortcut for the Column Browser - CTRL+SHIFT+B - isnt working in iTunes 11.1.3.8, so click on the View/Column Browser/Show Column Broswer if you have the same problem. CTRL+B will turn on the menu bar at the top (with View on it).

Sorting within events and between events

I imported pictures from my external to my new imac running iLife 08; iPhoto created some albums which I still have to figure out as they have photos in them that I want removed or resorted.
a. Now, I wish to resort pictures within an iphoto imposed event. It used to be easy with albums and iphoto 6 but not so here.
b. How can I move photos from event to event or will iphoto simply move them back anyway because of the date?
GH

Thanks
I had my photos on an bootable external drive with a system and then I imported them to my new machine via iphoto 7 (8) probably with the import menu command. Do all my photo images in my iphoto app (on external HD) reside in pictures/iphoto library. If so, should I dump the photos from the new iphoto library and restart iphoto 7 with option key down and select the picture/iphoto library on the external thence reimporting the files; maybe then the original albums etc will arrive intact??
