Normal topicComposer sorting

Hello there,

I'm continuing to organize my library, and I'd like to have a uniform composer's view like "TT AA;;;LL BB;;;SS CC" and so on. In other words, composers sorted by last name.The current sorting does it by the first name (LL BB;;;SS CC;;;TT AA). Is there a way to sort composers by the last name, but without the permutation of "AA, TT;;;BB, LL"?

Many thanks in advance.

Normal topicComposer sorting

The Sort Form functionality recognizes the Multi Value Delimiter. However if you want each item post sorted it requires two steps:

You can do this is the UI in the Multi Field Editor as follows:

Sort Form Panel; Set Last Name, First Name function.
Sort Form Panel; Sort Multiple Items function.

In an action use two successive Sort Form statements:

eg.

Set for last name, first name in the Composer field
Sort multiple items in the Composer field

Both statements are Sort Form statements.

Thanks a lot for your quick response !

It works.

Actually, I could have figured it out by myself 🙁 But it's easier to ask 😳 (laziness is evil)
