If your data is 28,000,000, the DG will now sort alphabetically because that isn't number, but rather a string. I actually think the old behavior just chopped off 28, 16, 6 and 4 and sorted by those numbers such that 28,123,456 and 28,234,567 weren't guaranteed to be ordered.
If you want numeric sorting, data should be of type int or Number and a labelFunction should be used to format what you see. This behavior become more strict in order to fix a bug where there was no way to specify non-numeric sorts in mixed alpha/number strings. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nate Pearson Sent: Monday, October 01, 2007 4:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] My column doesn't sort correctly in Flex 3 Beta 2 My column used to sort correctly, IE: 28,000,000 16,000,000 6,000,000 4,000,000 Now in Beta 2 with no code changes I get: 16,000,000 28,000,000 4,000,000 6,000,000 What gives? Is it sorting it alphabetically? If so how do I change it back to the way it was? Thanks, Nate
