          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: sort option "left to right" does sort "top to bottom"
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.0.4 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

When I select the sort option from left to right, it still does sort from top
to bottom.

That's the major fault, but the sorting is a major bug and ui collection:

Bugs:
* sort options are not sticky: when  you do select the same range of data
again, the former option such as "Range contains column labels" is not kept.

* sort now failed with the option of column labels: it did show the column
labels to select from, but it still did include the labels within the sorting,
thus moving the first row downwards

User Interface:
* the selection of sort criteria is very user unfriendly. If you want to see a
better implementation, check e.g. FileMaker: A left column with available
fields (labels), a right column to move the fields over and the option to
reorder the selected fields (labels) - either by drag'n'drop or with up/down
arrows

* the major requirement to use the pop up lists is not user friendly. It's a
poor copy of Excel, while over there you still may edit the selection by hand,
e.g. to enter both the label or identifiers such as "column z"

* field selection should trigger automatic sort options: when I do select the
full table, full columns or full rows, it's very probable that this selection
would include range labels. On the other hand, selection of a few cells only
probably could mean no range labels, but data only.
