Re: [QGIS-Developer] Processing: sort algorithm not working?

2020-11-23 Thread Arnaud Morvan

Hi Andreas.

Note that the order of features in attributes table does not seems to 
reflect the source order.


After sorting your dataset with sortbyexpression, try to add a 
auto-incremental field and open this new output in attribute table.


Sort this attribute table by the new auto-incremental field. If the 
order is good, it is not a sortbyexpression issue, but an attribute 
table issue.

Hi,

I have a model where at the very end before adding it to the project I was

But: the sorting doesn't work. In the help there is the cryptic hint at
https://docs.qgis.org/3.10/de/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/vectorgeneral.html#qgisorderbyexpression
that "Be careful, it might not work as expected with some providers, the
order might not be kept every time."

Does someone know more about it? Which providers specifically do not
support sorting?

Does this statement apply to the reading provider or the writing provider?

In my case, I never got any correct sorting ...

Thanks,
Andreas
