Why has the sort function been removed for search results?

In 1P 8.9.6, when I search for a specific term, the results no longer show the sort icon. That is an essential feature and should be added back in.

  • Hi @ldsifsdlh

    If you use the Find feature, as opposed to Search, the results will be listed in the same order as before. Here's what to do:

    1. Sort the list to be searched as you like, whether that's alphabetically, or by a date, or frequency or recency of use.
    2. Open Find by clicking the Edit menu > Find..., or pressing ⌥⌘F (Option–Command–F).
    3. Search for your item.

    The results will honour the same sort as you set in step 1.

    Give that a shot and let me know how it works out for you. :)

    I had the same problem/question and found this post... the tip here (set sort order before invoking search, and the same sort order will be honored in search results) to be useful, so thanks for that. I also hadn't realized or expected that Search and Find commands would behave differently in this regard, so, good to know. (I wish the Search results would also offer control over sort order, though.)

    @metamatt I'll pass along that suggestion to the product team for them to consider.

    Thanks both for your feedback about this. :)
