Issue with Numerical Order in Task List

[sondreaune 1]

 

Hello Evernote team,

I’ve encountered an issue with the numerical order in my task list. As you can see in the attached screenshot, the list was previously ordered numerically, but it now appears out of order. For example, items that should follow each other in sequence (1, 2, 3, etc.) are now scattered throughout the list.

This seems like a bug, and it disrupts the organization of my notebooks. I'd appreciate any advice on how to resolve this, or if it’s something that needs to be fixed in an upcoming update.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Best regards,
Sondre Lien Aune

I can't access the screenshot. 

Are you sure that the sort order has not been reset to the default ("relevance") rather than by task title?

Bad translation. It is not my tasks, its my notebooks.

Sorting is alphabetical rather than numerical - your numbering can be rescued by adding zeros,  as in 001, 002,  021 etc

Thats a workaround, but it didnt use to be that way.

How long do you intend to go back for "it didn't used to be like that" ? The war ... The depression ... ?

It is consistent that the title field is a text field, and it sorts according to text sort rules. If it would use a mix of text and numerical sort instead, it wouldn't be consistent any more.
