Sorting dates by ascending / descending

Open tjex opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sorting ascending or descending for date is either not yet integrated, or is buggy. I am trying with format 2021-11-30 (YYY-MM-DD)

Describe the solution you'd like To be able to sort dates / numbers ascending and descending via a button in the sidebar (currently where other options are also found)

Additional context Obsidian v0.12.19 Choosing Ascending / descending simply swaps the two months of November with each other. It does not move December to the top or bottom.

Also some unexpected behavior with sorting ascending/descending with capital letters. It sorts all capital letters at first and afterwards those with small letters.

What I expect to be sorted:

antilope
Cat
date
Dog
elefant
Fancy
girl

What the plugin does:

Cat
Dog
Fancy
antilope
date
elefant
girl

Maybe it needs an option to toggle these?
