1.8.2 (Windows 10) Alphabetical sorting of categories

[vovka]

Alphabetical sorting function that is used for categories is wrong for Ukrainian alphabet
here's the screenshots
1. these are newly created categories and they are sorted incorrectly

2. these are the same categories after XnViewMP restart, the sorting is different from the first screenshot but is also wrong

3. this screenshot is made in XnView 2.51.7, i created the same categories, and here the order is correct

this is the link to Ukrainian alphabet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_alphabet
but i suspect this problem persists not only for Ukrainian but for other alphabets as well

thank you

[xnview]

could you send me as text, the category's name in ukrainian?

here it is (in wrong order)

Code: Select all

test
	Є
	І
	А
	Б
	З
	Ґ

i've found this https://vyspiansky.github.io/2017/03/10 ... -in-mysql/
it's mysql not sqlite, but just to show that this problem is quite common

The order of categories in Catalog Filter is not correct in 1.8.5

+1
there should not be pre/post restart difference in sort order (collation) and the correct one must be applied right after creating a new object

However, both orders you posted are wrong, it should be like in windows (- + 1 a).
Clean install of the app may help, as in my 1.8.5 the sort order is correct after app restart.
