1345: Sort order of German letters Ä, Ö, Ü [#7479]

Post by pietzke »

If you sort by any Column, entries beginning with the german letters ä, ö and ü appear to the last after Z. They should be traeted as ae, oe and ue.

What happens when you do the same sort in Windows Explorer?

Just tried it. In Explorer Ä is not treated as AE but treated as A. If any following letters are identical, Ä would come after A. Same with Ö->O and Ü->U. Thats how it worked in MM3 too.
Sort order:

aa

äa
ää
ab
äb
ac
äc

Words with the Umlaut- letters ä, ö and ü like "Die Ärzte" are not found by search either.

Sort order should be fixed in Build 1352 (http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=7479). Please confirm.

I can't replicate problems searching for unicode characters in build 1352. Please let me know if you can.

Thanks.
