Sorting

Sorting allows actors to re-organize collection of items when the default order may be insufficient to scan.

Behavior

• The dropdown allows users to choose their sorting criteria.
• Sort selections are meant to be persisted. When actor returns to the page, their previous sort selections will be preserved.
• As soon as an item in the dropdown is selected, the list content re-sorts automatically.
• The default sort order is determined on a page-by-page basis.

To-do

• Table column sorting
• Sorting using multiple attributes
