I have added a column in the Dataset Viewer for mapped images. I have my images mapped but sorting does not seem to be working on this column. I have the “image Path Column” set to another column in my dataset and that column sorts like it should. I want my new column to sort just like the column it is mapped to. Any suggestions or is there something i am missing?

Hi jerry,

Do you sort by scripting? Mind to share your script here (if there is)? I believe it will be useful to understand the problem you mentioned.
