Hi,
I am creating a report from answers, is there a way to sort answers alphabetically?

Ideally to sort alphabetically based on the last letter?

Best regards,
Ivan

Where do you want to sort these answers? You need to be more specific.

And generally, if there is a function to sort lists alphabetically, it is usually based on the first letters. So even if the option to sort is there, it won't be the way you want it to.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Hi, Ivan,

do you really think, you will get answer?
You did not provide any information, except "I am creating a report from answers".

Hi,
thank you for your replay. I am using plugin pdfreport.
I am using it for evaluation of the subject in school. And i would like to sort it from high to low.

I was thinking it could be done with Expression manager but i did not find any example...

I was thinking there is some sort of general sorting, that is not important where do you put it :)

No,

Expression manager didn't have any «sort» system …

I already have this issue (in the old 2.05) and use javascript to fill a long text question (hidden) to be shown on the next page …
