I have copy/pasted sample code for a custom sort. Unfortunately, what I am seeing requires the user to click twice before they see any results.
I don’t mean “double-click”, but two individual clicks. The directional indicators switch with each click, but the actual sort is only affected every other click:

Please let me know if there is a way to do this better or different, so it sorts with each click.
Hello,
I apologize for the misleading documentation, we will correct it shortly.
The functions included into a custom sorting type receive not the whole item object, but cell values as parameters. So the correct code is:
webix.DataStore.prototype.sorting.as.bystartdate = function(a,b){
return (a*1) > (b*1) ? 1 : -1;
}
Please, check the updated snippet: http://webix.com/snippet/3e4c5fed
If you require the whole item objects for sorting, you need to define a sorting function as:
function bystartdate(a,b){
return (a.year*1) > (b.year*1) ? 1 : -1;
}
...
{ id:"year", sort:bystartdate }
