I have a PowerApps gallery that lists data from 3 different tables and have it normally sorted by the following:
SortByColumns(Filter(Personnel, !Dismissed, txtMSSearchBox.Text in MemberName), "MemberName", If(SortDescending1, SortOrder.Descending, SortOrder.Ascending))
One of the fields is displayed from the below:
Last(SortByColumns(Filter(PersonnelEvents, MemberNumber.Id = ThisItem.ID, EventType.Value="Promotion"), "Date", SortOrder.Ascending)).Title
What I would like to do is sort the gallery by this derived data. Is this even possible?
Can you try making On visible of the screen have an UpdateContext function which saves this formula as a variable.
You can then reference this variable as the column you want to sort by.
i.e something like UpdateContext({mySortColumn: Last(SortByColumns(Filter(PersonnelEvents, MemberNumber.Id = ThisItem.ID, EventType.Value="Promotion"), "Date", SortOrder.Ascending)).Title})
I just hope I really understand what you are trying to achieve, but if this doesn't work, maybe you can explain better what you are trying to do and hopefully I'll be able to help
I have decided to use Flow to update a column in my main table to show the relevant data and thereby sort by that field. I believe this would be an easier way to accomplish what I want.

I am new to DynamoDB so I'm still trying to understand how to use it, but I have what I believe is a simple task but I'm not sure how to address it.
I need to create a table to store categorized questions in which I need to store a click counter. So let's say something like this:
ID: 1
Question: What is this?
Category: General
Clicks: 100
Now, the problem is I need an optimized way to get the most general clicked questions and the most clicked questions by category, let's say a top 10.
In a classic SQL style it would be something like this:
SELECT ID, Question
FROM Questions
ORDER BY Clicks DESC
LIMIT 10
Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to structure the table? I tried the sorting but it always requires a hash key condition, so I don't understand how I can get this done as I need the top 10 results and not a single one.
Thanks in advance!
How are you accumulating the clicks, if you are able to figure out how you accumulate the clicksstream onto the table correctly that will be your answer.
You will need to implement a mechanism that maps incoming clicks to the item record being clicked on and increment it using an atomic counter. With this you will be able to then create a sparse index and sort it in descending order to get what you need.
I am trying to setup a QUERY with dynamic ordering. I've tried to link the ORDER BY function to the output of the dropdown menu but that doesnt seem to work. I have recreated the problem with a simple example: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m3Lhm5lp2DW7XF8hRbDAiOAAsOyCXrie-Nc-0bWG6hA/edit?usp=sharing
I've created a table (3x4) with three variable and would like to dynamically sort the table by each variable through QUERY both ascending and descending.
Would also be interested to learn if it's possible to dynamically setup the direction (ACS or DESC).
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Webko
try:
=QUERY({A2:C6}, "order by Col"&MATCH(F1, A2:C2, 0)&" "&G1)
where G1 dropdown is asc,desc
Right now, I am using a filtering scheme which only looks at the data of the 5 or 6 most common entries in the 'Clinic' field. But, there are a handful of other possibilities which might account for a few rows each. They are too inconsequential to include on their own (I am using pie charts and bar charts), but I would like these rows to be accounted for. For this reason, I would like to create an "Other" category which groups these entries together. What is the best way of doing this? I know I can create a calculated column that groups everything aside from the top 5 or 6 in an other category, but I thought there might be a way to keep working with the original column and achieve the same result.
Unfortunately not. In 6.5.x you will have to write a case statement that will specify everything that is not most common to other.
In 7.0.x you can go to insert binned column. Add the bottom you can use values to create a bin. Add the values you want to the bin and call them "Other". Of course if you look at the column created like this, it is a case statement. But it is a whole lot faster than writing it yourself.
Following phiver I came out with this solution in Spotfire 6.5.2:
Add a calculated column
With something like this:
If(DenseRank(Count([Formation]) OVER ([Formation]),"desc")<10, DenseRank(Count([Formation]) OVER ([Formation]),"desc") & " " & [Formation], "10 Other")
Hope that helps.
First time poster and a Freemarker novice. I'm hoping someone can assist on this. I am currently referencing data from a 1-to-many table using the <#data> directive. I want to sort the results in a particular field order, but I think that can only be done by the <#list> directive. Here's what I have so far:
There's a CART_ABANDONMENT table with the following fields:
CUSTOMER_ID_
PRODUCT_ID
PRODUCT_NAME
PRODUCT_PRICE
ABANDONED_DATE
<#data CART_ABANDONMENT as abandonment><br>
<#filter CUST_ID="${CONTACTS_LIST.CUSTOMER_ID_}"><br>
<#fields PRODUCT_ID PRODUCT_NAME PRODUCT_PRICE ABANDONED_DATE><br>
${abandonment.PRODUCT_NAME} ${abandonment.PRODUCT_PRICE}<br>
</#data>
What I want to do is to list all related results (by CUSTOMER_ID_) and sort them by PRODUCT_PRICE, descending.
It may be something simple, but I haven't been able to find the answer.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Freemarker is powerful tool tool but it's just template engine.
It has the sort directive for list, but it can be applied only to built-in types: String, Number and Date.
You may convert list of you complex type to one or more lists of built-in types and use ?sort in template.
Another way is to pass already sorted(as you want) list to template before processing.
What you want sounds like something that should be solved on the database (SQL) level, especially where you say "list all related results (by CUSTOMER_ID_)". FreeMarker is only the V (for View) in MVC.
Anyone ever see how fogbugz sorts their tables? When you click to sort the column, they actually break the table up into many small tables that have each category of info.
Wondering if anyone knows how they do this?
Looking to implement this feature.
If you take a look through the cases page, and sort you can see what I mean.
Any help would be AWESOME!
Still Haven't figured this one out.
EDIT: #Peter, I don't want to postback and recreate a table every time the header title is clicked for a sort. I also want to know if their is a generic solution for this. If I click on the header to sort, by the way of javascript, it seperates the "one" table into many and I want to know if their is any generic solution for this because its just a MUCH better way of viewing a sorted Table.
EDIT: I do need a javascript sorter, but if you look right down at the implementation of fogbugz, it produces a different result...
Yup, Rich got it (I coded this feature into FogBugz a long while back).
If you have to do this on the client you have no choice but to sort the data, iterate through it generating table row after table row, and every time you hit a new sort value you create a new thead w/ the appropriate information.
To be honest it would be a pretty cool modification to this jQuery plugin: http://tablesorter.com/docs/ and you'd be able to leverage a lot of their work. If you're going to put in the time and create a general solution, might as well make it accessible to the community.
Without knowing specifically how Fog Creek accomplishes this, the way that I would do it is to output a table header, then iterate through the list, outputting a footer and a new header each time the group value changed.
Not sure what answer do you expect. SQL query for this would simply use ordering on selected column, and UI would start new table each time this value changes.
Here is screenshot of FogBugz with this sorting, after clicking on Priority column.

Of course, starting new table doesn't make sense for every column (title, case #).
Edit: If I understand correctly, you're looking for a way how to do this in a browser without loading new page. If this is the case, I would suggest at least some server-side support, which would return your data in correct order, and properly structured for subtables (in xml/json/whatever you use). Your javascript will use this data to recreate tables. I am sure others with more web-ui experience will provide you with better answers.
I've used the Sortable Tables script from Kryogenix with some good results.
I don't know if it is relevant, but we store the results of a query in a temporary table in SQL, and then reference current-row-less-one to see if a Category has changed, and indicate this in the resulset.
In some instances we "indicate" this with a column containing
<tr><td colspan=999>Category Heading</td></tr>
so that the web page can just "inject" that into the table it is building.
SELECT Col1, Col2, ...,
[CATEGORY] = CASE WHEN T1.CategoryCol <> COALESCE(T2.CategoryCol, '')
THEN '<tr><td colspan=999>' + T1.CategoryCol + '</td></tr>'
ELSE ''
END
FROM #MyTempTable AS T1
LEFT OUTER JOIN #MyTempTable AS T2
ON T2.ID = T1.ID - 1
