Question on secondary sort field
Hello,
I am new to Zotero and I am trying to use the secondary sort. I would like to sort first by Creator and then by Year but although the proper fields are selected I end up with a list of publications sorted by Creator but the years are all mixed up.
Maybe it is a misunderstanding on my side but I would assume that the entries should be listed by FIRST author (is that equivalent to creator?) and then by year. However, I realise that my publications often have multiple authors so if the ties are broken according to the FULL list of authors then I understand why it's not sorted the way I think it should. If so it would be interesting to have a way to have the primary sort on FIRST author and then a secondary sort criteria. Is there something that I missed?
Thanks in advance for your help.
