In a given subcollection, I have been making standalone notes with titles such as [001], [002], etc. The idea is that I can highlight everything in the subcollection, right-click, and click on "Generate Report from Selected Items", and these standalone notes will appear at the top, sorted in order by name. Then I can distribute this report to my collaborators.

I've tried appending "?sort=note" to the end. If I do that, I get a list of journal articles in no apparent order, followed by all of my notes, which are correctly sorted in ASCIIbetical order.

Appending "?sort=note/d" to the end gives me my standalone notes first -- which I want! -- but they are sorted in the reverse order. Additionally, my journal articles are still out of order, and it's neither the same order that they were listed in before, nor the reverse of that order!

"?sort=title" puts the standalone notes first -- which I want! -- but they are completely unsorted and out of order. The journal articles are sorted alphabetically, which is nice, but I need the standalone notes to be properly sorted.

This is so close to the solution I want, that it seems I'd benefit from being able to sort multiple columns. Say, something like "?sort=title,note" would first sort by title, and then do a stable sort by note, or something.

Anyway, I think the "?sort=" option needs better documentation -- and if it already has it, I'd like to be pointed in that direction!

Thanks,
