Should workspaces remember search order?

Help
1

I’m using tags to mark people’s names in meetings. When I click a tag (a name) in the tag pane I want to see all my meeting notes in the search pane that included that person, sorted by most recent first.

I’m also using a hot keyed Workspace to take me back to my daily note plus a few pinned notes I keep open all the time. So I’m always anchored there.

My problem is that saving a Workspace doesn’t appear to save my preferred sort order. So if I click a tag to bring up the notes for a person, they’re always sorted A-Z (I assume because loading a Workspace resets search back to the default).

Does anyone know a way to have sort order remembered when I switch between Workspaces? Or could Workspaces be updated to remember the chosen search order when it was saved?

Thanks.

I just opened my workspace.json file in my preferred editor and searched for ‘search’.
Sort order is indeed saved in the json:

            "sortOrder": "alphabetical"

Not sure if there is a bug to do with seaches involving tags. I cannot investigate.

Hmmm, I can see that too. Thanks.

I’m fine with changing this manually (if it’s the intended behaviour).

Does anyone know what the other options are? Specifically, if “Filename (A to Z)” is “alphabetical”, what is “Created time (new to old)” and “Modified time (new to old)”?
