Date Sorting in the Updates

[Dgrm44]

In the updates list when you first start Herolab the date sorting is awful.

Please change the dates to sort by YYYY-MM-DD (instead of DD-MMM-YYYY) so that the newest updates are always at the top. The way it is now is such a pain to browse through and find the newest, and this is such an easy fix.

Mine doesnt even sort by dd-mmm-yyyy im not sure what sort it is, but its definitely not dd-mmm-yyyy and its certainly not yyyy-mm-dd

The first "sort" is actually not date but a Type.

So the HL software itself is always at top with like the PDF plugin. Then it goes to the Games Packages that HL officially supports. Followed by 3PP game packages. Followed by Secondary Update URL game packages.

Within those sort sections it is correctly sorted by a CCYY/MM/DD date formats. I can see how that can look really confusing when first looking at it...

Hi,
I have learned that clicking the bar at the top sorts the rows within each column, and still keeps them in the groups below.

Adding visual separation bars would make this far less confusing.

HL software itself is always at top with like the PDF plugin.
