Question - Does anyone have a working copy of examples/demo_tables.lua that sorts when you click column headers?

[Diebold666]

I don't know if I corrupted my copy somehow, or if it's never worked, or worked before I downloaded next but got broken in a patch, but after spending two hours trying to figure out why sorting on clicking column headers doesn't work, I'll put on the idiot hat and ask why isn't it working? Did it ever work or is it part of a todo list? Poking around https://gitlab.com/macroquest/next/mqnext/-/tree/master/src/plugins/lua/contrib/imgui didn't reveal anything.

I know the MacroQuest Console>Windows>ImGui Demo works fine - I presume now it's just the compiled ImGui_demo.cpp and not Lua code. I'm talking specifically about the .Lua example included showing how to work with tables in the examples folder. You can click on the ID column, the Name or Quantity columns all day long and it never changes sort order and sorts off those.

Just ran the version in my examples folder. Can confirm sorting does not work when clicking on column headers.

Changing this

        local flags = bit32.bor(ImGuiTableFlags.Resizable, ImGuiTableFlags.Reorderable, ImGuiTableFlags.Hideable, ImGuiTableFlags.MultiSortable,
            ImGuiTableFlags.RowBg, ImGuiTableFlags.BordersOuter, ImGuiTableFlags.BordersV, ImGuiTableFlags.NoBordersInBody, ImGuiTableFlags.ScrollY)

to

        local flags = bit32.bor(ImGuiTableFlags.Resizable, ImGuiTableFlags.Reorderable, ImGuiTableFlags.Hideable, ImGuiTableFlags.Sortable, ImGuiTableFlags.MultiSortable,
            ImGuiTableFlags.RowBg, ImGuiTableFlags.BordersOuter, ImGuiTableFlags.BordersV, ImGuiTableFlags.NoBordersInBody, ImGuiTableFlags.ScrollY)

made the table sortable for me (added .Sortable flag in addition to the .MultiSortable).

After ImGui was updated a couple months ago the behavior of MultiSortable changed.
Sortable is required to be able to sort at all, and enables sorting by single column.
MultiSortable allows sorting by multiple columns, but only works if Sortable is also set.

as I suspected that line at 309 got mutated, so I've been working with a broken file. /SMH
