Editor: Ordering Select Options

kmbonin

I have a select box on my editor with taskNumbers and taskNames. This code in my controller:

Field(new Field("logan_dvprTasks.taskNumber")
                        .Options("logan_dvprTemplateTasks", "taskNumber", "taskName")
                        .Validator(Validation.DbValues()))

orders the list by taskName asc. I would like the list ordered by taskNumber asc instead. I tried

q=>q.Order("taskNumber") 

but that gave me an error with an empty where clause. How can I order the select list by taskNumber?

With the current DataTables.dll I'm afraid that this isn't possible. You'd need to modify the library's code as it will always render using the rendered string.

Editor 1.6, which I expect to be available in early December, will have this ability.
