Parameters - Sort Page

Sort sortmethod - - Determines how the table will be sorted.

  • Rows (Specify Column Name) colname - Sort rows using the column specified under the Name parameter.
  • Rows (Specify Column Index) colindex - Sort rows using the column specified under the Index parameter.
  • Rows (Preserve Input Order) colpreserve - Uses the current ordering of the input. This sorting allows parameters such as Preserve First, Unique Output, and Reverse Output to be applied to the original input.
  • Columns (Specify Row Name) rowname - Sort columns using the row specified under the Name parameter.
  • Columns (Specify Row Index) rowindex - Sort columns using the row specified under the Index parameter.
  • Columns (Preserve Input Order) rowpreserve - Uses the current ordering of the input. This sorting allows parameters such as Preserve First, Unique Output, and Reverse Output to be applied to the original input.

Name name - When using Sort Specify Row/Column Name, specify the name in this parameter. If the sort name does not find a match, the output will be unsorted.

Index index - When using Sort Specify Row/Column Index, specify the index in this parameter. If the sort index is -1 or out of bounds, the output will be unsorted.

Order order - - Determines the type of sorting.

  • Alphabetical alpha - Use alphabetical sorting. Numbers are treated as characters, sorted by their ASCII values.
  • Alphabetical with Numbers alphanum - Use alphanumerical sorting.
  • Numbers nums - Use numerical sorting. Characters are all treated as 0, incoming order is preserved.
  • Random random - Randomly sorts the table, uses random Seed parameter below.

Seed seed - The random seed when Sort Order is set to Random.

Ignore Case ignorecase - Ignores case sensitivity when Sort Order is set to Alphabetical or Alphabetical with Numbers.

Preserve First preservefirst - Does not resort the first row or column (depending if Sort is set to Rows or Columns).

Unique Output unique - - Remove duplicate rows/column entries in the sorted row/column.

  • Off off -
  • Single Row/Col single -
  • Entire Rows/Cols entire -

Reverse Output reverse - Reverses the sort order.

  • cook_frame - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the component timeline.
  • cook_abs_frame - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the absolute time.
  • cook_start_time - Time in milliseconds at which the operator started cooking in the frame it was cooked.
  • cook_end_time - Time in milliseconds at which the operator finished cooking in the frame it was cooked.
  • cooked_this_frame - 1 if operator was cooked this frame.
