Sub-sorting doesn't appear to work on my system (or I'm doing something basic wrong). If I click the 'Author(s)' header, then the 'Title' header, my library is sorted only by 'Title'.

I'm running 0.7.23 on Fedora 14-64 (this is the version in the repo). I've tried various things such as ctrl-clicking, etc, just in case I was missing something. Looking through the forums, it looks like a couple of other people have mentioned it not working; but it's not clear if they were just older versions. AFAICT, sub-sorting has been implemented since before 0.7...

Any thoughts on why this might be? I expect I can get around it by sticking in a custom derived column, and just sorting on that... but I'm wondering if I have actually missed something simple.

Alternatively, is there any other way to sort the list, aside from clicking the grid headers?

TIA
