As I recall, you wanted to be able to save column order/sizes without changing your sort order in a View.

In the latest test version, I was trying to allow separate Views that only do Sort and nothing else. But I see that I failed--if you uncheck "Columns in Split(right) Pane", the splitter is removed.
I decided to stick with version 1.3.2 when you did the changes to create a view from existing settings (Rellwood's request), that was in Oct 2016. When I used that feature the newly created view included the current column positions, order, and widths, but it did not included the current VM sort settings - for me that rendered the feature practically useless. But the show stoppers were:
  • Under some circumstances the "Date/timestamp" column was being included the sort specs, which I regarded as bizarre - your recent discovery sheds some new light on that.
  • My setting of Automatically apply view was being reset from a named View (e.g. "Published") to "*Last view used" all the time.
I'll try to recreate those problems when you release a new version and report back. But given -- my 'set and forget' usage of the plugin; not having a need to link VLs and VMs; and only having a casual interest in SV - its not something I want to spend much time on.
