Have the system use the Sorts defined in Views when using the Views in Reports and Projects

Currently, the only time the pre-defined sorts in a view (ie: sorts specified and saved in a view) are utilized is in a report (ie: View = Report Default).

a) If you change the view on the report - from Report Default to another view - and the newly selected view has its own sorts defined, the report uses the sorts from the Report Default view; the report does not use the sorts defined in the selected view.

b) Pre-defined sorts in views are not utilized when using views in a project.

All of the above was confirmed by Workfront Support.

Would like the system to use the sorts defined in the selected view, both in reports and in the project.

Thanks

And 8 years later, this is still an issue.  If another view has a different sort order, then that should be applied when the view is selected, no matter the default sort order.
