Sorting Problem
0%
Description
-The sorting button does not put games in ABC order.
-The sorting buttons should categorize the games by their systems and then put them in ABC order within their system (and not overall with both systems). That means GC games should be alphabetized separated from the WII games.
-Pressing the sort button should show Cube games first, then Wii games 2nd. Pressing it again after this should show Wii games 1st and Cube games 2nd.

That's not how it's supposed to work at all. If you sort by system, it'll sort that way, and then among systems, it'll sort by whatever it was last sorted by. So if you want to sort by gc and then by abc, you need to first sort by abc, then by system.
However, the primary sort is now saved, but not the secondary, so that does need to be fixed.

Ok, I see how the alphabetizing works now. So it's not possible to press the sort by system button once to have cube first and then twice to have wii first?

Oh whoops, didn't notice that. No, it is not currently possible to sort by reverse system, but i'll fix that as well.

So uh, yeah, we can't sort by platform ascending because COLUMN_PLATFORM = 0, and -0 isn't a thing. Adding a dummy column to the beginning allows it to be sorted easily enough, but then the platform icon is missing (http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/browse/Source/Core/DolphinWX/Src/GameListCtrl.cpp#417). I'm not sure how to fix that. I'm also not sure if there's an easier/better way to fix this.

Ok, just fixing the secondary sort saving only would do if another user can't figure it out as well.

That works, but not sure if certain people will object to using a blank column. If they do, then i don't know how else to fix this.

A blank column as in replacing the logo column or as in a separate empty column? People may not like it if it replaces the logos, but they may not mind if it's just an empty column apart from the logos.

It's a new 0 pixel column. It doesn't change the appearance at all.
