Ability to sort in print history#244

Sort by like amount used. see what used the most. what cost the most etc…..

Ok I see I can sort my cost but why not filament used?

There are indeed some columns that allow for sorting, and some that don’t. Currently “Status, File, Start & end time and Print cost” can be sorted.

The unsortable columns aren’t sortable at the moment due to technical “difficulties”. The fields that are easy to sort are fields where we store the value in the database very “readable”, like a full number. But some columns contain data derived from multiple different column’s data, such as “Print duration”; this takes the “start date” and “end date” columns and calculate the seconds between start and finish. This makes it a bit more difficult and expensive (compute-wise) to sort this data.

It’s by no means impossible, but we decided to not invest too much time into allowing sorting of these columns unless it became heavily requested.

So, let this suggestion gather upvotes if this too is missed by others!
