Pick list field is not sorted as expected

This is not a feature request, but a bug and should be handled as such.

I raised an issue with GS Support.

They rerouted me to this post, but this is not a solution.

Agree with the previous poster, the behaviour should be consistent across fields regardless of field type. Currently the user is given the impression the whole list is sorted when often it is not.

I concur that sorting a picklist field (or any field) with only the records on the currently-displayed page and not the entire dataset is awkward and often misleading. At the very least, I’d like to see an annotation signaling the sort applies only to records appearing on the current page, and ideally I’d like to see the sort apply to all records in the dataset.
