Printing not sorted the same way as seem on the monitor

[Charles Dennett]

Robby,

First of all, thanks for Tellico.  I'm using it on my Fedora 40 system. 
The latest version from the Fedora repositories is 3.5.4.

I'm an avid public library user and use Tellico to keep track of the 
books I've read and the books I want to read.  A lot of the books I like 
have recurring characters so I try to read all the books by any author 
with the same characters in series order.  When I sort the list of 
books, I first sort on Series Number (1,2,3...), then on the Series (the 
recurring character's name) and finally on author.  It looks good on the 
monitor.  I also have a filter so I can see just the books I have not 
yet read.

However, if I print the list it only sorts on the author's name.  The 
series and series number look like they might be in the order I 
originally entered them.  I'm guessing here but they are definitely not 
in the order I see on my monitor.  Also, if I select Print Preview under 
the File menu it also only sorts on the author's name.   The collection 
is grouped by author so maybe that's all that counts when it comes to 
printing.

My expectation is that it would print in the same order I see on my 
monitor, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding something.

After typing all that I tried one more thing.  I generated a Group View 
report and printed that.  It was sorted as I wanted.  It came out 
exactly as I saw on the screen.  I guess that's the way to do it.
