I have joined 2 datasets using column 1, now that they are joined I want to sort using culumn 2. When I perform the sort on column 2 it keeps column one sorted the same way the data was output from the join and only sorts colum two within the column 1 sort.
Example (imagine number column and letter column) data after the join 1 b 1 a 2 c 2 b 2 a 3 b 4 a
What I want 1 a 2 a 4 a 1 b 2 b 3 b 2 c
what galaxy is giving me when i sort using column 2
1 a 1 b 2 a 2 b 2 c 3 b 4 a
can anyone help me perform the sort ignoring column 1? while still keeping the data there?
Galaxy version 16.07.rc1 browser chrome
cheers.
