[Bug 917599] Re: Bible verses not sorted when sending to preview or live

 

>From my point of view this is not a bug.

        Generates and formats the slides for the service item as well as the

We actually just take the items the way Qt gives us them. We do not do
anything "special" to make things work the way the work.

And I'd expect people not to press "End" and then "shift + home" when
the whole chapter is already selected. ;-)

In your situation this behaviour is not wanted. But in other situations it is. However, the main point is, that in the case of removing this behaviour we also remove one special way you can use openlp.
Let me give you an example... the preacher comes to you to give you the bible passages. Genesis 1,1, Genesis 2, 2, Mark 2, 4 and Joh 3,16. After search all passages in the order the preacher has given them to the operator the preacher continues: "But first John 3, 16 then the two verses from Genesis and finally Mark." And now? Do the search again?
