  • Conversion of a shape to kml file.The issue is to sort by month and not by alphabetic or numeric way
attribute value of a field in a specific order of my attribute

 

I have an issue as I would like to sort my output kml file in a hierarchical way. I have for the moment sort by country (alphabetic, 1order), by year(numeric,2 order) and I would like to sort now by month but not in an alphabetical way, but from jan, feb, mar...... That means in a monthly order. I have got the value in a field of my shapefile, but I do not know how to display it correctly by month.

 

 

Does anybody know the way to do it ?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

Use an attributevaluemapper to assign a number to a month

 

so

 

Jan = 1

 

Feb  = 2

 

Mar = 3 etc. and then sort by this new attribute
Hi,

 

Thank you for your answer.

 

I tried to add attributevaluemapper on my long process but it did not work. Maybe I did not add the right parameters or I did not add this attributevaluemapper at the right place. Could you tell me if there some parameters to add?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Arnaud
After many many tries it works. Thanks for your solution!
