I have a rather weird issue I've never faced before.
After defining my table with borders and such, and filling out data in my table, I try to sort my table according to the "ratio" (first) column, from biggest to smallest.
When I right click the header and select the corresponding option, the table gets sorted, but the first row is omitted by the sorting function.
What I mean is that the first line (with 3.50 ratio) will forever stay at the top line, even when I sort otherwise (by a different column, in a different order).
This is my table below, it's tab separated so it's not very readable, but I hope you'll manage.
