I requested that for the last live coding session. They didn’t get to it, but Glide is aware of the issue.

> This is a small bug with the new ‘limit items’ feature. It doesn’t appear to respect the sort order of a calendar list and always gives priority to the oldest items, even though I’m sorting newest to oldest. It does still sort the results correctly from newest to oldest, but if I limit to 20 items, it’s the oldest 20 items that are sorted from newest to oldest. Not the newest items. I haven’t done extensive testing, but I assume this only affects the calendar style list view.

What are you having a hard time with? I’m just saying in that quote that I haven’t tested the bug very much, but I only think it affects the calendar.
