Default sorting for text search

Determines how the results for queries that search for text are sorted by default. The following options are available:

• Relevance — results are sorted in descending order by relevance. This means that issues that contain the highest number of word forms that match the search criteria appear at the top of the list.

  When search results are sorted by relevance, you can choose to override the default at any time by selecting one or more search attributes from the Sort Attributes menu on the Issues list.

  To learn more about sorting search results by relevance, see Sorting by Relevance.

• Updated — results are sorted by the date and time of the most recent update in descending order.

  When this option is selected, the results cannot be sorted by relevance.
