TYPO3 Core

is this fixed with the new FormEngine?

Hi, just came across this one.

Is this still relevant, since special is deprecated in v11 (see: #93837)?

Hi, I just checked this again and tested the https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-tca/main/en-us/ColumnsConfig/Type/Select/Properties/SortItems.html option. Will this resolve you issue? Example configuration could be:

'config' => [
    'type' => 'select',
    'renderType' => 'selectSingle',
    'itemsProcFunc' => \Vendor\Ext\ItemsProcFunc::class . '->getItems',
    'sortItems' => [
        'label' => 'asc'
    ],
],

Yep, just tried this on be_groups.tables_select and the items from the itemsProcFunc there where sorted by label as expected.

So this was solved with #91008.
