Save a table in ascending order in order to avoid overlapping proportional circles (QGIS)



Is there a quick way to sort an attribute table in QGIS in ascending order permanently and save it? When you make a map with proportional circles in QGIS the circles overlaps between each other according to their sorting order. I want the smaller circle above the bigger which is why I think sorting can solve this issue.



Note: If I click on the header, the table will be sorted in ascending order using the clicked column. However, if I save it that way and I open it again nothing has changed about row order.



Answer



Finally, that is a very easy treatment with the MMQGIS plugin (Quantum GIS Plugin Repository). It allows to rewrite on another table using selected column and chosen order.

It also works for the circles problem
