i would like to sort a view by the point total and the number of votes. (votes are cast using Vote Up/Down) for example, node A with a point total of 3 and 10 votes sorts above node B with a point total of 3 and 3 votes.

i can't see how to do this. in order to sort on the value of the point total, i have to define a "Node: Vote results" relationship and set the Aggregation function to "Total score", and then sort on "Vote results: Value". and though i seem to be able to then create a second Vote results relationship, i can't use it for sorting - i can't distinguish between the two.

what am i missing about how to use this? or is it actually something that can't be done?

Have a look at this step-by-step instructional videocast on lullabot: Building Views with Fivestar and VotingAPI
Should get you started.

thanks. the key was the Label field in the relationship definition - setting each relationship up with a different Label value, those labels are then selectable in the Relationship select field when i add a Sort criterion. as usual, it's perfectly logical now that i understand it :)
