BUG: Sorting by Dimension Doesn't Work Properly

Sort by Dimensions (plural) in Bridge doesn't sort by taking BOTH dimensions into account. If I want to find the images with the longest side, then the sorting doesn't work. It only looks at the image height. In other words, at this time, it should be called SORT BY PIXEL HEIGHT. Example: An image with a pixel dimension (WxH) of 7360 x 4912 gets ranked as a smaller dimension than one with a dimension of 7184 x 5310 pixels. That's because it's comparing the 2nd dimension, the width. (This has nothing to do with RESOLUTION, and there's already a sort for that. That one's all about the total number of pixels, or Length times Width.

APPLICATION: I have a directory of digital images (scanned from film) and I want to rescan the ones that are at a lowest resolution.

Thanks for your help with this obvious bug.

I'm fully updated an yet for some biuzarre reason your fix hasn't worked AGAIN. Both the newest versions of Bridge and LIghtroom can't seem to sort images by dimension. Vertical images and horizontal images are blended together in some way that doesn't make any sense.

Still no answers, here, after a year-and-a-half!
To clarify, the dimension is only based on pixel height, not the largest side.

I have the same problem with Bridge 2022 12.0.3.270.  Very annoying. I want to create a slidewhow for Instagram with images 1080x1080, so I'm trying to rule in./out the ones I need to modify.
