And there doesn't seem to be any sorting options available to tell Hikashop to show the values (in my case in a single dropdown field) alphabetically.

After working through the documentation I thought I had everything set up correctly, but no values where show in the filters (just 'All'). Then I discovered that when I change the Category in the filter to something else then the root category (the one I had selected, including sub categories), an error message pops up saying the Custom field I had chosen is not available for this category).  So, what I don't get is, if all my product have this custom fields, why wouldn't it be available in a certain category (and why DOES it seem to be available in the root category, where no error shows up)?  And am I doing this the right way if I want to use values from a product custom field in a filter? Or is the filter just for category custom fields?
