Sorting ArrayCollection after filtering

I need to order an ArrayCollection after it gets filtered. I also need to
filter it in a descending order. Can I set an order beforehand and then
when ArrayCollection is filtered and refreshned the order will take a
place?

Thanks

Yes you can do both at the same time.  Using the filterFunction [1] and the sort[2] properties.  If it doesn't update automatically call refresh().

But the question is whether I can use a single refresh to get both
filtering and ordering working.

You can filter the AC first and then sort it using Sort and SortField:
