Kibana is unable to sort on some numbers

We're implementing Metricbeat, but it seems that we're able to sort on some fields and not on some other fields.

Mapping:

"filesystem": {
    "properties": {
        "available": {
            "type": "long"
        },
        "device_name": {
            "ignore_above": 1024,
            "type": "keyword"
        },
        "files": {
            "type": "long"
        },
        "free": {
            "type": "long"
        },
        "free_files": {
            "type": "long"
        },
        "mount_point": {
            "ignore_above": 1024,
            "type": "keyword"
        },
        "total": {
            "type": "long"
        },
        "used": {
            "properties": {
                "bytes": {
                    "type": "long"
                },
                "pct": {
                    "scaling_factor": 1000.0,
                    "type": "scaled_float"
                }
            }
        }
    }
},

What could explain we cannot sort on system.filesystem.used.pct?

Hi, property system.filesystem.used.pct is the only property of type "scaled_float". Maybe there is some bug.
Just note - seems you're using fairly old Kibana version (around 4.something?), currently there is 6.2.
