reverse sorting of 'Projections > Viewpoints' list

Post by hproe »

Hi -

I have a very long list of view points under Projections > Viewpoints. Now it is listed by date, with the most recent entry at the bottom. Having the list sorted in reverse order, i.e. the most recent entry on top, would make its use easier, at least for me. Even more flexible: give a choice for the sort order locally or in the Properties. This might also apply to other lists.

Hi HP,

Thanks for your suggestion. I wrote up Inquiry 2803 to add the ability to change the sorting of the viewpoints. I added to the inquiry that adding the ability to sort the list alphabetically as well as create sub-menus (e.g. Europe > Spain, where Spain would list under a Europe menu) could help with handling large lists as well. Please let me know if you have any any other questions or enhancements you'd like to see.

Thanks,
