request for next release - ability to sort & order Actions

Very useful would be the ability to move the order of actions up or down in the Actions / Modifiers tab. I often have a dozen, if not more, actions / modifiers for one image / button property, and would like to be able to rank the actions together with simple move up / move down arrows.......

thanks

Stu

Same thing for the SKIN list.
In alpha/numeric order where filename special characters like _ -- then numbers then alphabetic characters in the file name is sorted to the top.
We should not get an ordered list like 1, 11, 2, 3, 33. Should be 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, 10,11.

This, you can sort yourself for now (albeit a little work). It's just a matter of changing the filing name. :wink:

Morning Karyn, Thanks for the suggestion... I think this help explain the issue. I should have shown the picture before. I have since started using the $d/ to get to the skin I need for a project rather than scroll endlessly though an "out of sort" very small Skin list box.

You are absolutely correct. Great observation.

It is ASCII charater set, each upper and lower case, special character like , + - / is a different ASCII code number. So the character 'a' is a different code number than 'A' .

For Sorting... the Pano2vr software must be sorting by ASCII code number. Where as MS operating system does not care.. an 'A' is same code pairing as an 'a'.

It also tells me that Pano2VR software is doing the skin file name sorting rather than relying on the Window Operating system.

Thank you for solving the mySTERy.
