[Attribute Editor]custom attribute-fixed data-droplist:order

Post by William » Thu Apr 17, 2025 5:50 pm

Hi Dan,

In previous TDL versions (e.g. 8.x.x), the custom task attributes with list types "fixed data, single-selection" or "fixed data, multi-selection",
showed, in the edit fields and filter fields, droplists with choices in the same order as they were (logically) entered in the default data field of the 'custom task attributes' dialog.

In TDL 9 this is still the case for a 'custom task attribute's' filter field, however its edit field is sorted now alphabetically.
If possible, would you please consider, to show the droplist of its edit field in the same order as it was entered in the default data field of the 'custom task attributes' dialog.

As in previous TDL versions (e.g tdl 8.3.12), if one wants to see a droplist alphabetically sorted, one could enter it alfabetically in the default data field of the 'custom task attributes' dialog,
and if one wants to see a droplist logically sorted, one could enter it logically sorted in the default data field of the 'custom task attributes' dialog.

Having a droplist with logically sorted choices, is very helpful.

Thank you for all the effort you put into this great application.
