Have any of you noticed that the Project Explorer is no longer in chronological order. It has been changed to 'by name'. Is there a way to change this back or has it been hard coded in?

Cheers

Hey Bevan, 

Can you tell me what version you were using before? The points have always been ordered by name to the best of my knowledge, the imported files should still be in the order of collection though. Are you seeing this with the imported files?

Hey Shane.

Thanks for the reply. Using 5.4 before.

Not sure if i was specific enough before. I was referencing to the imported files tab within project explorer.

See pic below from a work colleague who is still on 5.4. See how below its not ordered by name. It was always ordered by when it came into TBC which was awesome from tracking point of view. The latest file imported was always on the bottom of the import list. Its now sorted by name which for me is a real pain.

Same for me - I noticed it after an upgrade from 5.4 to 5.50 

Previously the Project Explorer sorted all files in Imported sequence (it was a pain for the below reason)

I always wished for Sort by File Name so I could audit and check I'd imported all files - I had to do it through View Filter Manager 

But now its changed I'd like the option to do BOTH .... by Name or Imported sequence

Yes to this. I would love to have control on how the sequence is done.

Is there any word yet on whether this will change back, or become configurable in future versions?

Hey Bob.

Who knows. I spoke with our Trimble rep and he said they were looking at making it configurable but alas two revisions (1 major) later nothing. For me having it in order of what is imported was amazing. Something I boasted to other software users and new TBC users. Such a good feature. Being able to drop a file in, go to the bottom of the list right click and select all members was great.  I get that other people may like it by name but why the hell change it and not make it configurable. 

Maybe you can get some traction on it. 

Regards

Bevan

Hey Bevan and Bob, 

This is resolved in the next release and now have the option to sort by file name or sort by import order. 

If you are part of the Beta Group you could rest this in the latest Beta Build. 

Let me know if you have any other questions. 

Regards,

Shane Lyons
