Sort order for 'layout' element.
#2

Hi Alex,


Quote:When you use a database to fill a layout element, with 'multiple rows' selected, you can set the order of display.

However, this is limited to a singe key - it really needs to be multiple keys. Even the simple example (Contacts) is not effective - having e.g. all the 'Smith"s in random order rather than sub-oder by first name.


I've added a feature request for this; it is certainly necessary given your example.


Quote:A 'table' element allows sorting by multiple keys - though I can't remember how to do that, or how get there. The navigation is, I find, sometimes unclear. 
 

I believe you have to click on the column headers in order to sort by that column. You can do multi-key sorts by clicking on one column first, then on a second.


Quote:Also, the 'nocode' dialog for layout has no 'cancel' button, while the 'table' one does - no big deal, but an unnecessary inconsistency.


Good eye, I've added a case to fix this.


Quote:Another example of navigation doubt - the IDE opens in 'project selection' screen, but once I've opened a project, I can't find a way to get back to the project selection screen to work on a different one (of course, I can simply close the IDE, re-start it, type in my password - and then select a different project).


You can return to the main project screen by clicking on the "user" icon in the top right corner of the screen, and then choosing "Home". I'll make a note of this so our UX team can take a look.

Thanks again for your feature requests/bug reports!
