Organizing your work with Moves and Sorts. The next screens we are going to look at have user populated grids and lists.

The grids and lists can quickly become a jumbled mess which can make it hard to read and debug. Recent changes have improved our ability to organize these grids. We can sort and move the keys around to make them more readable.

You can sort most grids and list boxes by clicking column headers. Sorting on multiple sort keys can be achieved by clicking headers in succession, starting with the most minor sort key. As is usual, successive presses of the same header reverse the sort order. The list boxes of the Devices, Protocols and Learned Signals pages can also be sorted, but as these do not have headers, there are instead entries on the right-click menu to sort them.

You can also move 1 or more lines in a grid. Select 1 or more rows, and then drag them with the mouse. In the case of grids, the in the case of grids, the drag must be started in the left-most (row number) column.

There are buttons on the toolbar, and corresponding entries on right-click menus, to undo moves and sorts and also to re-do them after they have been undone. Up to eight levels of moving or sorting can be undone and redone, independently for each grid or list box.
