Recommendation: Sort Element Name in Binding Alphabetically (or allow for pre-sort on typed entry)

30 May 2025, 22:12

Hey Noesis Team,

I have been using the studio for a little over a week now and I really love it! One challenge I did run into with larger projects with many smaller controls was finding specifically named items in hierarchy when using the " name > element name" binding (like when you're using the selection of one on-screen ListBox to drive data to an information panel elsewhere on the screen).

The order of the items in the element name list doesn't necessarily match the hierarchy order and you can't manually copy/type in a specific item into the field either, so if you have a project with many small or nested components, it can take awhile to find the item you're looking for.

If it's not too complicated to implement it could sort automatically the navigator elements by alphabet if you can't copy in the item you know you want. At least that way it could speed up finding the right item in the navigator.

Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion! That panel is going to be redesigned, could you please create a ticket for this?
