Feature Request: Re-Ordering Stuff

Post by ixokai »

Re-ordering stuff in the script/trigger/alias/etc is pretty hard in Mudlet at present; it'd be nice if you could click on an item, then use hit a 'move up' or 'move down' button to .. move it up one or down one :)

I agree. I'm OCD about organization and not being able to reorder my stuff easily or sort alphabetically has been a bit frustrating. Would be a nice improvement.

sorting alphabetically could prove bad, since things fire/are compiled in the order they appear in the list in the screen editor. But I do think some sort of up move-up move-down mechanism would be good...


and perhaps a right click menu, containing:

export
copy
move-up
move-down


?

A right-click menu sounds fine, because the 'select and press up/down key' is bad - that should change the currently selected script, not move them.

Actually, I was thinking more of a toolbar button then the the actual physical and down button :)

Right-click would be /really/ annoying if you're moving stuff lots of steps. Really, really annoying.

What? :)

The problem with right-click is its so click heavy.

Lets say I wanna move something up four spots; right-click, up; move mouse; right-click up, move mouse; right-click, up, move mouse, etc.

But if you're really opposed to toolbar buttons, a right-click is better then nothing :)

Keyboard shortcut for the right click up/down options.
