Field list of items alphabetical order

[jacobg]

Hi

Is there a way to decide in which order all items from a field (multiple entity names) are shown?

At the moment we seem to have the items listed in the opposite order as to what we’d like. For example:

We’d like to see the latest version first (inverse the current alphabetical order), since users are interested to know what the latest version is and potentially click on it.

Since the list can get quite long opting for ‘wrap text’ is not really an option.

It is not a huge deal, but if we are not able to show the order in which items are shown in the field we are opting for hiding a field which we thought would have been really useful on our default setup.

Thanks

Jacob

How do I submit an idea or feature request?

If you’ve got an idea or need for a feature, you can submit it directly to our product team over on our public roadmap . When you submit an idea, your feedback is delivered to our product team and the product owner of that area of Shotgun will review and determine next steps. The best ideas are the ones that explain why this would be useful in your workflow and how you would use it. This helps the product team to understand if there is a need to be filled. While the roadmap is the best place …
