Change behavior of numerical ordering

This would be a wish for Intella as well as Connect.

 

When using numbers for tags from 1-12 Intella/Connect will both number in the following fashion:

1

10

11

12

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

 

Normally this is not a major issue as I will just change the tag to be 01, 02, 03 etc and then they will appear in order, however in a current matter we are working on I am setting up a predefined list of tags for a client which need to directly respond to a report which is using numbered paragraphs.

 

So now the tags will appear out of order on Connect.

 

Only a small issue but I don't imagine it would be too difficult to get Intella/Connect to treat 1 as if it were 01 when applying tag names etc..

Hi Adam, you are right that this might be annoying. The sorting that is used there is lexicographical sort, the default one. Changing that in a manner that you described would require to have an alphanumeric sort, which is more human friendly. I'll consider adding this, because it certainly makes the tags labels easier to read.
