[Complete] [3.08] Possible to add sorting for Zone List?
 
I have a hundred and sixty or so zones. Finding a zone is incredibly difficult since it doesn't sort the zones in the list. I have to either remember where it is on the list or painstakingly read through the list to locate the zone I'm after. Is it possible to display a sorted list rather than a list based off their ZoneId?

If you use the zone toolbar, they are already in alphabetical order. If you use the zone panel, you can left click on the panel, and mark Sort by Name. You could also group zones, making a heirarchy of zones within zones.

Thanks Rahab, that's exactly what I needed.

I especially like having a hierarchy of zones within zones. I'm not sure why I hadn't realized I could do that before. This will help make things a lot easier to navigate.

Is there any way to make the sorting permanent? I have to go in and tell it to sort alphabetically every time I open Cmud.

Could this be added onto the enhancement list if there isn't a way to make this permanent?

Edit: Since I don't know if this will ever be implemented, I've just created a perl script to reindex the zone list, sorting them alphabetically instead of their default 'as created' order.
