Is there a way to change files order in the project window ?

Other then manually edit the xml file *.pbp ?

I would like to keep some files visually near each other, and when in time I add a new file this inevitably drop at the end of the list.

Unless I'm missing something...

Aren't they added in an alphabetical order?

Nope, when I add a new one it goes right to the bottom.

Anyway, even if it was added and then sorted, that wouldn't help me.

I would like to organize them in the order I prefer. Seem strange something like that is missing.

I don't see any "move up" / "move down" buttons, arrows, etc. for that.

I always thought they were alphabetized :shock:

Would be nice to be able to order them yourself though.

Under the File Menu you will find 'Sort Sources', which you can use to arrange the files as required.

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

There is no way for that in the GUI at the moment. I can add some drag & drop possibilities in the project options to change the order.

Thank you, it's not vital but would be useful to keep some kind of visual order in medium/big projects. :)
