Yeah, something like that. I like to see a popup with coulmns, sorting and grouping selection: Columns (checkboxes): [x] Subject [x] Date [x] From/To [x] Size [ ] Attachment [ ] Flag ... other columns here Sorting (radio buttons): (o) None (current index_sort) ( ) Date ( ) Arrival date (not implemented yet) ( ) Subject ( ) From/To ( ) Size Order (radio buttons): (o) Ascending ( ) Descending Grouping (radio buttons): (o) None ( ) Thread ( ) Group (or sth in future) This could be a simple form or two-level menu. Any volunteers to implement this? > Hmmm.... I think all other sorting options should be disabled when > either threading or index_sort are enabled, shouldn't they? I think not. We can sort threads (root messages) by any field. -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak http://alec.pl gg:2275252 LAN Management System Developer http://lms.org.pl Roundcube Webmail Project Developer http://roundcube.net _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/
