We have a lot of objects in our Cloudstack environment so when it comes to listing, domains, accounts, networks, volumes, instances etc. it is a laborious task trying to find items because nothing is sorted logically. It would be great to have list tables where you can click the column heading to sort a list based on that column. Thanks for your attention. Paul -- Andrija Panić

Re: [ASK] Is it possible to sort lists in Cloudstack UI?
Hi, I almost forgot about this :-) If we can come up with something we all agree on, I can give it another try and create a pull request. In the original tread we said we didn’t want to do it on the server side. Do we still agree? We talked about sorting domain drop down lists but there’s probably more. A few months back I changed the display format as well to be able to use the keyboard for fast selection, but most people didn’t like it. So it’s probably best to just sort the domains by path and the others by name. As I’m not a UI guy, I cannot help with making columns that you can click to sort. I also notice a lot lot duplicate code for fetching and parsing objects. The quickest solution for me is to add the sorting and leave the rest as-is. Unless someone willing to refactor it? Let me know the best way I can help!

Re: [ASK] Is it possible to sort lists in Cloudstack UI?
As long as it's clear that the GUI may not contain all of the info in its current view of the data, I don't see a problem with us offering sorting support on a column-by-column basis. Perhaps one of our GUI-focused people could comment, though.
