Beefed up sorting
Right now I can sort siblings - in ascending order.
I'd like to be able to sort: - children - by date - by flag etc. I can do some of these from within the related items panes, but that's not the same as being able to do it in the Data Explorer. Also - it would be nice if I could set the sort function in the item attributes pane. I envision two fields to accomplish this. #1 would let me tell UR whether an item's children should be sorted. #2 would specify the kind of sort. Finally - for now  - it would be oh-so- cool to be able to do secondary and even tertiary sorts. That's probably asking way too much, but I just wanted to make the suggestion ...IMHO - In general, things I can do in the related items panes ought to be doable from the DE unless it really makes no sense or is overly difficult and/or expensive to implement. thanks Bal - Another thought: I'd like to be able to sort on two other things - in both ascending and descending order: * the size (disk space) that a node and its children take up and * the number of descendants (children, grandkids, great grandkids, etc.) Last edited by wordmuse; 11-23-2006 at 09:01 AM.

If you uncheck the Alphabetical sort when adding children to new items check box on the Trees tab of the Tools | Options dialog, Ultra Recall will use the order inserted as the sort in tree.
In addition, you can always switch to a manual ordering by simply ordering the siblings "by hand" using drag & drop, or with the keyboard (Ctrl+Shift+UP or DOWN). You can later switch back to alphabetical ordering if desired with the menu (Tree | Sort Siblings) - or by right-clicking on an item and clicking the same entry.
