From: "Simon Taylor" <sim...@ga...> Subject: Re: [Opentracker-develop]Feature request. Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2004 17:00:04 +0100 BST How about a scheme where you can hold down shift and then define the full order=3F First column you click on becomes 1st sort column, click again to reverse sort order, click next column to select 2nd sort depth level, etc. It would mean you could set however many sorting levels you wanted fairly intuitively just by clicking on the column titles, without having to delve into sub menus or anything. Clicking without shift would clear all the current sort order and just sort by the one column clicked on.
