[Feature Request] Add icons to column headers to indicate sort direction
Summary:
You can click on a column header to sort by it, and to change the sort direction. However there's currently no indication as to which column a table is currently sorted by, or in what direction.
I suggest adding an icon (like an up or down arrow/caret) to the currently-sorted column header in the direction that it's sorted.
For example, here's what it looks like now when sorted by Name (asc):
And here's what I'm suggesting it could look like instead:
The problem I think is the custom views we're using. The same problem occurs when reordering the columns, there's no visual indicator that you're dragging something.
I'll investigate it a bit more.
Isn't the interface using some Qt? If it is, I think someone can look at Qbittorrent for inspiration how this can be done. There both the up / down arrows appear for showing the sorting order and the columns can also be moved. Albeit for moving, I don't see any clear visual indication between which columns I'm dropping the one that I'm dragging.
