order of hosts within a group

Open tolgaulas opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

Currently hosts are displayed in order they are created. It would nice to be able re-order them by drag & drop ideally, or by changing their order up and down..

Yeah I can see that being useful, I will have to think about how to implement it.

Right now you can switch the ordering on a per-folder basis with these buttons image between alphabetical and last-used orders, but yeah these do not apply to individual connections and do not allow for custom ordering.

I thought really hard about this and implemented the most straightforward solution I came up with in the latest PTB: https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-ptb

I also experimented with more sophisticated ordering options but in practice these were too complicated and too tedious. I think in practice, being able to pin certain connections covers many cases. Especially when new connections are always added, having a more fine-grained ordering isn't very fun to use.

That's good enough. I appreciate candidly your effort.
