Organization of Elements, Attributes, Analyses in Pi System Explorer

By default, everything is sorted alphabetically in PI System Explorer (PI AF). You can divide attributes into categories, but within a category the order is always alphabetical. It would be useful if you could create your own (fixed) order of the Elements, Attributes, Analyses, ... You can determine the order by assigning numbering, for example. Now I have to do this by adding the numbering at the front of the naming of the element, although I don't really want to do this. Example in annex.

    There are many potential issues that we would need to resolve for this idea to be viable. PI System Explorer is a client software therefore each user has his own settings. Therefore any setting for custom sorting would not translate between users. If there are numerous attributes, depending on the individual use case, it would be very labor intensive to mark these attributes for sorting, e.g. 150 attributes. It's uncertain if this idea would be viable and usable across our user base. Therefore, we currently do not plan on implementing this idea.
