Order of properties in Data Portal

Status: Declined

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your request. We understand your suggestion, but on the other hand side we have customers who are happy that we sort those properties. Maybe the following extension can help a bit.

With DIAdem 2017 we implemented the option to better organize customer properties. With the character “~” you can define a hierarchy for properties like:

 

dim oGroup

set oGroup = Data.Root.ChannelGroups(x)

call oGroup.Properties.Add("PropName~SubPropNameA~SubSubPropname", "TextA")

call oGroup.Properties.Add("PropName~SubPropNameB", "TextB")

 

For more information please have a look at the DIAdem help.

Greetings

Walter

Hello,

 

In the Data Portal of DIAdem all default properties are ordered as they are specified in the documentation. But when adding new custom properties to the root or anywhere else, these properties are ordered alphabetical. It would be great if there would be a possibility to let the custom properties appear as they are added to the list.

 

Thanks,

 

Martin
