When accessing a FPGA control / indicator from the HOST, a ~property node is used, and the developer has to pick the right control / indicator from a list
When there's lots of items on the list, it can be a pain to scan the list for the right one.
At the moment they are listed in order they were created on the FPGA.
Could they instead be listed in alphabetical order? Or give the developer the choice?
Of course you can change tabbing order manually from the edit menu, anyway if you have to handle hundreds controls it's hard to reorder them everytime you do a change for maintain alphabetical order.
If you have that many controls on an FPGA front panel, you are likely doing something wrong. Maybe chnage to using a DMA to send command and data to the FPGA. That makes it a lot more scalable and use a lot less resources.
