[Solved] Qt Creator - shouldn't the methods be sorted in alphabetical order on the drop down?

fcrochik

I know it can a matter of preference but I can't imagine people adding methods on alphabetical order to the c++ file and can't imagine that the order you add them to the c++ file have any extra importance...

Just gathering feedback before I add as a suggestion to the bug tracker

If you say about methods realized in cpp file, you may uncheck this checkbox:

If you say about code completion dropdown - I think ABS sort is most reasonable.

Forcing it to be alphabetical is not good IMHO, but this might be a very nice option. I actual do order my methods in may cpp file so it is of some importance to me that the tool will not change my order to be simply alphabetical.

You just made my day. I can't believe it was there and I didn't know about it.... Thank you!

I also "sort" my methods on the cpp by importance or "group" that is why it is so important to me to have the alphabetical order when I am looking for some no "close related" method.

I try to change IDE Netbeans to QtCreator, so I'm a newbie.

Is this checkbox implemented already ?

vsorokin

yes, just my previous screenshot seems gone,
Ok, I made another one.

Thank you for your reply.

I mean to say about a sidebar outline pane.
When I do right click on the outline pane, I can find only "all spread" and "all fold".( I'm not sure the message, because I'm using Japanese version. )
