"Save"
the more I save, the more stable IV is.
When working with large assemblies, the "Re-Order" ipt's within the browser window to be sorted in Part-Number sequence.
Waiting for the "Control ^C" button to halt a command.

I agree with blair, a button to sort items in the browser pane in part number sequence would be awesome. I use a macro to do this currently, but it is limited by the fact that you can't move component patterns within the browser. It would also be nice to be able to sort items in my .ipt broswer pane as well.

This is good. I believe it's using the same "AlphaSortComponents" that I'm using, but this is a little cleaner than mine. Unfortunately, it still fails for me when component patterns are present in the browser pane.

I guess I should have been clearer, I do use the "Sort" button within the Productivity Panel alot. I like to keep my items within a IAM file sorted in the browser alpha-numerically. It's much easier to find items.
Still waiting for the "Easy" button!
