Content Center Sort Designation

I have created a simple custom content centre part.  I can't get it to sort by size/designation on placement. 

Even though I have it sorted the way I want in Content Center Editor when I exit, every time I go to place the part the designation is jumbled up.

 

When I go to the "Table View" tab, and sort by column, the numbering isn't quite right.  Also using the "Sort..." button on placement doesn't give me the result I get using the 'Sort' option in Content Center Editor - Family Table.

 

I know I could just scroll through the list until I find the size I want, but I think it would be faster if they were sorted (especially if I had more than 114 to look through).

Try and add another column called index, and edit the family table with excel. Add sequenced numbers to that column and sort by it. See if that persists upon placement.

Is it possible to add this column if rows have already been suppressed in the Table Editor?

 

When I bring the table into Excel, the suppressed rows appear hidden.
