Reorder Blocks in browser

[francesco.tonioni]

Requesting the possibility to reorder imported Autocad blocks in Inventor browser.

When many blocks are imported it is not easy to manage them.

Curios as to why this was archived?  This is a viable and legitimate question.  These Blocks in question do not share properties.  They do not build upon each other in a normal browser setting.  Why would you not be able to re-order the blocks?  Our company uses a standard part template that has blocks pre-loaded and ready to drop and utilize in sketches.  To ask a company to create these blocks in order such as size for structural steel or a multitude of other required theories is insane.  

I conquer that these should be able to be sorted in any fashion required by the user.  I'm curious as to why this would not be a standard function in the beginning.

i would like to vote for this idea as well. I think it is a sensible practical suggestion. 

@inv.ideareview  can we un-archive this?

@william , Reset to Gathering Support per your request.  I also like this idea.  😉 -Dan

There are several request for this under different verbiage.   Perhaps if they were combined there would be sufficient motivation for Autodesk to implement this.  It has come up repeatedly since well before 2016.  It can't very well gather support if it keeps getting archived.

I also have a need to be able to reorder sketch blocks and autocad blocks in the browser.
