Sorting caption in cuelist

[LiHo]

Hi,
is there a way to permanently re-sort the headings in a cuelist? I want to have the notes right after the steps.
Thanx, Gert

No ... but if you use a sortable number 01 02 03 ... this makes sense.
(If you want to make your life easier: open your project file with a text editor and change whatever labels you want there. Big warning: make a backup before, if you break the structure of the project file, the project will be unusable.)

As far as I can see, the headers/caption positions of a cuelist widget cannot be changed at all?

I think the wish to do so seems reasonable though, and it's as easy as changing a certain flag in sourcecode from false to true.

In <QLC+-srcdir>/ui/src/virtualconsole/vccuelist.cpp, line 168(when compiling against Qt5 which really everyone should do by now), after the change it should read

Code: Select all

    m_tree->header()->setSectionsMovable(true);

Making that persistent in the workspace fileis a different story, that would likely involve changes to the fileformat that would make it incompatible to older versions, I assume.

Thanx,
i don't want to change the sourcecode.
@GGGss: I have already changed a lot in the editor, but could not find the lines with the lables. Where are they or what do I have to look for

I can craft a pull request for this one-liner, if you like, so that future versions will easily allow changing column order for cue lists.

Personally I'd like to see that change, but thought there might be a reason why it was done the way it is, so I hesitated to PR immediately, in the hope some dev would comment here...

If you guys find it useful I can add it. (in v4...v5 is a pain for these kind of changes..)
Not permanent though. That's a different story as Edgar said

If it is not permanent, then it makes no sense from my point of view, because I need the previously set sequence when I start QLC.
