Title: Column in tasks tab for project weight
Post by: hucker on November 27, 2020, 12:50:52 PM
I know this may be an odd thing to ask for, and maybe I'm the only one that wants it, but if you could add a tickbox to allow adding a column to show the project's weight, so I can sort by it, I'd be extremely happy :-)  I'm attached to 13 projects, some a lot higher weight than others, so it would be nice to see the important ones at the top of the list.

Like the Share% in the Projects tab?

Yes, that's the one.  I wanted to put my high priority projects at the top of the task list.  They're currently in alphabetical order.

It doesn't seem to work right.  It's behaving as though there's another sort above it, but I can't work out what.  I added the share% column, and only sorted by that (I removed the ^2 and ^3 with shift and ctrl).  If I sort by anything else like memory usage, it sorts correctly.  Sorry, rather large screenshot follows, I have a lot of computers and monitors :-)

The problem, the numbers are much much higher than I expected anyone to use.
Fixed 1.85

Oops sorry.  I do that to make rare projects like CPDN that hardly ever have work take over the machine when stuff is available.

Expect the unexpected, anyway it should work in 1.85, I tested 10,000,000

Yes, working fine thanks. I don't suppose you could introduce the ability to do a 4th tier sorting?  AFAIK there's only 3 at the moment.
