The order of labels issue #3

Closed guosoun closed 2 months ago

guosoun commented 2 months ago

If the nodes are numbered from 1 to n, and n is a two-digit number, then Current Nodes will sort the nodes in lexicographical order, such as 1 10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9, while the order of labels given in the problem is often 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, which makes editing labels very annoying.

One solution I came up with is to add a switch to adjust the sorting method, switching between lexicographical order and numerical order from smallest to largest. However, when there are non-numerical values in Current Nodes, the numerical order from smallest to largest should be disabled

Hi, as a quickfix for now, would you be alright if I made the default sorting method such that all numbers go in front of non-numerical values, and these numbers will be sorted in numerical order, while the non-numerical values will be sorted in lexicographical order.

When I eventually start working on the new UI, I'll add more options for users to select their preferred sorting method.

Thank you for your quick response and the proposed workaround; I think it’s a great solution! I am looking forward to the development of the new UI and trying out more sorting options. Thanks again for your support and efforts!

It has just been implemented, do let me know if the new behavior is weird/buggy (you might have to use ctrl+shift+r if the change doesn't show up right away). Thanks for trying out this tool and your feedback/suggestions are always welcome!
