Cheatsheet sorting

[madks13]

In the project i'm working on, the hotkeys are added dynamically and statically (a few static hotkeys, 2 lists each containing elements that can have combos to apply to). The problem with adding hotkeys dynamically is that they are not sorted. For example :

• The first list contains elements with combos ranging from '1' to '5', in any order
• The second lists contains elements with combos ranging from '6' to '0' in any order

When cheatsheet is displayed, they are all displayed in the order they were added. I haven't found a way to sort the resulting cheatsheet list from the documentation.

Is it possible to add sorting of hotkeys by combo and/or description?

If you're willing to tweak the cheatsheet template, you can sort the hotkeys (I would think; haven't tried it). The project homepage documents the template (briefly).

(As an aside, if you're willing to tweak the template, you can do a lot of stuff that people ask for regarding it. Sort, scroll, multiple columns, etc. (Well, to be clear, I've only tried multiple columns, but you get the idea.))

I haven't tried this either, but it looks like if you call hotkeys.get() (with no arguments), you'll get back the whole hotkeys array. If you sort it in place (which Array.sort() does), that might also do what you want. Whether this breaks anything else is left as an exercise. :)

Well, i don't mind tinkering with libraries i use. I have changed Chocolat library to add a few features i needed for the project, but if possible i'd also like to see those features be implemented in the library officially since they're very helpful.
