Ordering studies #122

Open nclaidiere opened 2 years ago

nclaidiere commented 2 years ago

In the list of studies the order is based on last on top, could we make it customisable? With say a list with numbers for instance? That would give us more flexibility.

This would be nice, but I'm marking this as won't fix for now since it's additional functionality rather than a bug fix.

My intention was to implement a search bar, but I never got around to it. Or actually I tried, but I couldn't fit the search bar in the UI nicely and then left it 😓. What ways would you like to be able to sort the studies like? Just randomly, or order them by title, creation date, etc. etc. Random sort is difficult to achieve and also requires database changes (because the sort order needs to be stored). If you just want to sort by properties of the study, I may be able to look what is possible at some point.

I am afraid this would be the random sort, where you can choose the order in which they appear, you know, two arrows on the side where you can move a study up or down in the list for instance.

Yeah, that is difficult to achieve. What would be the purpose of this? Get the most important or active studies at the top? Wouldn't archiving old stories also declutter you current studies list? And would adding a search bar alleviate this problem a bit?
