Hi,
V2 user here. V3 now. Before, there was a button to click to sort the Characters alphabetically. Can’t see that now?
How can I alphabetically sort the characters in the Characters panel. Same question for the places in the Places panel.
Thanks!

This isn’t currently available in version 3, however it is something that has been requested before, so it is on our list to look at adding in the future.

In the absence of being able to alphabetize the names, please explain an efficient way for me or students to find characters on the list?
I think the search function would be best.
Hi,
I think you may have missed my point? My question was relative to efficiency.
When you say “best” here, it seems you’re really saying “a way”, or even “the only way”?
You’re right, we CAN use search.
But “a way” and even “the only way” seem categorically different from an efficient way?
It seems fair to say that there ISN’T really an efficient way?
How do you see things?
Sincerely,
Blaise
I mean “best” because it’s the best option you’ve got, bud.
