Change the order of Graphic View screens

[Matias Saul]

Hi,

I need to change the order (or the viewID) of my screens in Graphic View module. I use Mango 2.7.2.

Is there any way to do this? I remember, in previous versions, if I made any change on a specific screen, it was saved in the first position...

Thanks in advance!

Hmm. It's not particularly easy, but I think it is possible.

One way would be to export a view, delete it, and then this would move it to the bottom of the list.

An easier option is to modify Mango/web/modules/graphicalViews/web/views.jsp and adding something like this before the closing </tag:page>

//Code taken from googling "sort option elements javascript"
// but adapted for $ meaning dojo
var newOptions = jQuery(".borderDiv select option").sort(function(a,b){
	  if (a.text.toUpperCase() > b.text.toUpperCase()) return 1;
	  else if (a.text.toUpperCase() < b.text.toUpperCase()) return -1;
	  else return 0;
});
jQuery(".borderDiv select").empty().append(newOptions);

Hi Phil!

I did what you suggested, I added the code to the end of the file. It works correctly, the views are in alphabetic order now.
However, the view-selector drop-down menu works incorrectly. The selected view is not the view I can see on the webpage (but the last one). The result is that I cannot select the last view, because the list "thinks" that this is selected already.

Could you please fix this for me?
Thank you!

Hi gbodacs,

Change

jQuery(".borderDiv select").empty().append(newOptions);

to

jQuery(".borderDiv select").empty().append(newOptions).val("<c:out value="${currentView.id}"/>");

Thank you, it works in my sandbox Mango environment! :) You just saved me 4 hours of exporting-textediting-deleting-importing-testing nightmare!

Thanks again!
