Messages Editor: Sort and Arrange

It is easy to sort and arrange messages in Messages Editor view.

You can sort your Messages alphabetically by clicking the A-Z sort button () on the Messages Editor toolbar (Figure 1).  The sort is based on the column currently selected.

For example, if you select the description field and press A-Z sort, the messages will be sorted alphabetically by description.  If you select the Arb ID column and click A-Z sort, the messages will be sorted numerically by arbitration ID.

It is also possible to change message order without reordering the entire message list.  Select a message and use the arrow buttons (Figure 2) to move the message up or down, one row at a time, through the list.
