matt.york Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) Dear Friends, I like the ISY very much! How is the order of the items listed determined? For example in this menu we can see the first 2 entries http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Node BdRm 1-1 Fan Light BdRm 1-A SW I want to move BdRm 1-A SW to the top of the list I found an unusual way to reorder this list. create folder add device to folder remove it from the folder which then moves it to the bottom of the list. Is there an easier to move devices to show up at the top? How can this be changed in the Web UI? Matt Edited July 11, 2017 by matt.york

As per the usual database and spread sheet ordering in MS products, UDI has implemented the technique to mouse click on the top line where the titles of the columns are.

stusviews Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Devices are listed alphanumerically for convenience (in finding them). The order has absolutely no effect on the order in which signals are sent, tasks are accomplished. You cannot rearrange the order. However, if you screen shows columns, then you can reorder a column in forward or reverse order, again, for convenience in locating a device (e.g., Insteon ID, name, etc.).
matt.york Posted July 11, 2017 Author Posted July 11, 2017 Thanks Larry and Stu! We have lots of devices listed. Each of my 4 AEOTEC MultiSnesors contributes 4 lines (Temperature, Binary, motion and tamper) totaling 16 lines just for the sensors. We also have fans, irrigation and light fixtures We have several users who will access the ISY via the Web User interface and we need to to simplify their experience. As I mentioned in my original post, I found an unusual way to reorder this list on the universal Devices Administrative Console.. create a folder add a device to that folder remove it from the folder which then moves it back to the bottom of the original ISY list. However this does not manifest on the Web user interface. Is there anyway to change the order on the Web user interface?
stusviews Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Anytime a device is added to a folder, it will be at the bottom of the list. but after you log out and later log in, the device will take its alphanumeric position. Your solution is temporary
