Title: How to stop Lazarus sorting the added compoments in the unit
Post by: andyf97 on April 02, 2023, 12:24:06 pm
When I add example 15 Labels to a form, Looks like Lazarus sorts these in AlphaNumerical order, is this an option that I can turn off any re-organizing of the unit so they are just in added order.

When adding a label, in your case, change the name in something meaningful. So not label1, etc.

What the Lazarus IDE tries to do is maintain selection order. This has consequences like e.g. the TAB key.
That is a quite nice feature.
Why would you drop order? Although it can be set by hand.....

Why I would not want things re-arranged is because I am porting some D3 amongst other applications going back to 1997 and things keep shifting around and its driving me nuts.

That's why
