idea Setting up sort order in the Attributes window in ArcGIS Pro Ideas https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/setting-up-sort-order-in-the-attributes-window/idi-p/930093 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>I have a point feature class. Assume the point feature class represents an apartment house.<BR /><BR />This feature is related to a table through a one to many relationship class - the related table holds data on customers living in this apartment house.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />Selecting the point feature I may open the Attributes dialog to see attributes hereon. I may also unfold each relationship class to see data on related customers. These records are identified by the Display Field or Display Expression - as we're dealing with people a relevant Display Field / Expression would be the Customer Name.<BR /><BR />This is all nice.<BR /><BR />But I do not want the customers (the many records being related to the one point feature) to be ordered by their name.<BR /><BR />It would make much more sense to users seing the related customers ordered by eg. flat number. So far this is not possible.<BR /><BR />Each of the customers have several meter readings (electric consumption). I would like to present the user with the consumption attribute hereby allowing for an overview of the more importanty information. But now we're back to the same need as above. I do not want the related readings to be ordered by consumption - this would make no sense. In stead I would like the related readings to be ordred by reading date - that is another filed / expression than used for displaying.<BR /><BR />Esri:&nbsp;Please allow for me to set up not only Display Field /&nbsp;Display Expression but also Orderings Field /&nbsp;Ordering Expression.<BR /><BR />Today you have some of this functionality enabled through Identify - though with faulty functionality (bug w reference number #NIM037658).<BR /><BR />I do not see any good reasons for not allowing the functionality described above similarily through Identify and Attributes.<BR /><BR />&nbsp; <!-- content transformation source ID: 08730000000btCY --> </BODY></HTML> Tue, 03 Jan 2012 08:10:08 GMT JensDalsgaard2 2012-01-03T08:10:08Z Setting up sort order in the Attributes window https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/setting-up-sort-order-in-the-attributes-window/idi-p/930093 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>I have a point feature class.
