While the new domain tools in 10.1 are a good addition I would like to be able to manually re-order a domain that is not in any alphabetical order such as below.
The Domain Tools from http://resources.arcgis.com/gallery/file/geodatabase/details?entryID=D62A883B-1422-2418-8873-5721AB3... that could be added to previous arcgis versions were great. Something similar to how that would allow you to manually-ish reorder a domain would be a useful tool.
I wasn't able to get that sample to work in 10.1.
My org is using a Domain Sort Add-In tool that had been downloaded many, many years ago which still works in 10.5.1 and hopefully still works in 10.7. The link for the download from the OP does not work (not surprising as it is 7 years old).
Would anyone know if this functionality is already/will be built into ArcMap's successor ArcPro? This is really a core tool for GIS admins so it would be important to make it available to Pro so org's can make a complete migration to Pro.
(Coded value) Domain sorting is supported out of the (tool) box with the Domain Toolset
This doesn't help Peter Russell or anyone else who wants to manually order a domain.
If you feel like hacking there's this....https://community.esri.com/blogs/HackingArcSDE/2014/12/31/re-order-attribute-domain-values
Are you using this hack in Pro? This hack allows you to place coded value domains in any order you like? This is the use case that I am looking at as my org does not have all coded value domains in alpha-numeric order for business reasons. This would be a needed tool if we migrated our SDE admin tasks to Pro, as the Add-In currently used is only available for ArcMap/ArcCatalog.
For a bit of manual 'hacking' it is possible to manually reorder a domain, but it's a real PITA. Hence why this idea is important.
Each time you rename a subtype, it will be tossed to the end of the table, and this is how it will be presented to LE users.
If you want to rename an entry (e.g. 'South Esk Water' to 'Deprecated') and keep its order, you must use the above procedure to rename that subtype and all subsequent subtypes. Do not ask why, just thank Esri for this 'feature'!
It would be a nice feature to manually re-arrange the domain values. But I was able to re-order the domains this way:
Hopefully this helps someone. But I'd still like to be able to manually move them, too.
