One of the bigger challenges in my setups has been Custom Sorting. I work in film and there are things that are VERY specific in how they are displayed. There are also lists that are used in multiple areas, and things that need to be sorted or grouped in specific ways and are used in multiple pages/reports etc.
This is generally accomplished with Select Lists in the tables themselves, Helper Tables with extra fields for sort order, specific extra naming to add numerical or alpha prefix to the Display field name…differences depending on the doc Maker.
It occurs to me that Coda could use the existing infrastructure and add the ability to set up Custom Presets on an account or Doc basis. Take this Group options for example:
The Custom option in the dropdown when selected could open a second dropdown which shows your Account or Doc setups. These would be added in, let’s say, the Doc Settings (perhaps right under Page Options). You set up your special lists in the order you want them ONCE. They can then be used all over the place as Presets. Grouping, Sorting, Select Lists in tables…so many possibilities. So instead of having to do that Manage groups every time, you use a pre-existing setup.
It is possible this is something that is very specific to me, but I can see it being helpful for everyone!
