Hi,

When using the Variables dialog, the variable list is not ordered by any user-selectable criteria. As the workflow contains many fields, locating a particular variable becomes more difficult.

Could you either order the variables by ID or Name by default, or provide buttons above the columns to let users sort the list themselves?"

Anyway, anytime that we are using variables, order is of the great help.

Thanks,

Mauricio.
