[Feature request] Sort Jobs by dragging and dropping

[lucato]

Hi folks, first of all nice to meet you all. 2nd I want to say thanks to Zenju and all folks that collaborated some way for creating and sharing such amazing software. I had tried before other similar software and FreeFileSync is far away much faster and better. Congratulations.

Well, here goes my first feature request:
Objective - Sort Jobs by dragging and dropping
How to achieve - From the left top window where you see the job lists, user would to sort the jobs order by dragging and dropping them (up/down).

Workaround while not implemented for those that want the same:
Rename the jobs starting with numbers and sort them by name (column header click). e.g.:
01 job name 1
02 job name 2
03 job name 3
...

Thanks and have a stunning day.
Cheers from Brazil.

Note that if multiple sync jobs are part of one and the same FFS run,
the sequence of the jobs bears no relevance.
FFS will first do the Compare of all locations involved in the sync and, based on the outcome determine sync actions. Only then an actual sync is performed according to all determined sync actions.
The sequence of the sync actions is arbitrary.

If the sequence of the (Compare and) Syncs jobs is relevant for your use,
which may be the case if there is an overlap in involved file locations,
you should explicitly execute the different syncs sequentially.

Hi Plerry, thanks for the explanation. I appreciated that. Yes, for my case I'll need to do it for the order name I place with numbers starting on it and perform sequentially as you mentioned.
Have a great weekend.
Cheers.
