[Gvsig_english] POTENTIAL ERROR / SUGGESTED FUNCTIONALITY gvSIG 1.9 (BN 1253) -- Reordering column in tables

[Simon Cropper (Botanicus Australia Pty Ltd)]

Hi,

It is unclear that this can actually be done, but when you 'grab' the 
header of a table column it disassociates itself from the grid and 
appears to be able to be moved. Unfortunately it just jiggles back and 
forth while you try and move the field left or right as if the 
particular function is not working.

If the functionality does not currently exist this would be very useful.

This ability should be bundled with the routine that allows the user to 
select which fields to see, which is unfortunately hidden away in the 
properties box of the appropriate table in the project manager. This 
"properties box" should be accessible from the main menu for the table 
when viewing attributes.

Another annoying behaviour is that even when you filter what fields to 
see in the "properties box", this is ignored when you edit the attribute 
table. When you have 20-30 fields, how do you view Field1 next to 
Field40? The only solution is manually make all the field width small. 
Quite irritating considering the view is memorized and has to be 
manually expanded again.
