Line Attribute order

rm
Advisor
I have not been able to find a way to re-order the lines in my lines pallet. Meaning, I want to place similar lines by name next to each other. For some reason, when you create a new line type, ArchiCAD just places it in some random order in the list. Seems odd we cannot re-order them alphabetically or by type of line. Or maybe we can, but I am missing how that is done.

If we cannot do that, would like to see this added in in the future!

No it is not possible to re-organise them.
They are in groups - solid line - standard lines - symbol lines.
Then they are in order of attribute number within those groups.
The only way to re-organise them within those groups is to play around with the attribute number - which is not a good idea.

Here is a previous post about re-organising fills and lines.
Fills can be re-named but this does not affect the order of lines.
