When moving an asset/folder via the Move action, we want this page to sort the folders alphabetically, instead of by creation date. The creation date sort is confusing to users as many do not know when a folder was created, making the desired folders difficult to find in the list.
Use-case:
Users should have the ability to sort while using the Move functionality
Current/Experienced Behavior:
Users can move asset but no feature to sort folders alphabetically it is last modified
Improved/Expected Behavior:
Users have ability to sort folders alphabetically
Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable):
This has been reported to the engineering under the internal reference SITES-22122. The product team will triage this request to verify feasibility based on the prioritization model. This post will be updated according to the Jira request status.
My 2 cents on this topic @kautuk_sahni , @cbunchjr From a performance perspective, this might be a no-go as sorting nodes adds extra overhead and if you have a very large tree, then it may even cause the whole process to fail.
@Harwinder-singh , there is already a sorting node there now that sorts by creation date just not alphabetically. Your scenario is invalid as your use case would occur with the way it is currently built today for very large tree. In other Adobe Marketing Cloud Products there is this functionality.
