Object Tree Order

Is there a way to move objects up and down within the tree structure in the interface?

For example, if there is a "lamp" object and an "axe" object in a room called "cave", how can I swap the order in which the "lamp" and "axe" appear in the tree structure below the room "cave" in the interface?

I've been able to cut / paste objects to reorder them as well as change their order by moving the code in the "code view", but both methods are inefficient.

(I'm using the Windows version of Quest 5.8.0.)

Thanks for the info!

There is no possibility to sort objects of a room, except using code view

If you go to the room's "Objects" tab, you can select an object and press "Move Up" or "Move Down".

I assume that applies on the desktop editor as well; as I'm not aware of any other option that only appears in the web interface.

I thought the same as Pertex, but this does work in the desktop, too.

Once again, mrangel never ceases to impress.

Thank you both mrangel and K.V. (for the vid). This is exactly what I was looking for and it appears it works at both the Room level (below the main Objects folder) as well as the Objects within a room.
