Alphabetize "Available Buttons"?

When doing a periodic reorganization of the Toolbar - both OEM and CTB - having to repeated scroll through the Available Button list to find a certain item winds up consuming a lot of valuable time. Is there a way to display it in alphabetical order? Having them at random is extremely primitive. Any type of organization would be an improvement over that.

From my understanding, the OEM buttons are not random but are rather grouped into functional collections. For example, "Cut", "Copy" and "Paste" are next to each other as they are related in terms of their functionality.

Hummmm. When analyzed that way it appears you're correct. But given the great universal scheme of things wouldn't many users find the alphabetical order concept more intuitive? Or an option to display them that way.

(Clearly Don thought otherwise.)

Tip: type a letter and the list will jump to the next item beginning with that letter.

A very handy tidbit of information. Not the same as alphabetical order but close enough for government work. :mrgreen:
