Component arrangement
Hi, I was wondering if the compenent's order can be re-arrenged in the webapp or if the only way is to recreate them and delete the former ones.
Thanks

Hi Riccardo,

I am in the process of making a full App Design studio but it's not going to be ready for some time as it's a huge job.

I know what you are talking about and it's been annoying me too! I'll see if I can make quickly a simple re-arranging of components, it shouldn't be too difficult add that in the Dev Console (to make it in the App is bit trickier and would be a waste of time because once finished the App Design studio will handle it all)

One thing that I can't change at the moment easily is the order in the app widget, it's automatic and arranges any text components first and then buttons as otherwise it looks really messy and can be difficult to read.

Give me couple of days and I'll add this in the Dev Console

Well, this was a lot easier than I thought!?

You can now re-arrange the component order through the Dev Console and when you hit "Save" it will automatically update the Web App.



Usage

When you open a component details in the right corner you will find up/down arrows, simply click the arrow to move the component up/down in the list.

Make sure to press save when you have finished and if you have the App open at the same time with that device details open you will see in few seconds the components re-arrange themselves in the same order as in the Dev Console.

Enjoy ✌️
