<p>Hi Matthias,</p>
<p>If there are no negative side effects - I'd like to see the same behaviour like in spreadsheets - an always ascending list, starting from 1 - regardless of the order of the rows.</p>
<p>Would this be a lot of work to change this?</p>

But not even that, often<br /> they are "feature id - 1", but that's not guaranteed at all.<br /><br /> We could make it match the feature id. Or the current index in the table<br /> like you propose.<br /><br /> Matthias<br /><br /> On 06/16/2016 08:56 AM, Neumann, Andreas wrote:

I think, from a<br /> users perspective, because these numbers are not present in the data,<br /> that it would be more useful if they always stay ordered from 1 to xxx<br /> or 0 to xxx, regardless of sorting.<br /><br /> Thank you for your feedback.<br /><br /> Andreas<br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /> _______________________________________________<br /> Qgis-developer mailing list<br /><a href="mailto:Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org">Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br /> List info: <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a><br /> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a><br /><br /></blockquote>
