Sometimes it is useful not only to find item by XmlFind, but to know value of some of its properties. For small amount of items I can look it in it's property gump. But for large... Also I can't sort (xmlspawner/up22.gif xmlspawner/down22.gif ) them based on value in some property.

For example, I want to find all murders and see, who is at top of them without looking at everyone's Kills property. It will be very 'user-friendly' rolleyes.gif if XMLFind gump can show this property in itself. And, of course, to sort by it.

What do You think? %)

ps sorry, I mistook this thread with XMLSpawner Feature Request's. May be relocate my post? %)

sorting on a property field is a good idea and I like the idea of having a display field for a specified property. The only real issue is gump real estate. It is already a little crowded so I may have to add some sort of field display control.
I'll look into it.

Maybe simply remove all current fields (except name) and make a mechanism to set what fields to show? ( while I do not see how %( )
Another suggestion in design: if you redesign left search panel in the way that it'll be hidden when search is done, you'll have another 100px on screen to show properties %)

what I'm thinking of is adding something like the multiple page buttons

xmlspawner/page1.bmp xmlspawner/page2.bmp xmlspawner/page3.bmp xmlspawner/page4.bmp

that would xmlspawner/switch2.gif the displayed fields (I wouldnt use those exact icons to avoid confusion)

or maybe have a Fields: xmlspawner/left22.gif xmlspawner/right22.gif set of buttons that would let you advance through the available fields.

I would keep the Name and Type, but the area that is now used for displaying Location, Map, and Owner would flip between different sets of fields, like the Property Value and perhaps some other useful information.
