Grid Sorting – sort by multiple columns

SHIFT + CLICK

Here’s a handy tip for when you’d like to sort by multiple columns, for example, when setting your sort order in a Cabinet. Say you’d like to first sort by the Date of Writing column, and then by the Date Sent/Received column, then you’d:

1. Click on the Date of Writing column until the sort direction is facing upwards (chronological order); then
2. Hold the SHIFT key and click on the Date Sent/Received column until the sort direction is also facing upwards.

This is particularly useful where there is a conversation thread (e.g. emails) on the same day, and you’d like the conversation to also be in order.

SPACEBAR

For users who prefer keyboard navigation and shortcuts as opposed to mouse-led navigation, did you know you can use the Spacebar? Just tab through a dialog that has a Tickbox, and hitting the spacebar will toggle the Tickbox as ticked or unticked. Easy!
