| Enhancement | Now sorting Main Views in the side navigation purely by position in the app
Previously, when multiple main views had the same position (for instance, 'last' or 'middle'), we would group them together but then sort them alphabetically. This was maybe helpful for finding views, but didn't correlate with how the views are actually presented left to right in the app footer, and so could be confusing since it is reasonable to expect they'd be in the same order. We've removed the secondary alphabetical sort. |
