Please add support for seperate Forename and Surname fields and the ability to sort students by either - this would be awesome.

Currently, adding a new student places them to the bottom of the list, but there is no way of re-arranging. In addition to sorting as I suggested above - please add the ability to move students individually up or down - just as columns can already be moved.

many thanks!

HI Ben,
Thanks for your comments, I'll see what we can do about its.

About adding a new student and being at the bottom, it shouldn't be like that. If you've been using iDoceo since version 1 you might have to Edit every student and then Save it , this should return each student to the 'natural' alphabetic sort order. Let us know about it if you still have trouble.

Meanwhile, there is a way to rearrange students at will. On each student details , there is a field called group. To put a student on the first position , use group 10. For the second position use group 11 , third 12 and so on, you must assign a group to each student, and if two students share the same group , then it will sort them both alphabetically. Give it a try.

Thanks!

Hi Ben,
Our next release 1.4 will be available on the app Store by the end of next week, it will allow you to change a student's row position at will.
Hope you find it useful.
Thanks.
