Custom camera order

[David Sinclair]

A minor feature request, that I'm sure many people would enjoy: the ability to arrange the cameras in a custom order.

Currently, the cameras are displayed in alphabetic order, so I could reorder them by renaming them (e.g. prefixing with a number), but the ability to rearrange them without that hack would be nice.  Perhaps just by dragging their headers in the multi-camera view, or a camera order list in the settings.

I recognize that both concepts would be non-trivial to implement, so I don't expect this any time soon, but something for the feature ideas list.

Easy to "fix". Append a "1-", "2-" in front of your camera name.

[David Sinclair]

Yeah, I've done that as a hack, but a built-in feature would be nicer.

[John Groseclose]

That works until you get to "10," which gets displayed right next to "1," as it's an alpha sort, not alphanumeric.

[David Sinclair]

Then you could go with either "A", or renumber everything like "01", "02", etc.

I have 20 cams, but only have 9 of them active in Camect at a time, both for thumbnail display resolution, and to avoid overloading it.

I would still like the ability to reorder them without resorting to such naming hacks, though.

[Dolf Starreveld]

I used "01", "02", etc. so plenty of room for numbers, but I do second the original request here. The prefixes just to get the order as desired is cumbersome.

I would also like the ability to reorder the cameras via drag and drop or a simple tab under settings which allows changes. However, overall I couldn't be happier with this awesome product which is exactly what I'd been trying to find.

[Devesh Batra]

this would be a nice option.. trying the hack now..

I support this request as well.
