What determines the layer sort order in Rhino? The sort option (tool) whether checked or unchecked seems to have no effect on reopen. Consistency here would be a great help. When reviewing files by layer the constant unwanted sorting is a huge annoyance (not to mention waste of time).
I’m not sure I understand this, as the user determine the sort order. Perhaps you could further define your question?
The Column Sort setting is an application-wide setting, not a per-document setting. It enables or disables column sorting - the ability to click on a column header to sort the layer list in ascending or descending order. Some users inadvertently click in column headers. So we provide the ability to disable it.
Ive noticed that when I save a file with a specific layer order, it is rarely in the same order when reopened. I’m curious as to whether this is a setting ive missed?

Hi Walt,
that YouTrack issue was created 6 years ago and is currently on the “Future” list. That means that, currently, this is not something that is considered for Rhino 8.

I understand that all updates are based on priority. I would in good spirit, like to make the following analogy.
If every morning your coders opened their visual studio and their code was saved in a different order, but still compiled, how big an annoyance would that be?
Can you please be more specific than this? I am unable to reproduce the behavior you’re reporting and I want to make sure I am following your directions correctly.
Save any file that has multiple layers, as a DWG file.
For instance, a current file I’m working on, after three saves and subsequent file opens I got the following:
First Open
2nd Open
same as above but inverted layout (no image) - no save
3rd Open
This was the result after a file save, closed and reopened (with nothing changed).
I had a co-worker also run a test on his computer with the same random results (different file).
He also mentioned it not only shuffled the layers but also selected a different active layer.
This never happens when saving as 3DM. (unfortunately, this is not an option for us).
