Re: Sort TOC entries alphabetically
Welcome to the forums!
You can sort the TOC temporarily by switching to the Grid View of the TOC Editor and then sorting by the Title column. This doesn't affect the order of the TOC items within the TOC file itself; it's just a different way to view the TOC.

Hi again,
sorting the TOC permanently is the feature I am looking for.
Maybe I need to propose that as a new feature für the next flare version...

Re: Sort TOC entries alphabetically
You may want to look at XML tools that can sort entries. Flare does not mind if files are edited externally as long as the file itself remains formally correct. Before experimenting make a backup.
