13.17.3 Sorting with Fields

The field columns inside the Grid can be used to sort the ports in your design.

The hierarchical order is defined by the order of the columns (left to right). The data within each field is sorted alphabetically. To change the hierarchical view, select a column and drag the column to the left or the right.

For example, this may be useful if you wish to see all of your INPUT ports together or if you want to see all of your 8-bit busses together. The image below shows the Display Panel sorted by Port Name.
