    When sorting items in the Snatching column of BTM Snatch Configuration, it does not sort alphabetically. It sorts the items by:

    1) "NIL" items
    2) blue items
    3) green items
    4) purple items
    5) white items

    Even among the like-colored groups, there is no alphabetical sorting. Is alpha sorting possible here, or is this window looking at some invisible, numerical code? Thanks!

    Numerical code, Blizzards hyperlink markup language that tells the server to display a link.

    Is that example uniform throughout all WoW items? If so, it seems like a coder could tell the software to start sorting by the 39th character ("B") instead of the status quo.

    yes it is uniform, the problem is saying the 29'th char that is not ALWAYS the start of the name etc.. those numbers all change in size etc...

    Then it's not uniform. :(

    Maybe someday this characteristic can be addressed. In a list of 40 Snatch items it's hard to find the one you want without some way to sort the list.

    There still may be some sort of way to do this by simply adding a name only field at the end for sorting that doesn't actually have a hyperlink... can you add a jira for this and link back here with it, I can take a look at it when I get a chance but fear I may forget if I don't have something to reference
